Escape My Perspective?

Okay cool so Sunday the 22nd of June 2025 and here's the question that I'm posing to myself as well as well as anybody listening really and truthfully am I trying to escape the matrix or am I just trying to escape my perspective? The reason why I say this is because I

was listening to a podcast yesterday and for a brief moment somebody was talking about kind of like you know happiness perceived happiness. Some of the people that we look at

that seem to have it all, they have everything that they could ever ask for. They've gone through all the rites of passages, whether culturally, religiously, socially, whatever it is that we deem as a way of going forward, you know, getting the best job, getting the best vehicle,

best house, best partner, having it all, absolutely all and more, right? You know, and yet we find out like, you know, if we kind of do a little bit of digging, or if we kind of like ask a couple of questions, we may find out that they are amongst one of the most unhappiest people or one of the most unfulfilled or unsatisfied people in the whole universe, for goodness sakes. And, you know, the question is, is like, you know, the question I'm asking myself and I'm pondering over myself is like, am I trying to escape the matrix

or am I just trying to escape my perspective? Because I've had days where I've literally done nothing music-wise at all. And yet I will kind of like see something as little as somebody liking one of my posts, somebody who's been supporting

and has been through their own way liking my post, all they do is just like my post. And yet it just fills me with such kind of like great joy and happiness, like I'm really happy, kind of like the similar type of happiness that I would get from maybe like receiving an award,

maybe like a Grammy to a certain extent. And I'm wondering whether moments like these, whether it's really about escaping the matrix as much as it is about escaping the perspective. Because really and truthfully, from the perspective that I was kind of like in

at the time when I received that notification, I was very much in an abundant state of mind. Like, I was pretty much grateful for anything and everything. And I was very grateful for the fact that this person had liked my post.

And I was grateful for the fact that to a certain extent I have evolved and I have kind of like put in myself, you know, I've adapted and I kind of like, you know, built, you know, a network. And, you know, there of like engaging with my content. There is something there. And so that's the question. Am I escaping the matrix or am I really just trying to escape my own perspective?
