| Friday, February 15 2008I found this recently, i wrote all of this a long time ago but i found that alot of it is still trueDefining me.Introduction To separate myself from the seeming endless supply of manufactured persons to be found on the internet, i have decided to break myself down piece by piece to define to myself and others who i truely am.Aside from the introductory message i send everyone upon their initial friend request, i do not get a chance to talk to everybody who wants to talk to me. Also, i get tons of questions and criticisms about my beliefs and habits.So by reading this you will get a chance to have some of those F.A.Q.'s answered and explained.And as i said as i type this i also learn about myself as well.Sometimes it takes something of this nature to really think about who oneself really is. Keep in mind i will be adding sections and chapters periodically, so please check back often if you wish to understand me fully.If not, please hit HOME and click refresh on your homepage until something new eventually appears.AnarchismSection I: Anarchist?!ANARCHISM COULD NEVER WORK!!Im not sure how many times i've heard that comment upon revealing that i am in fact an anarchist . Sadly the usual common consensus behind the comment is the thought that anarchism is simply nothing more then "chaos" and "an irrelevant attempt at a lawless society that will never be achieved".I've found that usually the dictionary.com definition of anarchism is usually used against me, and that happens to be a tragically askew definition.Allow me to start by saying that there is not simply one "anarchism" but each person has an individual anarchism of their own, with the common goal of us all being remotely the same.Our ideal society (to be explained later).However if you want a fast simple definition for anarchism, boiled down to the most basic elements of the practice in which everyone who practices anarchism believes, this definition (or idea if you will) is simply this "The idea that no external source (be it another human being or morel code i.e. religion) could possibly have higher authority over oneself THEN oneself."This also meaning that we do not need a higher authority to watch over us to keep us "on track and on task" or enforce laws upon us.So the comment anarchism could never work is simply untrue.All of us can have the inherent ideas to be kind and courteous to one another, granting each other autonomy.We have all seen my comrades fighting, protesting and burning oppression on the television.Many ask, if youre such a proponent of peace, why do you use violence.The answer is simple, this is not violence.Destroying a slaughter house, or a company that supplies weapons that kills is not violence, it is intelligence.F.A.Q.'s and Comments i get on anarchism, and my responses:Are you doing this to be cool- No.What is anarchism- See my definition aboveAnarchy is stupid- Read into it.Do you like, smash and destroy stuff?- no way ;-] GenderSection I: No Gender?!THAT MUST MAKE YOU GAY!Once again, the endless stream of mindless the internet messages from "xmiss murderx"and the like is incorrect.I refuse to accept gender into my life, because i do not want to have to live my life in the set path set out for my sex from birth.Boys do not have to be tough, girls do not have to be subtle.I do not have to be a boy, or a girl, this is my choice not yours.Also, personally i am not homosexual or bisexual, yet i avidly oppose homophobia.SexismSection I: Anti-Sexist?!THAT MEANS YOU HATE SEX RIGHT?Sexism- The idea that one gender is for some reason inferior to another and acting accordingly, denying rights or privileges to one gender just for being that gender.Allow me to explain, I treat men, women, transsexuals, aliens and any other gender out there the same, and base my opinions of the person, only on their actions behavior and ideals.A concept not extremely hard to grasp, yet for some reason commonly mis-understood by my friend count.VeganismSection I: Vegan?!DID YOU JUST START THIS TO BE COOL?No. Not to be scene either.I dont like my food to of had to suffer.Nor do i enjoy eating feces or any of the other trash they toss into commercial meats.enough said.If you want the reasons for being vegan visit peta.com(i am no longer vegan) ReligionI have no religion, NONE (not even atheist).Religion segregates Thursday, February 7 2008Testing my bodyI read this recently:Water fasting is a complete contradiction to the high-octane rush of the North American lifestyle.Think of water fasting as a stripping down time, a period of brokenness, humility and profound inner reflection.Due to a high metabolism, I find fasting on water difficult.Water fasting for me is crawling under the covers in warm flannel pajamas, entering deep into that inner place of prayer with bible beside my bed.The world around becomes obscure and far away.Everything goes in slow motion and the things that yesterday were all too familiar, become strange and unimportant.Values systems make quantum shifts, what was impossibly urgent becomes frivolous.It is a deep dreamy state, an altered consciousness.Personally i don't believe in any form of religion, however I will be doing this for one week exactly, that is only water, no food whatsoever.I'll keep everyone updated.I enjoy testing myself and trying new things to achieve a higher form of awareness in everyday life.I do this only for myself, certainly not any god or religion.This idea came to me from a friend who is also fasting for one week.I would like my water fast to have a point as well, the fact is that everything you eat comes from exploiting someone, or an animal, i would like to show how important it is to eat organic foods, ESPECIALLY home grown to avoid any sort of exploitation of humans or animals alike!Drink up =]Tuesday, February 5 2008Todays meditation revelationDo it yourself, honestly if you want a material possession that you cant make or repair yourself, it really isnt worth having.By buying things from large corporations you unknowingly support all kinds of grotesque things (see justin on my top friends blog for more info).However when you make something, and put your time into making it it is organic, you know exactly what that object went through, who handled it and how exactly it was made because you yourself did it!also home made items seem to last longer because they mean more to you, it took your own energy to create something you needed therefore you will more then likely take better care of it and get more use out of it.If any of my friends make me something, it will always mean more to me then if they bought me something, because i know it took serious thought to make the drawing, carving, or utensil.That will stick with me alot longer then a hallmark card, and i'm sure many of you feel the same way.To paraphrase, i believe that justin will agree with me when i say D.I.Y. til we fucking die.Give it a shot, be innovative,and if you make anything cool PLEASE send me pictures, OR THE ITEMS THEMSELVES!everyone likes friendly gifts.Id be more then happy to make any of you something =] also a quick note on loveI really would rather fall in love spontaneously then grow into it.Its my belief that if you are locked in a room with a member of the opposite sex for a year, when you exit that room you will love that person, have sex with that person, and never be able to look at anybody else, because you will just so deeply know that one individual.This is just my opinion, but i believe everyone will agree when i say that I personally don't feel that one needs to LEARN how to love, it is an inherent feeling that everyone needs to open up to.So for my position, id rather fall in love, then grow into it, i find it to be more pure that way.Thursday, January 31 2008Todays meditation revelationIn this life this existence of all things... if you think hard about whatever religion you stem from (i.e. going to heaven, hell, ect.), or lack of religion (personal beliefs about what happens after death) what is the end result.whats the end gain in life, or existence in general.If your life is ment to be lived for a divine purpose then what is the purpose of that purpose.What is the absolute point of existence?The point of everything being here, so intricate, so delicate, being in love, hating, forgiving.Personally i will choose to live my life according to my own grand design, how will you live yours?The answer to the point of existence, its inside you...look for yourself as i've done and you'll find it.What is so special is that anybody can find their personal truth, and its ALWAYS correct.Thursday, January 10th 2008 Social Experimenti posted my email and password in a bulletin, it took literally 30 seconds for someone to get on, and change my password again, and delete my whole about me.i spent a long time on this, the fact that it is not here is a pretty good indication that people are inconsiderate and immature.you hurt my feelings, i put alot into this.i have never done anything with bad intent towards someone else, and the fact that people STILL want to get back at me for something makes me sick to my stomach.This is why i enjoy doing these little social experiments, to show everyone how shitty the world can be.I'm a good guy.youll all find out one day. |
