My name, as I've said before, doesn't matter. My age doesn't really make much of a difference either. Genders are pretty much pointless. Who care about race, nationality, or sexuality. So if you want to know anything about me, you can either stalk me, wait and see if I ever reveal it, or just forget about it because its probably not going to make much of a difference in your life. I'm probably pretty easy to figure out, but I enjoy the feeling of anonymity.
I often find that songs can, by their beat, tone, sound, music, instruments, voice, and lyrics, define how I'm feeling and I'd have to say that right now I would pick Dare4distance by Never Shout Never.
R the zombie from Warm Bodies has more expressed more emotion and intellect than Kristen Stewart from Twilight.
What if several thousand years ago, the majority of humankind left the planet, whether it have been the rapture or by spaceship or whatever else you can imagine, leaving only a few to brave an apocalypse, restart the species, reinvent all technology, and throughout the years we forget about the rest of us, or never know at all.
The greatest controversy. The base of religions. The definitions of cultures. The questions of philosophers. The soul of existentialism. The root of law. The start of rebellions. The most controversial yet obviously assumed and unspoken rule. Good and bad, pure and evil, heaven and hell, right and wrong. How do we know this? How could we? Who are we to judge what someone's worth is. To condemn or praise their actions. No praise, no punishments, it just is. Who are we to say if an action is bad or good. By the person? By the intentions? By what religions or laws say? How do we know that gossiping, or stealing, or hurting, or killing is wrong. Because it hurts the feelings we choose to have, because it takes from what is rightfully mine, because it triggers nerves to say the body is being destroyed, because it causes us to die? What is death anyway? Isn't it just a state of being that we don't understand? How could we? What about our conscience? Maybe what we think is wrong and right is what our body believes and our mind tells us. Those who differ too much are called sociopaths, crazy, weird, perfectionists. It goes both ways. How do we know that saying words we think are nice is good, that being honest is good, that being faithful or caring or compassionate is a good thing. How do we know that God is good and Satan is bad. Its all perception, choice, and opinion.
Why has religion become so horrible? Why is it thought of as bad or corrupt. Why do some people who believe so strongly in science believe that religions are ridiculous or impossible. Why do some religious people believe that evolution is so ridiculous or impossible. Or the thought or no afterlife. How come science and religion come hand in hand. I think that that combination of intellect, wisdom, knowledge, faith, physics, rituals, math, God, evolution, gods, creation, Buddha, reason, spirit, facts, and magic all work together in wonderful mysticism. They're not so different, really.
What is prejudice? Prejudice is a preconceived idea of what people should be and people not meeting it. It could be that you think everyone should be a certain race. It could be that you think that certain races should be treated differently. It could be that you think everyone should live in their respective countries by their respective ethnicity. It could be that you think everyone should be apart of a certain religion (including atheism). It could be that you think girls should like boys and boys should like girls. It could be that you think certain age groups should think and act certain ways. It could be that you think that everyone should be like you. It could be that you think only humans deserve equal rights. It could be that you think you have to act a certain way, behave a certain way, love a certain way, sin a certain way, think a certain way. It could be that you think others should be good and kind or bad and evil. It could be that everyone else is better than you. Isn't the hate for the man who committed mass genocide the same hate the he held for a certain race. Why are we told to hate only certain people. Think of the very person that you hate the most. I can guarantee that if you were able to see what they saw, hear what they could hear, think what they think, understand what they understood, hate what they hate, love what they love, worry their worries, fear their fears, cry their cries. feel what they feel, their sadness, joy, pain, happiness, love, anger, fear, courage... I guarantee that you will love this person because you know them. I was read a book that told of a man who once had a dream where he saw everyone as lights and energy. He saw no reason to judge anyone. His preconceived idea of what people should be was what they were. Everybody was God because God was love and everybody was love because energy is love. You've heard the cliche You're perfect just the way you are. Everyone has, or at they very least read it somewhere or seen it on TV. I doubt that you fully believed it. They are obviously exceptions. Hitler wasn't perfect. Satan isn't perfect. That mass murderer who raped all those kids isn't perfect. You aren't perfect. I'm here to say that the only people (used as loosely as possible including whatever you want: animals, aliens, AI, inanimate objects) who aren't perfect are the ones you don't think are. You can think that everybody is perfect because perfection is purely what you are or what they are. It takes nothing. You can have it because you want it. You are faced with a choice. Do you want to be perfect? It doesn't mean that everybody else is inferior. Quite the opposite. It means we are all the same.
The opposite of love isn't hate. The opposite of love is pain. They are often confused because they often walk hand in hand.
Humanity is like an equation. There are many expressions within it that differ greatly, but they are add up to be the same; zero. You are neither negative or positive. There maybe negative or positives in you expression but its up to you whether or not negative is bad and positive is good. When you think about it like that, zero becomes a very powerful number.
You can never truly love someone until you know them, or you can't truly know someone until you love them, or both. This does not mean that you cannot view everyone as equal.
Empathy is a curse. It allows you to feel the weight of all of the emotions that everyone constantly carries. Empathy is also a blessing. It takes your own weight that you carry and replaces it with love, understanding, and companionship.
Although the distance is daring, I sure know what its like to be alone.
