When the Big Picture Isn’t Enough

Most of the people in this world are worker bees. We are born into a lifetime of labour. It’s scary, sad but true.
I don’t know if this wave of realization blindsides you on an unsuspecting workday. This is not a pleasant feeling I tell you.

And even if you are the queen bee, I am telling you, life’s not any sweeter even though you feed on royal jelly. You are doomed also to a lifetime of labour. What about the lazy drones, who exist for the purpose of sperm donation? They die upon mating.

And that pretty much sums it all up. The big picture? It ain’t pretty. Not for the insects and definitely not for us, the Homo sapiens.

Oh wait a minute. You work hard so you won't be in the unenviable situation of having to choose 2nd best as described in the post below.

I don't think it's very depressing. It's as clear as day, actually.

You're free to slack out, max out, or have fun and pass out like one of those bees. And hopefully it lasts for you.
