Don't they just!!
-------------------- Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe

the aim is to not just simply be honest about it. that's a way to promote cast-off and aimless, and futile, enterprise, in the sense of relieving the ails of hypocrisy. no, the aim is to be vigilant and hold true to your beliefs, and opinions, and essentially rebel. this forum, nor the rest of most elsewhere, is not suited to this kind of life experience. most people fight in this arena, also, due to the political climate in some regions of the world.

Man, that gets my vote for the most wordy, but most vapid post I have seen this year.

I value your custom. Seems these days nobody can listen to somebody else's point of view and possibly consider they might learn something new or interesting about this world, simply because your PoV clashes with their own. It's a shame, really. Welcome to PS&P btw.
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

I'm glad you pointed this out LD, turns out our little Flower and Thanatos are in fact one and the same person. Flower won't be coming back and Thanatos is now on a short holiday.
No fucking shit. I could have told you that after the first FlowerofTitania post I saw.

oh really? how so? care to explain yourself rather than just promote more cast-off? how is it vapid...how i am not promoting more of a challenge, than you? how is what i said not inspiring...because what i find you to say, i find wholly uninspired as well. so we obviously have an issue here. care to try and resolve it?

watch out, Jokeshop might just find that vapid. he wants life to have value past the clock, and past ones own singular beliefs. he wants a utopia.

not vapid at all, by the by. just saying; totally non-vapidity in pointing to the obviousness of Thanatos.

Saying time is money is really selling your life short on potential. If the time of my life were measured in dollars it would greatly cheapen my existence.
I also have a pet peeve when working others and they ask "how much do you charge per hour?".
This means I am required to put a price on my time, if I'm not working in with my wife and boys. So who has deep enough pockets to outweigh the value of my family?
I reply with this and usually am met with a grimace of sorts.

One second can be a hundred dollars, it just depends how you use your time to get your money, the only economical value of life is the time you have, realistically. It's not selling your life short, you can only receive money in time, now if you are using a lot of time for a little amount of money thats when you're selling yourself short

money is just currency. currency also comes in other forms. such as that which makes me feel current (or in currency), and that which makes me fit into the customs of not just the society, but my human nature, and/or then some.
in otherwords, your family is also a type of currency.
