The Art Of Doing Nothing

NATURE SUBMISSION:

There are twelve rules of enlightenment. They cover elements of Buddhist philosophy such as proper meditation, simplicity, and a constant reflection on necessity.

It’s this last part that bothers Alicia most. The more she reflects on what’s truly necessary, the more she realizes that her life has lost all sense of meaning. It’s enough to make her want to go live in the woods someplace like a hermit and just contemplate nature every day.

Nature wants nothing to do with Alicia’s existential crisis. It doesn’t care that it’s meaningless. It just wants to start recomposting her as soon as possible.
