As a solipsist - I am aware that no one else exists apart from me.
The world around me is relative only to me - and only exists according to me
and I designed my life and my existence in order to temporarily forget the
sadness of being alone.
You would think - given the opportunity to design and create my own life and
my own existence - I would create a world where I was loved and popular -
and where I loved many - and where maybe I was some kind of star or hero.
I used to do this at first.
But the devastation when finding out that people I had loved were not real -
and the let down that all circumstances were only invented and I was no star
or hero.
As time passed I learnt to invent worlds where I loved and liked people less
and less. This way the sadness of finding out that I had only invented them
and that they were not real was less. I began to invent worlds where I
suffered. Trying to make the sadness better that no world really existed -
in the hope of almost being pleased that no world really existed.

I think I like solipsism, then, if that is what it is.
I learned a long time ago that each person creates his own universe.
In a way, each soul is the only soul that exists.
That is what we all mean when we refer to the cosmic all encompassing
I Am. There can only be one of those, you know.

You would not like solipsism.
The devastation of the loneliness is terrible. Initially I searched
everywhere - did anything to find someone - anyone else that exists. Big
bangs you name it.
The fact...

I am getting better at this - I have done very well this time.
I will be VERY glad there is no such person as God!
And humans are so atrocious - it is a relief that they do not really exist
and that I may terminate them.
This is far better than the devastation and tears when I first invented
humans and loved them and how many tears I cried to find myself alone and
that none of them really existed.
And even invented a God! And I am SO SO glad he does not exist!

You may create a soul, but a soul cannot cease to be.
Could you imagine not existing?
Neither can we.

Each night when you sleep - during the times you do not dream you basically
do not exist. None existence is like this but it is for ever.
Humans do not have souls or anything like this - if I decide to terminate
you - then you have no choice.

Of course, the perception of sadness of being alone is also of your
making.

All images you mention are also based on illusions.
