The Importance of Illusions

Being a mime gives me an identity and answers questions about my existence. I become one small, individuated, significant part of some sort of continuum of the cultural ideal of a mime. All these ways that we immerse ourselves in culture and create systems of meaning are all just illusions,. human constructions by people afraid of their own insignificance and impermanence. And so what naturally goes along with that is that nothing will ever feel meaningful to me. It is effectively impossible for me to ever be a happy person.
