I’m sick and tired of everyone wasting time whining to each other over every “crisis” that arises on this earth. Does anyone realize how far we’ve come and how much time we waste on whining? Is there anyone reading this who would rather be thrown back into the dark ages, or the times of slavery, or perhaps live in Poland during the year 1939? Do you think these people may have had it worse than you? Does anyone understand the simple reality that this life is often very ugly, difficult, and always full of trials and tribulations? Why do we still sit around and expect everyone to be perfect and expect our ignorant decisions to result in a utopia? Why does it take some major catastrophe to wake us up and stop being complacent for five minutes? Why do we forget that FOREVER, there have been unfortunate souls living amongst us that are in poverty, sickness, war, oppression, and certain death?
It is simple….It’s because we are part of a convenient, ignorant, and selfish culture that praises idiotic things. We forget that all the material things around us are (perhaps fun & great), but for lack of a better word; CONJURED UP! Yes, conjured up. Gold, diamonds, currency, possessions, and so on are things that we prize because we are told to prize them. Yes, they are valuable to us, but what do they actually mean? They mean that we are comfortable being distracted by them instead of being distracted by the realities in life. So think about it, did money create houses, food, water, production, and your society? NO they did not. PEOPLE DID. That is a fact. Objects were simply the currency changing hands that were agreed to have some value or meaning. But the truth is, we could have always made things and prospered, and can always do so, regardless of what object is valued. It is up to us to stop conjuring up nonsense and pretending that we must stop progress simply because someone does not throw money at us. Remember, it is all in our imaginations.
Here is an example:
If I have water, and you have food, we can both benefit from each other, right? However, if we are greedy morons that demand RIDICULOUS amounts for our goods or services (Greed), then neither of us benefit. This is what happens today and every day. Now, on the other token, if we simply use our minds and help each other out…we can all survive, and so on…and so forth and blah blah blah.
So please my fellow human beings, stop complaining, stop sitting on your a**, and go DO SOMETHING for your fellow man for goodness sakes. It is not about right or wrong, it is about either living for something, or believing in man made nonsense for the rest of your life. No one is infallible, no one. Time to wake up.
All of my life I’ve noticed that the people take several amazing details for granted while existing on this planet. I’m certainly not the exception, but I’ve slowly come to realize that I can’t waste any more time following mass opinions and routines in order to value the same things as a “everyone” else. In regards to people taking things for granted in life, a perfect example is the instance of crossing paths with someone for the first (or last) time in our daily lives. And no, I don’t mean some “love at first sight” moment, or even an introduction to a new friend or co-worker. I am talking about the daily phenomenon of meeting or even making eye contact with a person for the first time and realizing that you will most likely never see that individual for the remainder of your natural life. This means that person jogging outside of your house you said “hello” to, and the taxi driver who drove you a few blocks into the city, and the high school kid who served you coffee at your local coffee shop. Do we even think of how amazing it is that these instances are often the only times we see these people for our lives? Why is this not important to us? We get to share a small moment of time with people who have been living near us or far from us, but with similar pain, similar trials, similar goals, even similar passions, and instead of cherishing these moments, we go about our day without blinking an eye.
I think about this and I think about what we usually view as being “amazing” in life. And usually that definition does not involve meeting or seeing strangers. In fact, what we consider amazing in life is probably the farthest thing from meeting strangers and most likely involves us getting what we want and moving on. Marriage, childbirth, and graduation on the other hand, are widely accepted milestones in our lives. Not to say these things should not be cherished, but when you think about it, we see our loved ones and friends all the time. On the other hand, we see people on the streets who for all we know might have a lot in common with us, or could be dead by now. Do we care? Not really.
As for me, I cherish these small moments and it helps me to truly ask the right questions when meeting people for the first time. I say enough of these formalities and nonsense traditions in life, the next time you meet someone for the first and last time, I suggest you reach out to encourage them and even share with them how honored you are to have met them in this lifetime. It may seem strange to many people, but I personally would feel encouraged that sometime took time out of their “busy” schedule to be real with me for a moment.
Fear has always been a natural part of life and obviously one of our most important survival tools, but I’ve noticed a ridiculous amount of time and energy being put into illusions of safety vs. actual safety. By illusions of safety I mean the silly superstitions, nonsense habits, phobias, and meaningless routines that several of us go through in order to feel secure about our daily lives; when in reality we consciously open ourselves up to disaster in many other areas of our lives.
Take for example the increasing group of people who fuss about needing a trash can next to public bathroom doors. (So that they can bring a paper towel to touch the door handle upon exiting) This makes perfect sense right? You would not want to touch a filthy bathroom door with your bare hands. Who would?
But don’t forget that the same people who freak out about touching a door handle, will gladly handle things like money, car doors, shopping carts, chairs, books, computers, and the list goes on and on. This just seems very hypocritical to me, and an outright waste of time. And don’t think I need a lesson on O.C.D., because I do have my stupid habits as well…But I digress. As most of you already know, one of the items we touch most often is money, and money happens to be one of the filthiest items around. Actually, in most cases, money is much filthier than any public bathroom door. So why not bust out the paper towels when you are paying for a meal? Oh, all the sudden you don’t need a buffer when it comes to money? I for one have yet to see anyone hand money to a cashier with a napkin, but I’m still young.
So my point is this, why settle on this illusion of safety? Why waste the time, energy, money, and especially the emotion whining over such hassles like opening a door without a napkin? The truth is that we are usually only fooling ourselves, not the germs or the “fears”. We are ALWAYS at risk and there is no such thing as a perfect situation when it comes to safety or germs. Not to say we should not take precautions, but where has our common sense gone?
Now the only question left is this: How’s your fear working out for you?
The good thing about online hysteria over complete nonsenses is that it allows us to put things into perspective. People are making a big fuss over Google using a new favicon this week (it’s a tab image/logo) displayed for a few of their sites. And my reaction is….SO THE F**K WHAT! Why is this breaking news? If some flunky wants to make a logo of one of our English letters in lower case; let them do it and carry on with your lives. Why are you allowing this nonsense to be news worthy? It’s even shown up in my blog here that you are reading now, and I don’t give a damn about google. Or DO I???
My mentors always told me that society would eventually find a way to profit from a humans death, but I never believed it….until now.
Am I the only one who is noticing these ridiculous and imaginary costs that pop up all over the place and simply make no sense? Things we should simply NOT be paying for or simply paying less for. What the hell are we paying taxes for anyway? Where is this money going? Is it for the cops to work harder to give out speeding tickets, or catch j-walkers in the act, or keep us safe from kids who skateboard on sidewalks perhaps?
As a perfect example of a ridiculous and made up expense, I was reminded today that people actually have to pay for something called a “marriage license”. Are you f**king kidding me? A piece of paper from the government that says it is now acceptable to get married? This is ridiculous. Is this a free country or a shake down? It’s just an example of a made up expense and we have plenty of them. It is all nonsense that we conjure up out of thin air and charge people for, when in reality we cannot justify the ridiculous cost. We sit around with all of our possessions, which are not enough, and then imagine more ways to rip each other off for expenses that make no sense whatsoever.
I’m not just blaming “the powers that be”, I am blaming all of us. We are all becoming ignorant and selfish morons who are filled with greed. We would actually stop a funeral if the bill was not paid. This is not freedom, this is not justice, this is not life, this is not compassion. This is insanity.
People wake up. I don’t think we should not pay for anything, but I do think we have not lost our minds and can stop making up fake expenses that put hard working people in more of a jam than they already are.
Society won’t get anything from me but a middle finger. Do it yourself and stop listening to lies.
The majority of people with any common sense will tell you that you “can’t take money with you when you die”. But this statement is technically not true and we have noted the actual amounts that you are allowed to take with you once you depart from this life (shown below). Now you will need to convert these dollar amounts into your own countries currency, and it may not look like a lot, but it does prove that you CAN take money with you when you die.
Option 1 (if going to heaven): Upon death you can take $4.75 cents for the God bus to the gates.
Option 2 (if going to hell): Upon death you can take $3.50 cents for the fun bus to the pit of fire.
Option 3 (if being reincarnated): Upon death you can take as much as you need in order to buy your new entity/body some clothing/and or food.
