Balance

-
I always find it a little strange when people talk about balance and harmony as being two things: right and wrong, good and evil. That would mean that for the world to be balanced, there would have to be as much evil as there is good, and I just don't believe that. Instead, think of balance as standing on one foot. Are you doing two things? No, just one: balancing. Balance and harmony aren't about opposites but rather about everything being one thing. The key to balance is not being pushed or pulled in any one direction but rather choosing the path that you want to take. An unbalanced life is one where you're not making the choices yourself. Good and evil are just the terms we use to describe whether or not something was fortuitous for us. Balance is about knowing the value in everything we encounter.

There is no such thing as "racism"

Do you know what one of the main problems is with modern day society? We're taught not to discriminate based on race. And while that might seem like a good thing, and you might be rather outraged right now, the entire concept is fundamentally flawed. The problem is that teaching people this concept instills them with the idea that there is such a thing as "race." There isn't. "Race" is a socially construct based on a person physical appearance or geographic location. Genetically, there is no basic difference between one person and the next. Obviously, because we're all different, there are genetic deviations. But there is nothing to establish "race." There might be differences based on a person's ancestral geographic home, where an entire group of people gathered in a specific type of environment and procreated based out of a small genetic pool. And there might be physical differences because of those environments and the extensive amount o

OF ALL THE STUPID @#$%^*&(*%$#@!@#$^%&*((*&^%$#Q@$#$%&*^&()) I HATE when I do that. I accidently deleted everything I was working on. So I apologize 'cause I'm not writing it again. I'll give you the short version of everything I was gonna say. 1. Fear Factor has little to do with fear, it should be called Stunt Factor...and it sucks 2. Comedies are too sappy, but only some of them suck 3. My buddies at Cinescape don't suck, and here's a nice shout-out for them: Osirus, Jakester, Rosetta, Meathead, Skiv, Wallflower, Neglet, Fredcomics, Rexxax or Rezzax or something like that, umm......Daforce, Slamshut, LeiterCIA, and I know I'm missing a ton but in no way am I trying to diss you, I just have a really crappy memory 4. Had a nice little chat the other night got to talk to some great people, so shout out to them (Luigi, BeauBetabi aka Cool Guy, Mr. Black, and I think that's everyone who was from CA) 5. People I miss from CA: A

So Hey. I've been gone a while. I know you haven't noticed. Mostly because i've come to accept that there is no "you". No one reads this but the occasional friend who remembers it exists and checks to see if i've written something about them. Whatever, no big. I really didn't create this with the intention that I'd have a ton of people reading it. I wouldn't mind if there were a ton of people reading it, but what are you gonna do. I don't know how often I'll be posting. I tend to go through these phases. You'll notice that I went through a very dark and fatalistic one a while back. I also go through crazy ones where I'm just off the charts obscure. And right now I'm in a very mellow one, so I don't really have that much to say. And this time I actually mean it. I've got novels I'm trying to write so I'm going to go back to that before I get distracted by the television. So, lata. Song: Stereophonics

Hold on just a while longer

I know I haven't posted in a while, but don't worry, something is coming. I'm just not sure yet what it is. Also, I don't know when it's coming. But I do know that it will be brilliant . (Like anything I do could be otherwise?) Anway, it's coming. So relax. Enjoying a cup of coffee (or tea if that's your preference) and enjoy this nice non-confusing, non-confrontational, and well, non-interesting post. Later Days. (what? you've never watch the Weekenders? please, next you're going to say you've never watch Filmore either. seriously? it's like NYPD Blue for middle-schoolers. it rocks.) Right, so later.

A Round of Applause

I have to say, I'm impressed. I wasn't sure they could do it. But they managed to make my life worse. It was quite ingenious really. First, they get my hopes up by having my parents tell me they'll lend me the gas money to get home, and that I can live with them until I get back on my feet. Nice, right? The only thing I have to do is get out of my lease. No problem, I think. I mean, it's a college town. Most of these apartments are studios, so they're filled with mostly college students. I'm sure my landlords are used to having tenants who get into financial trouble and have to leave. If I'm lucky, I could even get my deposit back. Which would be enough to take care of my ticket, my electric bill, and any other bills that absolutely needed paid. Why, I'd even have enough left over to do my laundry. Maybe even buy a cheeseburger. Ah, but hope was dashed. So very clever. You see, I can get out of my lease, and even get my deposit back, but only, ONLY if I

My heart is broken By Time And by Failed Intentions In a house of Crystal and Polished Glass my Reflection is Distorted I no longer see what I Am But only what I have Become I cut my wrists And give a sacrifice of Blood to the Old Gods But the Alters have been Forgotten And the Gods have left And I am here with Nothing but more Pain to Add to my heavy load My Soul will die in this place I have Shut it Away To keep it Safe To keep my Sanity To Survive But it will Die In a Storage Room of my Steel Heart And When I Leave And Let it Loose Nothing will Come My Soul will Die in that place And I am Soon to Follow I seek Glory where there is none I seek Purpose where there is none I seek Life where there is none And I seek Love Though I miss it when it comes Though I blink when it is in front of me Though I fail to notice it when it leaves Though I can not tell it is there Even as I am feeling it Alone and In Pain The words on my Grave The place where I live Two separate places Yet exactly the
