Yeah same man, if being homeless did anything it made me understand and appreciated the value of a safe place to live. If overdose taught me anything it was that life is fragle and again to really value just being alive, I'm the same way, I lean the hard way always have, probably always will.

im too greedy to give up all those sweet sickly gratifying emotions :yesnod:.. there is no story without highs and lows nor music without tone and tempo (imo)

adorno wrote some shit apparently about how pop music is crap because it divorces the good bits from the rest, the context, the build up, the downs and the real pleasure is actually lost..

what is a climax without foreplay (etc etc)

:drunk:

Blissful zombie? Hells yeah!


Ive long thought ignorance is bliss, even as  a child i found myself wondering if the 45 year old in a helmet having a killer time with his coloring book was way better off.


Even without the bliss i would take being a zombie. Even though im only 23, ive been through relationships, marriage and divorce, drug use and addiction, a few incredibly breif spiritual/religious highs, all my family dramas and good times, times with more money than i could count and times with nothing more then the outfit i was wearing.

Out of everything, i have never experienced any love or pleasures that make the suffering and bs worth it. Maybe one day ill be lucky enough to experience something that will make me feel as though any of this is worth it :shrug:

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering. What the is, is for each of us to define. Don't you think that all that suffering has taught you something? I know all mine has and I would not trade them for the world, we define ourselves in the struggle, like a butterfly coming out of a cocoon for the first time, building strength in its wings that it will later use to fly and be beautiful you are the same way my friend. Never underestimate the power that you hold, never take for granted anything life throws your way, never avoid it, never try and get it, let yourself be at one with everything, make peace with the suffering, it wont go away, but the resistance to it will and life is hope more beauty and meaning then you can handle.

you have to create love inside of yourself. It is not a reward for dealing with BS in life, but rather it is a guiding light that lets you see into a brighter future. it is generated inside of you when you use logic and reason, but it is destroyed by the willingness to let life unfold around us with no attempt being made to shape it toward anything better.

love and progress are inherent to each other, so without progress there can be no love, and without love there can be no progress.
