The second craw wasn't there at all

Nov 30, 2005 00:03

I've always been slightly terrified/haunted by the idea that I had to Do Something with my life, and that that Something had to be big and important, because otherwise it would mean that my life was being squandered. It occured to me, though, that the living of it all should come first, and the doing will either follow naturally, or it won't, but ( Read more... )

Discordians will tell you we live for two reasons: to have fun, and to mess things up. Most others will tell you we aren't actually alive. Keeping both of these in mind, the concept of Doing Something with your life becomes not only overrated, but a little superficial. As such, feel free to rock out. *rocks out*

Taoists will often tell you that words are really more trouble than they're worth. If they can't describe the Really Important Things without marring them, then what's the point? We make words, we define words, we use words - we are masters of words. But when we set our thoughts to words, they become entities seperate from us. We can stare at them triumphantly because we have created them, and also because they are different from the original. Plato said that our concept of "a tree" and the trees in proximity to him bore no resemblance. He has a point... the concept of a "tree" applies both to oaks, alders, firs, and maples alike, despite that these are all very different from each other ( ... )

Cate wants cake!
But I suppose that would be like "fishing for trout in a peculiar stream" -Shakespeare (or some moderation made by Lizzy and co.) however sense I dont have a particular fondness for "AH FISH!!!!" -ME as proved by my killer guppy experience perhaps the fact that even emily jones inquiring if "the testing made us tired..." and how it went would only produce unanimous "BUBBLES" -Nikki, Lauren, Aarthi, Lizzy and Me will convence you that I need a piece of cake.

Eloquent post by the way. I'm all about cutting the cake down so it fits in the box, even if you loose some of those edges. The problem with philosophy as I see it is that much of the time in out attempt to expand the box or get out side of it we really are just reaganging it perhaps making a trapazoidal prism. I am content just to explore the box, it's pretty darn big. mmmm chocolatey filling.

You and your boxes. But see, by leaving the contents of the box undefined and exploring them later, you are giving yourself the flexibility to find the cake that would otherwise be outside the box. So really, you're just discovering that the inside of your box is much bigger than the outside. I wish I had a cake like that...
