I like Leary's idea that we all create our own reality. I choose not to give a shit what society is doing.

I used to be apathetic, but i just don't care enough anymore
-------------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

it's cool. i'm working my way out.
i graduate in july or august, will have some money saved back + find a job for the next 6-9 months to earn a little more, then when spring comes around, i'll be hitting up a farm for the season. sucks, but this is/was the best plan. i should be able to make enough money in the 9 months with my degree that i can do a few seasons of farming, with possibly looking for a job during the winter
gotta start somewhere, man

Right now our society is a complete result of human nature.
And if you think that an entire world of people will go against human nature, you're mistaken. We're fucked.
As george carlin said, imagine the average person. Think how stupid that person is. Half the planet is more stupid than that person.

That's a cop out if I've ever heard one.
Human nature is love and light. We've been led to believe differently, by our "masters".
And George Carlin, as much I love him.. is the epitome of cynical.
The "average person" is a direct result of our fucked up, backwards-ass "culture", that has been under the control of a small group of elites for the past several thousand years. People are stupid? Am I supposed to be surprised? A world with shit for education that is raised on carcinogenic chemicals, and whatever the TV tells them to think?
If you are trying to tell me it's "human nature" to stab each other in the back, rape each other and the planet, viciously fuck each other over always trying to gain the upper hand on the next guy, and murder for the fuck of it, you are the one that is sadly mistaken. That is conditioning. Not human nature.
We are spiritual beings having a physical experience. Our world is at a crossroads, and has been under control of a dark cabal for a long time. The "truth" of the matter is slowly beginning to surface, and all will be revealed in time. But we must live in the present. Now is the time. It is the only time. And RIGHT NOW.. there is an intense battle going on. On many levels. There are those who wish to maintain their chokehold and power over humanity by whatever means necessary.. using FEAR and INTIMIDATION as their main tactics, and those who demand they be dethroned and our rights as sovereign, peaceful beings restored. Make no mistake.
"Society" is just another word for the "organization" that controls this planet. Perhaps I should have used a different word. But I can assure you, the mass majority of real people do not wish for death and destruction. Those who do are seriously deluded.
We need to get our act together, and take responsibility for our actions. Life is about living, this planet supports our existence, and we share it. We are all people of Earth. We are all humans. Love is the nature of humans.
Or you can just buy into the lies and play god. Overpopulation is a real problem. 6+billion people on a planet that should only support about 500 million. So, you can either work with the planet.. help it heal, help support it, and take whatever comes naturally. Or you can join them, play god, and decrease the population through force.. by whatever means necessary. Just know that everyone reaps what they sow.
We are not fucked. Society as we know it, is fucked. Those who fuck themselves, are fucked. Humanity will evolve, and it will flourish.
NO ONE is above the Laws of the Universe.

You seem to be very dissillusioned. Have you not read any history? The history of humanity is not filled with stories of love and peace. Human nature is to stab each other in the back, rape each other, and the planet, viciously fuck each other over and murder for the fuck of it. Humanity's history is full of genocide, ignorance, and hate. Why do you think it is that humans organize governments? If human nature was all about respect and love they would be unnecessary. I'm all about having a positive outlook on things, and I think we can, and have improved the human condition drastically, especially in the last 200 years, but you're just being foolish.
Take 100 random people and stick them on an island. It's almost always gonna be Lord of the Flies.

History is written by the victors of war. Our history is far from complete.
Lord of the Flies? Apparently you haven't ever been stuck on an island..
I think people watch too much TV. Real life is different. I realize there is a lot of stories of war and death. Because that is what we focus on. No doubt a lot of our recent history is fucked up, and no doubt the 'powers that be' and have been.. have played a VERY LARGE role in all that. And no doubt many people have a very fucked up view. But.
If human nature is to senselessly maim and murder one another, why do we exist? We should have killed each other off long ago. If that's human nature, then I must not be human. Because you try to kill me and those I love, I will defend myself and protect our lives with every ounce of my being. Humanity does not thrive on murder. It thrives on love.

Is it really society's fault though? People are all just stuck in a cycle of becoming stuck in theirselves and too caught up in their lives.
If only there was a way to show them to not be so scared and serious about everything.
