  • For a million years,

  • weve watched the sky

  • and huddled in fear.

  • But somehow you still find yourself

  • quietly rooting for the storm.

  • As if a part of you is tired of waiting

  • wondering when the world will fall apart

  • by lot,

  • by fate,

  • by the will of the gods

  • almost daring them to grant your wish.

  • But really, you can wish all you want,

  • because life is a game of chance.

  • And each passing day is another flip of the coin.

  • Lachesism.

  • You can’t help but take this life for granted.

  • Your eyes adjust to the color of the walls

  • and your ears tune out the chatter

  • As if your body’s trying to filter out

  • the world as you know it.

  • And while your brain goes numb

  • trying to shake off your complacency,

  • your heart can’t sit still,

  • and your gut is hungry for chaos

  • itching to chase after storms

  • and run headlong into the fire.

  • to watch society break down,

  • and find out what’s truly important

  • and watch everything else fall away.

  • The apocalypse is one of the oldest fantasies we have,

  • but it’s not about skipping to the end of the story.

  • it's a longing for revelation,

  • a revealing of what we already know,

  • but cannot see:

  • that none of this is guaranteed.

  • and there’s no such thing asordinary life.”

  • that our civilization is just an agreement

  • that could be revoked at any time.

  • and beneath our rules and quarrels

  • were stuck together on a wide open planet,

  • where anything can happen

  • leaving us no choice but to survive,

  • to build a shelter,

  • and find each other in the storm.

  • that even just getting through the day

  • should feel like the miracle it is,

  • a cascading series of accidents

  • that just happened to fall your way.

  • But soon the storm will pass,

  • and the world will go on spinning,

  • and well pick up our lives just where we left them,

  • no more urgently than before.

  • After all,

  • it’s just life.

  • It’s not the end of the world.

For a million years,
