I mean, the very thought of a world totally unfiltered through human perception--or well, any kind of perception, really--is kind of impossible to think about. Even if there is a god--which I'm not too sure of, either--they would still possess the ability to perceive and think and thus never truly be free of subjective thought.
And the world keeps surprising me with secret truths that I previously thought to be vile, vile lies. And I'm not sure how to approach these startlingly-revealed truths, but I do think that the universe exists, that it lives and breathes on its own despite our inability to imagine it so.
For instance: angels? Totally real, but like, I spent the last year and a half thinking they weren't. Mountains? I also thought that those were lies and conspiracies, but it turns out they might actually be a thing.
Weird.
But perfection is not a thing that exists outside of us like these are.
the fuck am I doing
