big question

[mellow mood]

sometimes i feel strange. i mean, there's so much unhappiness in the world, so much poorness everywhere and so much ppl suffering... how can we live our life normally, and make cash and everything exploiting poor ones? i find it disgusting. millions of persons are dying every years, and we are here, living our life making money and living in luxure.

do we have the right to let all this happen? we live in a such disgusting system, that makes me depressed. isnt life more than caring about ourselves? what is happiness? what is happiness for you? is it simply to live your own little life, caring about nobody? how can we be happy will all the pain in the world? is money can really make you happy?

damn that pisses me off. we are so uncouncious. when i look at all this money and material it seems so stupid. whats the point of all this. all this shit is nonsense. everybody have a such simple view of happiness. everybody prefers to sit in their lazyness. im a part of this shit, we are all a part of this. we are part of a system that murders hundreds of humans each day. how can we simply find happiness in a fuckin system based on consuming material.

fuck man, it sucks, really. please help me

the ugliness of humanity right now is only a passing thing. we're going through a big transformation right now. dont worry about it.

the mayans predicted the end of the world to come December 25th 2012... hopefully they were right

[mellow mood]

[easyg]

you just got to do what you can....like it says think globally act locally

I know the world is being screwed up by us, me and the gf were saying how an epidemic or some such is needed...we're too succesful

small acts of kindness in the first instance though...

all you need is love, love... love is all you need

i agree and think that we need to change our ways of thinking about wealth and happiness being so connected.

dammit...

1. its december 21st.
2. they didn't predict the end of the world. maybe the end of the world as we currently know it, but they didn't mean everyone will die or the planet will be destroyed. the mayans believed the world moves in a cycle of five suns, each characterized by an element - earth, water, fire, air, and ether. on december 21st 2012 we enter the age of the fifth sun. i don't feel like talking about what that means, so look it up yourself if you want to.

actually, the shift is supposed to happen between 1987 and 2012, explaining all the bullshit humanity is going through and causing right now... 2012 is just the peak of the change. the years before it are supposed to be characterized by war, natural disaster and famine.

Think about this:

famine, suffering, unhappiness are all things that you were brought up to have a negative connotation. Just because you were told it's bad, doesn't nessacarily mean it's bad. You have to think universally. In the scale of the universe, do you think fate cares about a bunch of ethiopians? No way! It is a concept i've been trying to grasp that no one really understands quiet yet.

Is suffering actually a bad thing? If so, ask yourself this, WHY? Try and give an actual reason why suffering, famine, unhappiness are a bad thing. Then once you have an answer to that, ask yourself "why?" again. It goes on forever. Good and bad are simply human ideas. If an extra-terrestrial were to land on the earth and see famine and suffering, chances are, it wouldn't understand why it's portrayed as 'bad'.

i look at it this way, after we die, material possessions and everything else dont matter at all. so if your like, i dont wanna die today because of all the stuff goin on for me... well you wont need it.

love, peace, - smile on eternal.
