So go ahead and lose yourself in liquor

And you can praise the clouded mind

But it isn't what you're thinking

No, it's the course of history, your position in line

You're just a piece of the puzzle so

I think you'd better find your place

And don't go blaming your knowledge on some fruit you ate

✨Yo**u are the universe experiencing itself**✨

Apologies for the TheFacebook tier quote to begin this piece. Not the Conor lyric, that's a classic; I mean the one below the toilet stinker.

Though, when you think about it, it's literally true. And you can take it as deeply or memely as you'd like. Ranging from the idea, as far as I understand, that everything that exists is exploded star dust (I think Daisy Duck first said that), to the broader idea that everybody manifests our own personal universe.

Turns out, you have to be very specific about generating this mutated version of Donald and Daisy.

For me, I began gaining a deeper appreciation for that quote when my six year old asked me what was going on with the fighting on the other side of the world. Before I could muster some “go ask your mom” type response, she shared her perspective, which is probably my favorite I've heard regarding this century old conflict:

I think this would be better if everybody would just settle down and find a solution

I wasn’t even going to add an image but then The Artiste just dropped this 🎤
