Found inside a fire-proof safe somewhere in the Capital Wasteland by one Lone Wanderer.

Maybe its the liquor talking or maybe, as I face the end of the world Ive finally become a thinking man, but I'm feeling compelled to write down my last few thoughts for no particular reason. Its not as if anyone's gonna read this [censored], but hey not like I've got anything better to do. After Jenny left with my last dollar, the car, and my pride and joy Jack not much else mattered and that's when this drinking habit of mine got really bad. Although it ain't all bad least I'm not being forced into one of those vaults. I swear Vault-Tec is a bunch crooks and creeps, I wouldn’t trust a single product they make, and most certainly would not trust them to protect me from a nuclear holocaust. So Ill just sit right here and watch the bombs fall.

Now I know I should be feeling scared or desperate or maybe even crazy like so many of the people out there, but I’m simply in awe. Of awe of humanity as a whole, how everything we’ve created in our few thousand years of recorded existence can go up in flames in less than a day. In one day we will see everything we once thought important destroyed and turn to dust. In one day the whole of us will become equal again, money, status, race, religion, none of it will matter, these things created by humanity to ease our few years on this earth will become irrelevant as the world returns to a time before humanity.

Some people are seeking solace in the fact that they will go to their almighty reward after their eventual demise, but isn’t religion a man-made device? Something created during our time here in an effort to explain why we’re on this earth, created to quench the human need to make sense of it all. What makes humanity so special above our ability to reason and to think? I think we’re just at the end of our time nothing more, nothing less. All those pressing issues in our lives seem like petty squabbles now on the big picture of it all.

We were all just animals looking for a way to make our trip through life just a little bit more pleasant. I see all these people trying to make sense of it but I’m not looking for very many answers, just one, What was the point of it all? The point of the wars, the point of our existence, the reasoning behind some of the more horrific times in human history, why did we have social classes, why was one man above another? None of it makes sense to me, most people are saying that the end of the world, that this Apocalypse, doesn’t make any sense, but to me it’s the only thing that truly does.

Rough copy, written in only a few minutes, didn’t have time to include the homey dialect throughout will add if I have time.

:clap: Well done, this is probably what I'd be like in the end, writing something like that for the sake of it. This is well written but... May I change it a little in this post?

If you just spaced it out like that I think that'd be great and easier to read. Although it's completely up to you. :shrug:

Great little piece and I hope to see you perhaps write another note by another person or continue with this one perhaps? As again, it's up to you; great piece and I won't even critique it because it's so interesting to read.

Edit1: Got rid of a big bunch of text.

Wow, youve got me beaming thank-you for the positive reinforcement, the reason for the spacing is partially due to a copy and paste mistake when i brought it over from word.
Many of these are thoughts ive had when i cant sleep at night, i will continue to write thanks to your comment.

Naww, but don't continue to write because of my comment; continue to write because it means something. When you write a story your essentially putting a bit of yourself into it; be who you want to be so to speak.

Well done and I look forward to reading more of your stuff.

This is good man! I like these types of stories, can't find anything wrong with it so all I can ask is that you take your time and enjoy yourself .

This is excellent work. It really made me think about the future of humanity and what we could possibly be heading towards. It is extremely well thought out and I look forward to seeing more of your work

Thanks everyone i think this might be my favorite thing ive ever written it puts all these thoughts ive had about an apocalypse into one story therefore this piece means a lot to me, i was in the process of two letters at the same time so im posting the other one its similar but i think its still from a different enough angle, im getting depressed thinking these deep thoughts about the end of the world so i might start up on a more "fun" style fan fic to see if i can pull that off.

One fan fiction topic at a time please.
