I think all of us know that feeling- when you’re not distracting yourself with tv or drama or friends, that scary look into the darkness. Youve forgotten or lost your purpose. You’re bored and have nothing to do you care about. Nothing to keep you from thinking about it anymore. You feel the hollowness of everything and if you and it scares you. You feel uncomfortable and you want to stop this feeling and these thoughts but it’s just too late. Those moments are when you see the truth. But ignorance is bliss my friends: find a purpose, start a family, do a career you love, start some drama. Anything to keep you from the purposeless of everything

Ignorance is definitely not bliss but it’s comfortable.
Emptiness is the source of all creation. It’s very difficult, for me at least, to get to a place of emptiness and to remain there but when the ego dies things start to happen that defy all rules and concepts.
Avoiding by filling up time doesn’t seem to be the way to go.
From my POV,once the hollowness is seen it can’t be un-seen. It’s there all the time, every day a reminder of how I’m only going through the motions, performing a role. It doesn’t get easier. If the distractions are enough then it may be ignored but it’s waiting.
