Kronik Bagz Reviewed by Kronik Bagz on . WHAT U THINK LIFE IS? i was jus wonderin how everyone feels about life. what do u think life is? whats tha point? is it really worth it? this is how i feel. i think there are thousands of levels of reality and this one is life. above and below we know as death cause death is not being in life anymore. im startin to think that my reality isnt life at all. i already lived and died. i dont know how or why but this is my hell. the same day over and over without knowing. same thoughts and actions everyday Rating: 5

WHAT U THINK LIFE IS?
for those of you who enjoy a good read, "the lovely bones" by alice sebold is excellent. it may give a little hope.
life is not always what you make of it. some of us are handed a pile of shit and made to deal with it. but there are those who had quite the blissfull little childhood and this great little outlook on life. i think those people need a good dose of reality.
i'm trying to pick up the shattered pieces of my young life wondering what i did to deserve what has happened to me. but in reality i didn't do anything to bring such hardships into my life. it just happened, i was born into it.
my religious beliefs are complicatedly simple. there is a "god." i like to call it nature. not some big dude hanging out on a cloud with some spiffy long white robe and beard. scientifically speaking, life is order in a world of disorder. nature controls this order. humans are no more special than the rodents we so carelessly extermintate because we all originated from the same place afterall. now, imagine what it was like before you were born, no conciousness, absolute nothingness. that, in all likelyhood, is death. of course i hope it's not.
**warning: religious people may be offended by the following**
i believe religion in it's most popular form (organized) was created for two reasons. one: social control. now we couldn't very well have people running around willy-nilly killing, cheating, fucking the neighboor's spouse, etc. conveniently we have handy-dandy rules set out for us under whatever religion one follows, and with it specific penalty, ussually some sort of tortureous after-life. this lovely little rule book sets us up a position of control. well of course the holder of such a position has to be a "god" or a messanger of such. take a look at every and any known society and you'll see at least one common trait: the leader or ruler has some spiritual supremacy, be it the pope, the tsar, or some shaman. i could go on, but i won't. reason number two: a means to comfort human curiosity. most if not all religions teach some sort of after-life/heaven/hell. humans are unique in our comprehension of death (thought not completely unique, a number of other species have been know to show such comprehension). i know plenty people out there are comforted by the thought that they have someting to look forward to, not dread, when their life ends. now there's nothing wrong with believing in something. i just think too many follow blindly without any real thought. my favorite quote (though i don't remember who said it anymore) "religion is a nuerological disorder." i just thought it was funny.
so back to the original question. what is life? does it really matter? we all have it. we just have to live it the best way we know how.

Counselors and psychiatrists are full of crap. Never go for therapy it's a waste of money.
