crumbs,...

I came to this world with nothing,
& I leave with nothing but love
everything else is just borrowed

so I know I've mentioned that album before, & all it's brilliance but come on. Like I wish I could live like that. I think that line is too perfect, too hard to live by, ya know humans & all, selfish desires, hate, war, pain, hunger stuff like that, & I'm not trying to bring the mood down, but if you think about that, & try to implement that into your life, well, maybe you'll find some sort of peace, ya know we (as in humans) get so caught up in so many different things. & I'm not totally clean of it, I can't totally wash my hands of it, but I swear to you, i keep that kind of stuff in the front of my difficult mind, what am I even talking about?

Like the way our society is built almost entirely around money & more importantly greed, but also control. I mean we are a controlled society, I really think there is such a small portion of us that aren't & a lot of people disagree with me, I know, but you should at least be thinking about things like capitalism, & greed & government. I mean I'll never be an expert on that stuff, because a lot of it bores me or doesn't interest me & I have other things tugging at me, I mean would the iPod ever have been made if it wasn't for certain elements of capitalism? probably not so I understand the relevance of free-market business & such, but where do we draw the line?

so thanks for the advice ya know? It's amazing how a few words from a mate, or your bird, can totally get you out of trouble, like gutter trouble. Even if you already know it, maybe they'll approach it, or present it from a different angle, & words are powerful, I know I'm not breaking any ground here but keep it in mind, we should all help each other out more.
