Jesus

Jesus, a man today is his birthday, he is one of the most famous men to truly live on this earth and now is followed by millions all over the world.

"Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the Child of a peasant woman. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty, and then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never owned a home. He never had a family. He never went to college. He never put His foot inside a big city. He never traveled two hundred miles from the place where He was born. He never did one of the things that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but Himself. He had nothing to do with this world except the naked power of His Divine manhood. While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against Him. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a Cross between two thieves. His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had on earth while He was dying—and that was His coat. When He was dead He was taken down and laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend. Such was His human life—He rises from the dead. Nineteen wide centuries have come and gone and today He is the Centerpiece of the human race and the Leader of the column of progress. I am within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, and all the navies that ever were built, and all the parliaments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as has that One Solitary Life." --James C. Hefley

Alright so first off I had a poll and people voted on if they thought Jesus Christ was real or not. Now even though only 11 people voted I still consider that to be a lot. And they said that yes Jesus was real. Which I can safely say

Yes

He was real, indefinitely a real man! There is certainly a lot of books and stories about him. He seems real enough. Every Sunday people go to church to worship him. And they pray to him and talk about him. They eat to him and honor his birth and death.

Sounds like a real fascinating man eh?

I sure as hell think so.

Look! if we are still talking about him today than he must have done something right, am I right? he made miracles which cured and saved so many people! He died one of the most horrible death's imaginable and then came back to life! 0_o Not even Buddha or Moses or Muhammad could do THAT. There can only be one explanation, Jesus went to Hogwarts. Lol just kidding. But in all seriousness perhaps he was using the power of God or a higher being.

That's what a lot believe in. And there is nothing wrong with that! In fact I applaud it, it is very rare to find a true christian these days. H.G Wells said "I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history."
Agreed but not in a negative term. I wasn't sure what he meant by dominant, it could be taken into positive and negative terms. I'm assuming it's positive.

And now for my theory

Jesus was human, but he had such an understanding of his surroundings at such an early age he had the power to harness all life (the force), and use his power to create everything good. He took what he was raised from and made it grow in the hearts of hundreds, then thousands, then hundreds of thousands. Until he got too powerful and then was forced to succumb to the true evil and pathetic forces of human nature, greed. Judas, the Jews, Pontius Pilate, there is no one specific person to blame. Jesus had ultimate knowledge and knew what was going to happen to him. He died and then rose again. We cannot call that a man, he was an enlightened being, or an angel, or a prophet of divine wisdom, or a sage, or a super genius, even a Buddha! It doesn't matter if we call him lord our saviour or some guy, his message of peace and prosperity is the most important thing of all. And through this world of hate and violence, his word is one of the only words I can trust. Thank you Jesus for helping me and millions like me see a pure path and pure way through life. There are many people who believe in him who take everything so literally and there are people who think the whole thing is a crock, so what? don't assure yourself with them. They can do what they want. If YOU think they are wrong, so be it. Don't try and tell them what to believe.

But now, we look on to this great man's birthday his coming onto this earth and see, what?

Gifts,
Toys,
All sorts of joy out of material goods.
trees,
lights,

the list goes on

A warped view on something that isn't what it seems

but all I can say is thank you

Thank you for reading this

Thank you for taking the time to see my point of view

Thank you for understanding

Thank you for caring

Thank you for being my friend

and most of all,
Thank you for being in my life

Merry Christmas

Happy Holidays

Primordial Sin

Alright so here I am about to discuss to you how people are sheep and followers of the primordial sin, primordial means: existing first: existing at the beginning of time or of the development of something. Ever since the beginning of time we have urged ourselves to take on motions of power & greed. It has been brought before me that every man and woman that walks on this earth is either a controller or a follower. People who are born into royal, rich, strong, important and respected families become successful. People who aren't are more likely to become laymen. It's seems quite unfortunate that we have class systems and are then sent to war and die for a country that may hate them.

Perhaps I this may not be a valid point but I say bluntly that we as people are generally bad. Without proper judgement we act as barbaric animals. Perhaps we do actually need a controller & leader to guide us because they might just be the only ones to whip us into line.

With a right winged point of view on general leadership, it seems like a great thing to have! But certain actions are to be needed in order to maintain such a strong hearted leadership.

First off, great leaders have to put away all personal matters and work for their people and their people only

Secondly, No one can be perfect. Everyone will have their own bias and their own opinion on everything.

Thirdly Everyone complains about everything and nobody is truly happy and no matter what you do someone will get pissed off.

The only thing that matters as a leader will be your actions John Quincy Adams the sixth president of the United States once said "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader." I think it speaks for itself.

Next lets look at the Leftist side

With left wingers you have leadership as some king of popularity thing. Leftists always want whats best for the world yet are totally oblivious with everything going on.

The good thing is that Leftists are charismatic. They aren't stupid and don't take things literally all the time.

Leftism is usually for the young and strong headed. Leaders in liberal ways have a whole lot of potential they usually just come in at a time people don't like them.

Winston Churchill once said If you're not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you're not a conservative at forty you have no brain. Which is exactly 100% true.

In the above picture one hand is playing a piano and the other is controlling chess pieces with strings. This is an artists conception of Shakespeare's famous quote - "All the world's a stage,And all the men and women merely players;They have their exits and their entrances,And one man in his time plays many parts,His acts being seven ages." It is true one man in his time can play many parts, but to be that my friends. You would have to be born into the ranks of privilege and honor.

I'm not saying there cannot be rags to riches. I'm saying people who have more opportunities in life often grasp them and never let go. Those who can't enjoy your strings. For this the earliest sin, our acceptance into what we now live in. A world of freedom & utmost obedience.

Supression, Obsession & Intervention

Alright, it is time to break open the philosophy tombs again and talk about the obvious plague that is haunting our society. No I'm not talking about Right Winged nut jobs, (only kidding) I'm talking about technology. Yes as you can tell things like video games, television & computers have taken over millions of lives and sucked the life right out of every weak minded person that has succumbed to this poison.

Now I've been around the block quite a few times and I've noticed signs of addiction when people play games like World of Warcraft, Call of Duty 4, Age of Conan, Everquest, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Halo 3, Gears of War 2 and many many others. They are designed for the player to accomplish tasks in a certain amount of time. They are also designed to never give a dull moment. Also when your finished that menial task, you get a tiny sense of satisfaction or a reward and then go on playing knowing, that you are better than other people currently playing this game. And then the weak minded are sent into this world and play for hours and hours to get menial tasks done. I remember playing World of Warcraft and it was shocking. My face, glued to the screen. You couldn't get anything done in an hour it had to be two or three or four. In a vicious cycle. People claim that they can quit at any time but it draws them back in. Their "friends" need their help. And the designers show no mercy either. They keep updating the game to make it more challenges and gamers feel compelled to beat them. The definition of Obsession is an "idea or feeling that completely occupies the mind." Or preoccupation. Again mentioning in one of my previous articles. Escape from reality. Perhaps the mind needs these things just to get away. But the addicted gamers would have an excuse. "Well at least I'm not on drugs" or "I can quit at any time" but really, could stuff like this be compared to a drug?

I sure as hell think so. Why wouldn't it? Drugs are used to give happiness and take away pain and perception. To escape and forget all worries. Well wouldn't that be the same with video games? Considering the problems the world is having with these games. I think that proper precautions should be made with the parents before buying games like these. Perhaps, that might seem a bit drastic but look! People like you and me are committing suicide, running away, developing social issues & isolating themselves from their friends and family. It sounds like one hell of a drug doesn't it? The picture above shows a frail kid, curled up in the corner of a wrecked "junkie" house & with virtual reality goggles plugged into an outlet. This is basically stating that In the not so distant future. Kids addiction can be and are the same thing as a drug addiction. The picture shows it damages you physically & mentally.

Carl Gustav Jung a modern era influential thinker and good friend of Sigmund Freud, once said "Every form of addiction is bad, no matter whether the narcotic be alcohol or morphine or idealism." This means that basically no matter what kind of addiction it is, it is all bad. Which is totally true! People take these habits in and suppress themselves from the world. Suppression means in psychological terms "avoidance of thoughts and feelings: conscious avoidance or inhibition of memories, desires, or thoughts." Going further into the psychological matter. Everyone can succumb to addiction, not just the weak minded.

I would also like to state that Intervention plays a major if not the most important part of all with addicting situations. Intervention means: "action affecting another's affairs: the act of intervening, especially a deliberate entry into a situation or dispute in order to influence events or prevent undesirable consequences" Once you interfere with something as fragile as someones escapism problem. They could lash out on you or try and further suppress their feelings & become more isolated.

The world is large, 6 billion + people inhabit it and we all have our own individuality. We have our strengths and weaknesses some are stronger, smarter, faster and more physically appealing than others. It doesn't make you a better person. Insecurity is a large factor and when an escapism world where you have the chance to be better at someone else, the strongest, the fastest, & even the richest for only 15$ a month, who wouldn't take that offer?

Everyone wants a piece

The equal share. Everyone demands equal rights in everything, total selfishness and utter disgust if you ask me. People see what others have and automatically they want it. They say, it brings them happiness. Oh I'm not talking about possessions, do you really think I would waste my time on such filth? If you know me, you will know that I stray far from the obvious as possible. I'm talking about physical attraction towards the opposite sex. And, rights and all that jazz.

First off, relationships and love and all that stuff, it's blown way out of proportion. People see something, and they want it. They don't care how they get it or who they take it from. People see couples walking around and such and wonder, not say, but just wonder hmmm I would like to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Just giving in to sensual desire. I know that there is nothing wrong with that, but when everyone does it? It's like moving as some clockwork machine! Like in the above picture, people pushing/carrying massive blocks to climb up a mountain, which in my honest opinion, shows that, people expect way to much out of life and all try to get somewhere trying to "make the best" and "when one door closes another one opens" type attitude. Like seriously, lets be real for a second and think. On top of the crumbled economy and poor leadership we have, horrid education systems, pathetic taxing, and mother earth has been dead since the industrial revolution. Then you have the every day Joe blow stuff. Working perhaps some, go to work knowing that they might get fired. Could you even Imagine that? My own father, almost a sole provider for my family has to worry about that EVERY DAY. Forgive my language, but that seems pretty shitty. Lets face it, life can grab you by the throat and suck all the joy out of you.

But lets look at the joy's in life...

Christmas! - Christmas is coming...Yeah right, I bet the word Jesus doesn't even apply to anyone anymore. It's so sad to see children screaming for the latest toy, oh well, that's capitalism for you! Equal representation for all right?

What about,

Family! - Ok now, family is good, pretty good but not everybody gets along, and I know almost all of you have relatives that you don't so much enjoy the company of.

please forgive me for picking apart the joy in life but you can just stop reading anytime you choose.

Love! - Please, Teenagers have the itty bittiest understanding of Love, (I'm not knocking knowledge) couples in high school isn't love so much as just a very very strong relationship. Love has been characterized in so many ways by so many people. I just say It's really really strong and beautiful! But It can cut you up like soft bread.

Going back to the relationship thing, I say, go ahead, if it makes you happy! "They do not love that do not show their love. The course of true love never did run smooth. Love is a familiar. Love is a devil. There is no evil angel but Love." - William Shakespeare

Go ahead, carry your block, try and make it up that mountain. It can be done, things like stress, anger, sorrow, grudges and yes even love will just make it harder to carry, but hey what ever gets you through the day, right?

Animals

I just have to say, Animals are awesome. Who doesn't like them? They are great companions, they are mysterious, empowering and epic things.

I seriously don't know why we don't pay more attention to them. Lets go with dogs or cats for example. They always love you if you feed & take care of them. If you look into the eyes of a dog or a cat you can see everything about them, Its fantastic. They are truly a great thing that we must respect.

If you have a cat or a dog or a fish or a bird or anything you will know exactly what I'm talking about! You love them and understand that they have souls its lovely is it not? The best moments are playing with your pets. You feel like a kid. And it feels so wonderful.

For the other non-domesticated animals...They cannot help what they were born in! The horrific world that we have placed around them! They are just doing what they can to survive and we have no right to interfere with that. I believe in re-incarnation or rebirth and animals have such unique lives. Exploring new things, no stress no alarms no 9 to 5. It would be epic. Another thing.

Zoo's

Are

Bad!

They are really bad for animals, I understand that some animals were born in captivity, but ACTUALLY GIVE THEM A SURROUNDING! not some god dam two bit cage where every god dam redneck can stop and gawk at them! It's not natural! How would you like it if that happened to you? I'm sure that you would hate it a lot.

For Christ sakes put them in a respected wildlife reserve. Or, a larger cage without public display? It wouldn't be that hard. If I was in charge I would ban all Zoo's. It's called the Internet people again I'm mentioning your using it right now, you want to see a tiger, go to YouTube, go watch the discovery channel or go to Africa. Animals should have rights, they can't help if they are born in captivity.

Abraham Lincoln once said "care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it." I think that animals shouldn't be kept in cages, barbarically slaughtered, chemically bred, given growth hormones or even talked down too. They have feelings too and even if they cannot cry they still feel pain.

Even in the Bible it says "But he who kills an ox is like one who slays a man; He who sacrifices a lamb is like the one who breaks a dog's neck; He who offers a grain offering is like one who offers swine's blood; He who burns incense is like the one who blesses an idol. As they have chosen their own ways, And their soul delights in their abominations," - Isaiah 66:3

I encourage you all to respect, and not kill animals, not even insects! I don't kill animals and I try not to eat meat as often as I was. I'm not begging you to become vegetarians or vegans. But please, have more respect! For something that struggles to survive due to our reckless and unthoughtful behaviour.

The One, and only Light at the end

Escapism is something such as fantasy or entertainment that makes it possible to forget about the ordinary or unpleasant realities of life for a while. The thing is that we always feel down sometimes. And some every one of us have certain things that we can turn to. Even praying to God is escapism. Because not everybody has those beliefs and there is nothing wrong with praying. But I think its more of a psychological escapist placebo. (perhaps that is being a little to harsh) but honestly it is, it really really is. We look to God for guidance and wisdom. And base his reactions and ultimate generosity on a book written over 1000 years ago. How can we be so sure that he is still the same? Look at all the horrible things that went wrong in the past century or even in this century that is only still 8 years old? If there was a God. Perhaps now he is ashamed of what he has created. (again, maybe I'm being a little to harsh, but somebody has to speak up) Other forms of Escapism include, Drugs, I'll openly admit (natural) drugs are NOT the worst thing in the world. Those things have been around for thousands of years and it wasn't until trading companies and corporations and governments managed to get a strong enough grip onto society so they can fluctuate the goods and products currently being sold in bought in the business world. Plus, it was for their own good, who would want to run a factory, where all your workers take the money you give them, and blow it all away at the nearest opium den or cannabis bar? For those reasons I say, yes drugs are bad. But the needs of the many do outweigh the needs of the few, so its a vicious cycle. A very very vicious cycle.

So we ask ourselves, how do we actually cheer ourselves up without damaging our minds or fooling our subconscious thoughts? The answer is, we cannot. It is almost impossible to forever eliminate the feelings of sorrow & shame. As bad as those feelings are, they show you your true emotions. Mark Twain once said "any emotion if sincere is involuntary" This means, that you can't help it! So why fret or cry or bicker over how things are bad. You can't help it.

The One, and only Light at the end, itself is something I made up that makes perfect sense. People take in only one perspective and don't look at the horizon in all directions. In the picture above, it shows a tiny ship with a few sailors caught in a storm pointing towards a candle on the rocks being sheltered by hands, supposedly those of God. Yes it is a good picture I may add but look at it in this perspective. Perhaps, that there are other directions? Perhaps there is another way? Perhaps that rock is just a rock and not actually an Island at all. This is how I look at things on life and strongly suggest you do so as well. If I were to discuss this topic to some people they would automatically have judgements on me and probably not speak to me. Unfortunately they have been "conditioned" to accept only one path at the end. Fortunately there is a way out. How? Well that, you will have to figure out on your own my friends.

Industry, Economy, and Corporation. Our coffins & pathway to poverty

Now I know you may get this a lot, "consider yourself lucky you live in a country with a lot of rights and freedoms." or "I bet a poor family would be glad to receive something like that" The truth is, yes we are lucky. But the world does not work in a way where we can share with everyone else. It's just not possible, Jesus himself said "You lack one thing; go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." Mark 10:21, (now I know I'm not Christian but it is, from the Bible) Well, I do not want to contradict Jesus, but does it not seem that perhaps Jesus is telling us to sell our things and we will have treasure in heaven? Perhaps, but perhaps not. I don't think that giving money to somebody is actually solving the problem. Look at so many situations in the world where money is given to solve problems. It is given to 3rd world countries to try and help them. But really, the money is only given to a certain number of people. What about the others? They are left, left for nothing. It truly is unfortunate. But it happens, do we talk about it? Nope. Do we do anything about it? We sure do. We throw more money at it!

If you can understand my logic I'm trying to say that our leaders, our respected society members and rich upper class. Don't care about poverty at all. They care about publicity and "trying to do the right thing" it sounds like a load of bull to me. We work hard to stimulate the economy especially in these times of hardship. This blog isn't political but I'd like to stress the fact that NOT EVERY GOVERNMENT WORKS! Actually none of them work. A government that works has not been invented yet. It's sad isn't it? Not even democracy works. Democracy - the free and equal right of every person to participate in a system of government, often practiced by electing representatives of the people by the majority of the people. Sounds promising but actually consider the fact that with a minority government we cannot do anything! We waste away our months willingly working to stimulate the economy for ungrateful people who wont do anything and yet they expect us to. Give money for our house, our gas, our electricity, our water, our connection with the outside world! the Internet! Something you are using right now, and probably taking advantage of it. So its just a vicious cycle! You are born, you go to school from when your 4 to when your 24 sometimes longer. Then you get some job. Get married, have kids, retire, have grand kids, get pension from the oh so promising government and die. Perhaps, maybe just maybe I am overreacting, but I am not lying to you. Look at the picture. It will be your housing if you let this keep happening. Our population will explode and our economy will crash. Perhaps a war will break out and tragedy will strike us. "Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time" - Sir Winston Churchill. Can you not see that we are straying into a hell of poverty and deceit? Do not be blind sighted by those who say they can save you, do not be betrayed by the man you voted for in the "fair" election do not be cut down by the enemy as you were fooled into fighting for something you believe in. Listening and acting on everything you hear sounds stupid right? Well it is. Just because Someone says something and five million other people believe in it as well does not make it true. If they have guns or tanks or planes or ships or money it does not make it true. The only thing that should be true is what you believe is true. Religion, Politics, Sexuality, Philosophy, are all in your opinion and you are allowed to think whatever you want. Don't follow what you see directly ahead. Take the path less traveled.

Independence

Independence - freedom from dependence on or control by another person, organization, or state. When your alone, your entire mind changes and you are actually free to think on your own. Even if you are with somebody you fell obligated to make them feel welcome, happy, and relaxed. Even if your just having a simple conversation your mind frame changes your true independent personality to the partialness of the other person. It happens subconsciously, I know that it happens because I've seen people act totally different in front of people they like. I think that its pretty sad. You should evolve past that stage and be yourself 24/7.

When your alone, your thoughts roam free, you can think about anything or anyone you want in anyway. And nobody can criticize you or anything! Your thoughts are your own and nobody elses. It is where you get to unleash your true mainframe and accept your identity. It maybe a bit difficult to understand at first, but when your alone all by yourself and think or ponder or write or do whatever and be yourself. Without letting everything else in the world bombard you.

"The one who wanders independent in the world, free from opinions and viewpoints, does not grasp them and enter into disputations and arguments. As the lotus rises on its stalk unsoiled by the mud and the water, so the wise one speaks of peace and is unstained by the opinions of the world." - Buddhist saying This is why people who wander and are free of dependency are intelligent. Do you think Albert Einstein, or Gandhi, or Jesus or even Buddha depended on others? they certainly had followers and people they themselves admired but they did not depend on others! They all became famous after their passing! They had so much time to their thougths and made something of themselves, because intelligence isn't from lessons or books, it's what your own mind thinks of the world and what your conscience and opinions plan to do about it!

In conclusion I'd like to put this into more understandable terms. When your alone, your have the moment to yourself and you don't have to worry about anything other than yourself. Your thoughts are independent and they can lead you to anything and everything. This is most available when your at a peaceful place or in a peaceful state of mind, such as, lying in bed drifting off to sleep, walking alone, reading, or my favourite, having a shower. Your Independence is everything, I can't ask anything of anyone, just don't lose your individuality to anything or anyone.

Desire

Desire is to want something very strongly, in my beliefs Buddha taught the freedom from desire “What is evil? Killing is evil, lying is evil, slandering is evil, abuse is evil, gossip is evil: envy is evil, hatred is evil, to cling to false doctrine is evil; all these things are evil. And what is the root of evil? Desire is the root of evil, illusion is the root of evil.” - Buddha. And I am just finally figuring out exactly what that means.

Basically, the truth is, we all desire to be rich and famous. I know how phony that may seem but it is true. We desire the need to gain power and be respected. Nobody really wants to do anything but we feel obligated and are conditioned to become rich and famous so you can afford all these new things. I find it truly disturbing on how we have to be taught to desire these things. Some people take it upon themselves to vow to create things to advance humanity by creating cures and new inventions. But there are others, who do not share that same point of view. Many people take it in the wrong way and often revert to crime to attain this wonderful feeling of having money and power. And I know, it maybe harmless, if a criminal is smart enough to gain a large large profit and get away with it they are quite intelligent. And this kind of crime happens all the time there is nothing you can do to stop it. But where does it exactly end? When do we as a supposed "fully functioning" society say stop?

The picture above this article is showing the ruins of a city from a nuclear Holocaust. This, is what happens when man's desire reaches its full limits. One person's desire is harmless, but what about a group? or a town? or a city? or a country? How about a country that has already achieved power and they have somebody waltz in with impractical ideas? Let me tell you it has happened before, thankfully for not a long time, but things like this get worse and worse every day. Man has only been on this earth for a small fraction of time in the total existence of the universe. Succumbing to desire is something that isn't going to be pleasant, believe me. In my opinion I think freedom from desire is a great thing that should be embraced. We don't want to take the insanity to the epitome of hell. If only in little steps by just thinking for your own and not being concerned with every single problem in the world! Altruism counts as a desire too.

Things taken to the extreme always end up badly, desire is just one of the many poisons that cloud us every day. I'm not being too spiritual, I'm simply implying that we could end up destroying ourselves one day if we let carelessness and desire ruin the fabric of society.

Balance of the Universe, Circle of Life

Karma - in Hindu and Buddhist philosophy, the quality of somebody's current and future lives as determined by that person's behavior in this and in previous lives. Now in idealistic realism, karma is a major factor in determining the outcome of our spiritual path. Everything has a weakness and a strength. Perhaps this could be taken out of context but our world and everything we know and see is only one tiny tiny insignificant spec on the massive universe that is our dimension. We cannot control what happens naturally in our world, that is why we create stories or explain things by using the supernatural and mystic beings to find an answer. There is nothing wrong with that but we haven't even been on this earth for a mere 200 thousand years. That is only a fraction on how old the earth is. Perhaps there was a much greater civilization that discovered earth and was wiped out! We can and will find this information out, if it is real.

Realism is only what we call real it physically means a practical understanding and acceptance of the actual nature of the world, rather than an idealized or romantic view of it. What we discover is what is actually real. What we haven't discovered is a mystery and what we will never discover is something we don't know or will ever actually consider thinking about. Because the idea has never been brought up in the history of humanity. We are constantly being raised in sheltered environments for each generation. Look at life 100 years ago in 1908. Children didn't disobey their parents. People had respectable jobs. Governments weren't corrupt and everybody was grateful. Now we have the worst generation alive. Basically the opposite of what I just wrote down. It is due to our findings and discoveries we take advantage of these discoveries and manipulate them. That is why we have no respect and that is why we are living in such hard times. The balance of the universe is all messed up due to our greed and constant assumptions about "The Right and Perfect World"

Childhood is the most precious thing ever. It is before the poisons of society start damaging our true innocence. Look at the picture above. And something I noticed is that once adulthood is attained the man stops smiling. He has so much responsibilities and problems that he feels is his fault and his job to fix. And as you get older and your wisdom increases, you will find that something you once believed in or something you once found great had been horrible or corrupt all along. It is truly a disturbing find that we allow this to happen. Why should you have to feel guilty for something you have taken no part in? You shouldn't but you do because you are pressured to. My advice would be to not be concerned with the worlds problems as much and live your live constantly making the best of things.

Surrealism in our lives

Surreal is weirdly unfamiliar, distorted, or disturbing, like the experiences in a dream. As usually found as artistic and or brilliant ways to express one's creativity or view on this world. For this world is vast and magnificent and the intricate designs on many objects or persons for form one physical and celestial being. We can only see this though if we look into ourselves and find the importance and significance of this one particular object that will become another or a piece to something much greater or larger. Look at say for example a tree, some would say that the tree formed from a seed some few months ago, they would describe the species of the tree and say something interesting about its type. Others would look at the tree and claim it is a creation of God, and he made that tree grow from the seed, they would be marveled at the patterns on the leaves and the texture of the bark. A surrealist would look at the tree and explain that the tree is a complex form that has taken on this specific shape to define its natural ways. They would also comment on ways the tree would look in winter, or fall, or they would ask questions and ponder things like "Why is this tree here?" "Why do you think the branches on this particular tree face that way?" Surrealistic views take the simplest of things and move them on to the next level of philosophical thinking.

Sigmund Freud once said, "Dreams are often most profound when they seem the most crazy." when we have dreams they often are considered psychobabble, and people tend to ignore them. I am asking you, don't. Please, dreams are a precious thing and a dream is your mind explaining to you the true patterns of the world in mixed messages. A dream can be like an exact recording of your day but in a more eerie way. Because to be honest, eeriness is what defines the creativity in humans. We are generally afraid or creeped out by such nonsense that is why most people would stay away. But a daring, creative and surreal mind would go after your brains mixed messages and follow them into the abyss of supernatural and magical form. Surreality, is what defines the philosophical mind as unique from the normal mind. It can show you ways to observe and study things you never thought imaginable. Clear your mind, stare into surreality and accept it as your own.

Journey Through your Mind

Existentialism, a philosophical movement begun in the 19th century that denies that the universe has any intrinsic meaning or purpose.
It requires people to take responsibility for their own actions and shape their own destinies. One of many meaningful ways to express the full capacity yet simplicity of the human mind. None of us have fully grasped the fact that our minds are the most powerful tools out in existence. We have the power to do anything. And words are our weapons in which without words we cannot impact the earth in negative and positive way. Negativity and Positivity, two words defined by man as evil or good, right and wrong, yin and yang. We have many names for it. And we don't even realize how this mysticism was placed before us. Was it created by an all mighty being? Or did we just have it and not fully unlock it until now. Perhaps we still haven't unlocked the full intention of human innovation and intuition. We will never ever know. Knowing, the possession of knowledge. Little have it yet many claim to possess this wonderful and mysterious quality. Knowledge isn't how high your mark is in school. It's what you know about the world and more importantly, what should be done.

Our mind is like a cave. Sometimes you may discover things that are useful and valuable about yourself that you and other times, you will spend days searching and end up finding nothing new about yourself. Your inner self can be hard to acquire, you have to be diligent in many things and be incredibly patient. A phrase in Buddhism "Inquire within" or "Peace comes from within, do not seek it without" well without what? exactly, what? We don't know what because Knowledge isn't attained overnight, Without being opened minded you cannot seek knowledge, without seeking knowledge you cannot Inquire within, without inquiring within you cannot discover, without discovery we cannot solve anything! It's just that simple! Many philosophers have tried to find out how to find the right path, well there is only one right path and it is through your mind, you must journey through your mind to find out who you truly are and your true spirituality! Lao Tzu once said, "At the center of your being you have the answer; you know who you are and you know what you want." This basically means, you have to look deep inside that cave of yours to find your identity and self being. Some have taken drugs to realize this, some meditate to try to reach enlightenment, (such as myself) others have joined priest hood or have become monks, some go on vision quests there are many ways of finding yourself. Don't do what others tell you to do and don't become dependant on other people. Look and someday you will find the celestial powers of your Mind.

Teenage Popularity

High School is peculiar, now I'm not complaining, but the work is tedious, the pressure increases, and every decision you make will affect your live in one way or another. But high school isn't just an intense work camp. (although some beg to differ) It is a place where you can socialize and make a lot of friends. If you don't have any social skills you can't succeed in the future. And everybody has social skills and at least one person has somebody they can call a friend. But the sad thing is, everybody judges everybody else. And although people don't admit it, it still happens. People look at someone and see them, the way they dress and how they look and automatically ideas are formed into their heads about that person. They are labeled and placed in "cliques" such as Nerds, Freaks, Emos, Loners, Jocks and Gays.(just to name a few) even if you don't call that person that. Rumors and gossip are spread around and that person still has a label even if they don't know about it. Shouldn't we all be treated equal and ignore the way we dress or our religion, or the colour of our skin? Equality is difficult to attain but not impossible. You can do it, you can stop peer pressure and bullying. Try it, work together for an equal community and a better and easier tomorrow.
