meditation end game

This may not sound like an endorsement of meditation, but it seems like a long path splattered with brief highs and soul tearing lows until the victim falls, quite by accident, onto a box with the answers they seek, and the box is empty.

And the emptiness gives answers to life's great questions like "what should we do?" with "it doesn't matter, and you don't get to choose, and there isn't really a 'you' so much as you think there is."

..what a relief.
