Faster and faster until it started to hurt until I thought I couldnt take it any more, then it stopped. And there was the answer. THE ANSWER. It was so plain and simple, too plain and simple you would never get it. It made the whole human race seem worthless. I tried to comunicate this to my friend urgently but I had no control over my mouth, just this mumbling came out - I couldnt speak. Panic. I've just unraveled THE point to the whole meaning of life and I cant comunicate it to anyone. Now my mind is going crazy again, cant get my breath, hearts going like mad.
Huh? is that me I see lying on the floor? why am I lying on the floor? Hang on, why can I SEE me lying on the floor?
FUCK! .........
(It goes on but I will stop here)
well, what was the answer? I cant remember. I know its just a few simple words, like only 4 words.
Belive it or not.....

You were on acid, anything and everything would have seemed like the biggest revelation ever.
The truth is that life has no meaning, other than perhaps that of perpetuating your genes. Life is a frail concept, by the way. Are we really life? We are biological machines, nothing more. Beyond that, the universe will eventually collapse and rebirth, and since nothing will survive it or affect the next universe in any way (other than mass), nothing really matters in the end.
