Ibizan Transcendentalism I

First, why Ibiza? Because it's an island filled with posh society. In effect, it's Poly. Oh, it's also home to some house music, which I enjoy.

Point A. Point B. Our existence is very much dependent on connecting those points throughout various dimensions. In other words, ambition. We need ambition to live. Depression, and eventually suicide, is a result of either a perceived or real absence of one of those two points. For some, losing hope (the perception of an infinite gap between A and B) is justification for suicide. For others, a depressing "mid-life crisis" can be brought about by a lack of distance between the two or having only one point. Let me bring this to my first contention:

Humans can never be satisfied in life.

It is the gap that keeps us alive at all. Yin and yang. The opposite, or the absence of one, must be present to allow the existence of the other. Should humans manage to cover every square centimeter of this planet, they should look to the skies in order to avoid stagnation of ambition, which is the real extinction. The desire to do something is the first step to doing it.
