preferences and the state of reality in tonight's microworld.

I don't like myself tonight. I didn't like myself today. Will I like myself tomorrow? The Magic 8-ball says so.

I don't believe in God. I don't believe in a god. I don't believe in fate. I don't believe in unknown forces. Magical forces, that is. There are unknown forces, but those are natural. The question here is "What can I rely on?"

What can I rely on? What basis is there for truth? What's right or wrong, if it's only a matter of a divine perception that may not exist? What's a preference if nothing really matters?

I don't like myself tonight, but I don't believe in God. What does that mean? How can I not like myself if there's no true basis for comparison, if I only compare myself with another illusory perception of myself made at another moment, one where I was just a little more naive, more inclined to trust this reality as being real?

Maybe I do like myself after all. Who needs god...
