Breukelen advocaat Reviewed by Breukelen advocaat on 10-04-2006. A revolutionary. Greetings, cannabis.com users. I've come back to you in this time of need with a request...obviously. My english class is asking of me to write an essay of the three most influential people of the twentieth or twenty-first centuries. I'm looking for something a bit more than just influence, though. Fergie from the Black-eyed Peas influences little girls to parade around shaking their humps, while not taking a stand for whatever it is she's trying to promote. She's being used by the system Rating: 5

...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ummm, theres lots of ideas in this thread, just pick one.

Maybe Bill Gates/Steve Jobs. I suggest watching the movie "The Pirates of Silicon Valley" it shows how they are responsible for the personal computer. A pretty big invention if you ask me. They made a big impact in the world.

There are plenty of ideas. I have to write about three people and I'm a little uncertain how I want to approach the essay. I could easily jot down some mindless essay that's standard to a teacher's expectations in apathetic students, but obviously that's not me. I had the thought of using Britney Spears. She's influential, but in a more superficial way opposed to the likes of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I'm not educated enough on these great men and women who've revolutionized the way societies thinks as a majority. It's sad, I know. These superficial influences are observable, but the great ones--one must delve into their minds. Understand them and believe in them.

[Ganj]

There are many great ideas here. And I thank you all.

Haha, well if you were even considering writing about Britney Spears, you're better off just spewing out some nonsense off the top of your head about MLK or JFK. Seriously, come on. She's just another moron leading the slaves down the path of conformity and all that is against revolution and free thought.

If jotting down 'some mindless essay' isn't you, DO NOT use that barbie doll. Open some doors with your words. Of course, that might not be you. From the sounds of things, it isn't. Good luck though.

Interesting quote, Billionfold. I had a thought very similar to that idea: Our souls are suspended at the heavenly gates until we find what is missing to continue our path into divinity; as Gods with God.

I totally agree, man. We should all find the doors in our mind, instead of being consumed by this mental slavery. I suppose agony is the only way to bring light to this profound concept of being "eternal". I'm not very articulated on the matter myself. Perhaps it's something you're inclined to share? Or maybe you'll just conform to Morrison's technique and attack society with their insecurities?

[Ganj]

I must admit, however, that I have not had the most easy endeavor into the 'the other side'...it's been a dark one. One that if I shared with you would probably turn into a therapy session. Haha.

Lol, I never mentioned anything about conforming to his ideals or way of life. I used that quote because (1) I like it, and (2) the topic reminded me of it. Plus him yelling that to a crowd of people is just funny.

But seriously, Britney Spears?

edit - - sometimes writing down your thoughts/experiences sheds new light on the subject. I'm sure you've done this though. If you haven't I suggest you do, especially if you're struggling with enlightenment.

Ahh (sigh of relief), observe this soul who's graced me with his kind words. Although if it had not of been for the cruel ones before we might not have had this connection. I've found a website that epitomizes this revolution of mind (that phrase has grown on me recently). I get stuck, man. Somewhere between thought that I cannot let go of and enlightenment, yet when I feel my foot in the door it is slammed shut and I pummel deep into the fiery chasm from whence I came.

I have this horrible habit of over-analyzing things (like most of society). I've come to the agreement that I'm indeed afraid to let go of thought, as if I'm losing something when I do. Even though I realize that all I'm losing is the restraint the thought presents itself with such great influence that it's almost impossible to avoid. And again, I'm thrown into the vast universe of the mind.

That song by Jim Morrison, The Universal Mind. Would thought be what he was trying to capture with that song? You can see, now as can I when I fall back into thought.

Here's the website: http://www.theosophical.org/theosoph...son/index.html

P.S. Surely you still have difficulties remaining enlightened. I have friends who think they've reached this stage of enlightenment, yet when I'm around them they fall back into the realms of thought. Upon arrival they persecute me for having sent them there. What gives, man?
