I have had yet another epiphany. This time at 4 in the morning and I was so certain I was going to forget it but I repeated it to myself every chance I got so ya... YAY! So here it is...
I have come to the conclusion that the result of all the violence in the world and the hatred and the wars is because our brains have not yet evolved enough to be able to comprehend and assess the complexity of emotions that we as humans have. Because seriously, the capacity to be so evil is not natural. It�s something we have created out of pure human emotion and it comes back and bites us in the ass every time. Not necessarily your own, but somebody�s ass is getting bitten. I mean like, war has existed since the beginning of man kind and look at us now, there�s still war but not as often. Our brains have evolved, but we still have a lot of evolving to do. And I think we�re nearly there. Look at the war that�s going on right now and the amount of people against it, especially in America. Most of them believe negotiation would work better. True, but not with a couple of morons like Bush and Sadam.

I have come to realize the importance of love in our lives. It�s one of the only real emotions that we are still capable of feeling. Our world has become to desensitized. We no longer feel the same empathy for others as we once did. We�re too self centered and unfortunately capitalism has contributed to that. I mean, look at how many supporters we have for this war. I don�t think the majority of them realize how many lives are going to be endangered. Not only Iraqi citizens, but the soldiers fighting. Of course the soldiers have been brainwashed to believe that what they�re doing is honorable. I�m sorry but there is nothing honorable about killing people for any reason. Maybe I�m just being blinded my optimism but I seriously do not believe that violence will solve anything. Obviously, because Sadam has used violence to control his own people and has exploited his power for the longest time and now it�s finally coming back to bite him in the ass. But by stooping down to his level, are we really any better than him?

The world is such a depressing place. It�s just full of corruption and phoniness. It is so appalling and mind boggling the stuff that goes on in this world. And I�m not talking about just like third world countries run by militaristic dictators. Instead of dictators, we�ve got corporations running our lives. We�re so materialistic and corrupt. Every where you go... we're trying to be sold something. Trying to make us believe that by simply buying this inaanimate object you'll be happier, and a better human being. But we�re too blind and/or ignorant to see. Capitalism sucks. Your place in this world is determined by how much money you can make. Who cares if can bring a little light to peoples lives with words or song or pictures. If you can�t rake in some cold hard cash, your worthless. This insanity touches everything in our lives, even the music industry. Which is so sad because music is supposed to be pure and totally non money driven. But these days, it all depends on what image you can sell, thus bringing in more money for all the fat greedy record executives. They don�t care if you�re selling your body and soul to everyone out there. It�s all about the bloody money. It�s so sad, that these little pieces of PAPER run our lives. Honest to God... PAPER!
Another thing that makes me mad is when people take all this shit so seriously that they let it effect them personally. So much that they become so depressed and suicidal and like slashing their arms and legs. Some how, making it in their messed up little minds, that it will solve something. I have no respect for people like this. You�re just letting the world and its insanity get to you. Maybe not in the desired way, but in the end they�re winning. Just.... it�s too late to change the world. It�s self destructive behavior that�s gonna come back and bite us in the ass pretty soon. And I myself have accepted this, so if you can�t change everybody else�s world, change your own. Accept that the world is a screwed up place beyond repair and just live your life to its fullest and just BE HAPPY!
Hey there...
continue... yes...
