YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN PISSED OFF OR COMPLETELY SUBLIME
Have you ever thought about what it means to be alive.. Does it mean to wake up evey day just to do the things you are supposed to do. Is it as long as you have a heart beat and some brain activity, does this mean you are alive? Sometimes I can't help but think about why I'm here and what I'm actually supposed to do. Maybe just be happy..well if I was just to be happy then I wouldnt do anything I dont like doing, like waking up at 7 in the morning. I wouldnt do any work at all. "work consists of what one has to do, and play consists of what one doesnt have to do" - Mark Twain. The perfect senerio is like the movie Office Space. To just be happy..in total relaxation, with no cares in the world. Do what you want, when you want it... I would love to do this, but for some reason I know I wouldnt be happy. I feel the need to do everything I can..try to stand up for the injustices, make a difference, improve myself, make others happy even if I have to work harder. I dont know what being alive really means. Its just something you feel inside you. Its when something happens and you look back on it with a smile or maybe with tears. Its doing something you know is bigger than you can handel, but still trying. Its your favorite shoes or hat. Its the midnight snack, or walk, or skate. Its the smell before a storm, and the wind that makes you shiver. The bright sun when you walk outside after being in for too long, and the streching of your legs and the cracking of your back. Its giving the last french fry to someone you love, or someone you dont love. The automatic lazer toilets and sinks. Its dirt and the shower water that chages temperatures. Drinking your favorite drink, or that anticipation before actually drinking it. Sneezing and Hicupps. Your favorite song or movie. Its the lint in your belly button or in between your toes. your favorite stuffed animail or blanket. black and white TV. blinking light. The walk and dont walk symbol. Pointing out shapes in the clouds. Flying kites. Watching little kids, watching people. Its everything that happens makes us alive, its just if you see it or not. even thouhg its rough at times, you wouldnt feel so good when your at the beach if your life wasnt hard. Every thing you do in life is connected in one way or another by a small choice you made in the past. If you look back and think about doing one little thing different then you would cange everything about who you are today, and change the people and lives around you. Now imagine your life without a leg because you didn't stop and pick up that nickel before you crossed the street thus being hit by a speeding car. Its the moments like this that help us realize every second counts, and everything we do has some meaning and some way of altering our future. Now, im not saying to stop and contemplate every decision that comes your way, dont try to see into the future just do what you feel inside to be right. This is the only way to live without regretting or anger, because you dont want to be blaming the world or other people for your problems, and always be pissed off at everyone. Just know that if something bad or good happens you are the ultimate decider of what is to come. That is the only way to live. Dont eat animals..its bad karma, plus...well thats a whole differnent story.
