It couldn't believe in money and
governments and religions and all these kinds of things it makes perfect sense that yeah there's really foundational stories where you are accepting and that's what's brought us here today that's what keeps me from running out on the street without my clothes on or doing other illicit activities is i'm held in place by a set of stories um that i've accepted and they are stacked one upon the other to make me believe that everything i'm seeing and accepting is valid but you know i guess the question becomes am i okay with this reality
