Are You Chasing Success?

What if it’s just the punchline?

What if we spend lifetimes chasing the punchline — success, status, love, enlightenment, whatever the flavor of the moment — only to realize the whole setup was rigged for a laugh track?

The job, the title, the guru, the perfect morning routine — it’s all just cosplay for meaning.

Somewhere behind the veil, life’s grinning:

“I gave you a beautiful planet, breath, taste, wonder, courage… and you chose spreadsheets, followers, and likes?”

But what if, once you get the joke, you stop being the punchline?

You start creating what matters to you — coloring outside the lines of conformity.

Because you already have everything you need.

So what’s your next line? Deadpan? Satire? Something absurdly beautiful?
