How long does a man live, after all?
Does he live a thousand days, or one only?
A week, or several centuries?
How long does a man spend dying?
What does it mean to say 'for ever'?
-Pablo Neruda

My friend Parker believes in "The Net" theory. "The Net" theory is how one experiences their reality, and our experiences are energy. As we continue on with our lives, our memory keeps

The universe is a place where time does not exist. What I mean is, instead of saying time is a flowing river, it is more accurate to say that it is a lake with millions and millions of tributaries. This theory enables time traveling because one would be "hopping" from one stream that is parallel to another.

Maybe our

This is one of my favorite poems and I constantly refer to it. Since we can all agree that nothing in the universe is ever created or destroyed, our being is recycled along with other beings' being. Maybe we are not looking for our soul mate but soul mates. Maybe those we hold near and dear are our soul mates. What does the term 'soul mate' mean anyway?

I believe that we are composed of a whole bunch of molecules of every being you can imagine that once existed on this planet, and through death, our being is mixed and reforms us as different individuals. What I'm getting at is: we are at ease and experience a kind of closeness with certain people because we used to be One.

"Beauty is Pain"

So says Bruce. What's the point of living if you don't have something to live for?

Thucydides

Remember the battle between Athens and Spartans?

Well, after my philosophy class, this got me thinking about justice versus survival.

First of all, when would people put survival before justice? What about justice before survival?

Which one would you fight for? Something that is right? Well then, what IS considered right? Intuition? Environment?

Which would you choose?

Forever Young

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men
Can you imagine when this race is won

Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the mad men
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever young

Some are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
Sooner or later they all will be gone
Why don't they stay young
It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth's like diamonds in the sun
And diamonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams swinging out of the blue
We let them come true
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever
Forever young, I want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?

Time & Timing

Why is it that whenever something that is so wonderful, so splendid - a snow globe per se - can go awfully wrong just in the blink of an eye? For instance, a child playing a snow globe and it slips through her fingers.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

Here's a story; the story of my life:
Girl likes boy #1, boy #2 likes girl, boy #1 just got out of a relationship and is still recovering, boy #2 likes girl but girl doesn't want to ruin the friendship. On top of that, boy #2 is way too far for girl's interest. Or needs.

I hate time. I really do.

PS Girl #2 is a pimp. Yes, she has 5 boys. Seriously.
