How old were you

[Inferius]

Life is wayyyy too fucking short to let all the negativities get to you.
The media makes a decade seem like such an important lengthy amount of time,
the 60's the 70's etc, but it's not. 1997 to 2007... Passed in the blink of an eye for me, and i'm still young, time hasn't sped up to maximum acceleration yet for me.

Don't waste the time you've been given. Thinking you have a long time to do things always leads to doing nothing.
GRAB LIFE BY THE BALLS.
And then fuckin squeeze until you've got arthritis and your hands are too weak.
And by then, marijuana should be legalized. Move somewhere to enjoy nature, smoke up, and live out the rest of your days laughing.

Inferius Reviewed by Inferius on 11-07-2006. How old were you When did you realized the world/reality is full of pain and suffering? No one asked us to live on plant earth..We were sent here by parents. I am scared to have kids because why would I want them to grow up in this wasteland called earth? To feel pain for the first time, To feel a deep sorrow. And than put them threw the brainwashing school systems where they break you like I was broken. And than to enter the endless struggle of the rat race, Forsed to learn the ways of the world or parish Rating: 5

I guess when I was about 12 is when I figured the world sucked because I was catching beatings that would have killed others and I still had to go on. That was why I turned into a drug addict but, I figured that all out too and quit.
The world don't give a fuck and neither do I. Just leave me and mine alone to do what we do. We hurt no one and break no laws and have some morals.

Half way through freshman year. I kind of knew much earlier but all the shit that I was going through just confirmed it.

I posted something similar on another board, and thought it was relevent to this thread.

I was baked when I wrote it, so... I've read that we live in a conscious universe, and that we are part of that consciouness...that everything is dependent upon our personal perceptions, subjective experience, reaction, and stimuli.

I've read that cells have intelligence as well (A kind of conscious existence) that they perform both assigned tasks, yet also work independently as an individual. This means, they can choose to go against the grain. It might be suggested that when we are out of the natural order of things, our cells react to this 'disorder', and sometimes jump the ship causing all kinds of health problems. it's an intersting concept, but I don't think we have any control over what a single cell does, or how it reacts to stimuli.

The same is true with our world. It is chaotic because the natural order has been interupted by mankind, but my personal philosophy is that we need a bit of disorder in mankinds current state of being, as it can remind us to appreciate the more pleasant things in life.

Poverty can be overcome with a simple acceptance, and appreciation of what we 'do' possess. (it's all in the mind)

Sickness can ironicly calm distress, and many cancer paitients exibit great serenity, love, and compassion even though they are deathly ill.

Perception is everything, and we create our realities on a mental plane.

We can't control everything that happens in life, but we are in control of how we respond, and react to certain events. Consciouness, and our abilty to adapt, accept, and find peace in chaos, is a remarkable thing, imo.

"What we think, we are." (or can be on a mental level)

Happiness, serenity, joy, pleasure, pain, distress, and bitterness are only our minds telling us how to feel, or react to stimuli. In this sense, we are in control, as we have the ability to feel what we want to feel. (emotionaly, mentaly, spiritualy)

Our view of the world is dependent upon how we "choose" to perceive the world. (It's a choice.)

Things are only as bad as we make them, imo...
