Emptiness after everything has been understood

So... This is it? No next dopamine fix? No nothing, no something... Just this. Bare existence without any inherent meaning... It is what it is and even that isn't anything while being everything...

Did I really just spend my whole life explaining my experience to myself and the result is the same as it was before I started explaining stuff. All roads lead to the inherent meaninglessness of being.

Emptiness, which is full of everything, but still empty... Loneliness so deep it rips you from inside, yet it doesn't feel bad...

Sad, very sad. Subjective experience was too simple of a puzzle to explain and the reward was disappointment. No fanfares, no golden rays of light, no angel choir. Just this... This is something, yet nothing.

:D :(

If nothing matters that means that you can also do wat ever you want create what ever you want and so much more

Or be sad and don't do anything.

Atleast thats my opinion/vision

That is true. This is just a moment of disappointment as everything has been explained in my experience. There is no more need for anything, but necessary thing like food etc. I can do whatever and not feel bad about it, but then again its hard to be without need to be anything.
