There's a few things about the world that are bugging to me...

- First of all, why don't we ever see wild vegetables? I mean think about it; you never go walking around in the wild, and suddenly "hey! There's a patch of carrots/potatoes/beans/peas/radishes/beats/etc" Conspiracies are afoot people. :wtf:

Oh you didn't know? Vegetables were domesticated close to 1,000 years ago.

- On that note, I have no friends spare one that lives very far away. Know why? Because all anybody wants to talk about is mindless dribble, chit-chat about nothing - just whats goin' on today, who's doing what social thing with who, and that wretched media media culture that gets everybody obsessed with mindless dribble like American Idle and what celebrity's cheating on who.

Well don't forget that the present is the only thing that is real. The past and future are just figments of our imagination. Some people have an easier time with not worrying about the future or past and just having a good time living in the present. I do agree with you that a majority of the population never even seems to think about stuff that matters and instead is worried about celebrities or sports teams, but those things are ok in small doses and there are millions of other thinkers out there. Just look at these boards.

Yep, I'm thoroughly dissolutioned with life at this point; quite miserable with it in fact. Nothing ever works out, no hope for humanity, and good things happening are just those rare little moments that give you a quick breath before holding your head under water again. "Life is suffering": Buddha was right.

I feel you, and Buddha was right about some things. Desire creates suffering. I believe he also had a point when he suggested people should abandon hope, because hope is desire. But I would disagree that "Life is suffering". I see the world shrouded in darkness, and all living creatures as lanterns. Humans have a great opportunity to choose if we will resist the darkness. Life comes down to one simple choice really, either be the light in a dark world or wander in darkness. Either way you may find yourself alone during some parts of the journey, but as long as you are in the light you can see some of the beauty in the world around you.

Well, I've had a very powerful bowl of hash after 2 weeks abstinence, and some other things going, and I thought I'd get these off my chest. :stoned: - First of all, why don't we ever see wild vegetables?
