Randomness
(Oasis – Cast No Shadow)

Randomness is useful shorthand for describing a pattern that's bigger than anything we can hold in our minds. Letting go of randomness is one of the hardest decisions a person can make.

This is probably one of the biggest reasons why humanity created religion and science -- to explain events that would otherwise be considered random. We have a need to explain the unknown; to give purpose to things without purpose. At one point in time or another, everyone has wondered about their place on Earth. What if we were born without purpose? Being and nothingness; existence before essence; to hell with divinity and faith.

Would you feel empty if you found out that you were born without purpose?

You can be born without purpose but that doesn't mean you have to live without one. Life is empty and lonely without the notion of purpose. It helps to guide us in making the right decisions. Without it I don't think you could draw the line between right and wrong; you wouldn’t question the world and how it works; you wouldn't strive for something better.

Let go of your need to explain randomness but never stop searching for your purpose in this world.
