because of the fact that it is possible your body can not deny the opportunity. so you find yourself constantly wondering where your feet can take you, what your mind can make you.. but you sit and rot in your petty distractions and disuasions
im becoming more and more aware of the mental prison i'm locked in. fear, laziness, monotony(sp?) im sick of it, and im starting to hear a voice calling me out into the unknown. i feel like i have to honor life somehow, and it's not gonna be done sitting around home and building a nexus of government sponsored career opportunity.
essentially i have to get the fuck out of here and see different things. i have no choice

Dude-- GO FOR IT!!!
Right now I am in Florida on my spring break from school...
I came down here with no money and no place to stay, and I have been having the time of my life!! Right now I'm using the computer in the library of the University of Florida. Today is my third and last day here, but the trip has been amazing! I met some wonderful people on the bus trip down here, and some even more amazing people once I got here! I met these two hippie guys who do nothing but panhandle for money and hitch-hike from town to town. I spent the day with them yesterday and they were really great people! We talked all about mushrooms and other drugs and rainbow gatherings and such. The one had this awesome dog that he takes around with him on his travels.
It would take too long for me to tell you all the other amazing things I've seen and people I've met in the few days that I've been down here, but the point is:
Getting out and going somewhere is GOOD! So give it a try!
Just be safe!
I slept in some bushes the first night I was here. It was fun!
I woke up to birds chirping, sunshine, and 75 degree weather when it is snowing and below zero where I live at home!!!
This trip has been so great!
Okay... I'll stop now. Good luck, and take care, Grav!

Yes I'm starting to realize a new duality in my mind:
There's THINKING and DOING, and they must be very carefully balanced in order to get things done
Sometimes I start doing something without putting enough thought into it, and sometimes I put too much thought into something, overlooking the fact that I've still got to physically DO it..
Excellent point to bring up, Grav. I'm starting to notice that RIGHT NOW is the best time to do things. Whenever I start thinking something like "oooo it'd be cool to do [whatever]," I've recently started following that up with "ok well why don't you do it right NOW?" and I'm learning that this is an extremely good way to go about doing things. That may seem obvious, but as somebody who has procrastinated on everything for his entire life, this "NOW" stuff is quite new to me it makes me feel closer to the future, if that makes sense..
-------------------- Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me. In addition: SHPONGLE

yer makin me jealous, Steve... that sounds awesome. I gotta save up some money, then I just want to leave.
yea Matt, I am a fellow procrastinator as well. it really bothers me how much time I spend just sitting and staring, or babbling on about nothing, trying to deny how important experience really is to me.

make a list of everything you need, want to do. Prioritize with A,B,C. never do the B or C before an A.

Farm. Produce what you need to live on this earth yourself. You will find power in this. There are many opportunities for people who want to learn about how to simply live and be responsible for thier exsistence on this planet.
here are some links for apprenticships for organic farms-

I recently have came to a lot of the same conclusions as you did. I am a lazy procrastinator from the start. I realized I am the only one who makes my life what it is. So I have started turning my life around. I still stumble on negative thoughts, but I am isolating them a lot more and ignoring them. I decided to become really ambitious, though, and am headed into a career in music. It definitely isn't a secure life, trying to make it in a metal band. However, I realize all the things we need to do to better ourselves and get along our path to greatness, and I enjoy working on it. A lot of people have their doubts about trying to make it "big" and everything, but I think all the great bands always knew they were the best and had faith. I do. As long as I am in a band that has some people that dig what we do, and I get to write, record, and tour, no matter how big or small we get, I'll love it. I know I'll love every step along the way. Peace.
