People live their lives bound by what they accept to be correct and true, that's how they define reality. But what does it mean to be "correct" and "true"? Merely vague concepts, their "reality" may all be a mirage. Can we consider them to simply be living in their own world, shaped by their beliefs?

This is your Life

November 20, 2009

Here’s one of those pieces of literature that is sonegative, it’s actually inspiring:

“and you open the door
and you step inside
we’re inside our hearts
now imagine your pain
is a white ball of healing light
that’s right, feel your pain,
the pain itself,
is a white ball of healing light
i don’t think so

this is your life
good to the last drop,
doesn’t get any better than this
this is your life, and it’s ending
one minute at a time
this isn’t a seminar
and this isn’t a weekend retreat
where you are now
you can’t even imagine
what the bottom will be like

only after disaster
can we be resurrected
it’s only after you’ve lost
everything that you’re
free to do anything

nothing is static,
everything is appalling (evolving),
everything is
falling apart

you are not a beautiful and unique snowflake
you are the same decaying
organic matter as everything else
we are all a part of the same compost heap
we are the all-singing,
all-dancing crap of the world
you are not your bank account,
you are not the clothes you wear
you are not the contents of your wallet
you are not your bowel cancer
you are not your grande latte
you are not the car you drive
you are not your fucking khakis

you have to give up

you have to realise that someday you will die,
until you know that you are useless
i say let me never be complete
i say may i never be content
i say deliver me from swedish furniture
i say deliver me from clever art
i say deliver me from clear skin and perfect teeth
i say you have to give up
i say evolve, and let the chips
fall where they may

i want you to hit me as hard as you can

welcome to fight club
if this is your first night
you have to fight”

I’ve never watched the movie Fight Club before, and I plan to watch ot this weekend.

Well, needless to say, I do need to watch this movie to get my head in the game.
