How would you want to die? Would you want it to be Glorifying, or would you want it to be humble and unknown? A quiet death is what I would prefer. A death that is quick and painless just seems to easy. I would prefer a death that is plagued by sickness and slowly wastes me away. Though I don't want to grow old. I would definitely like to die young. This way I won't have to deal with watching all my older friends and family dieing before me. I wouldn't have to deal with watching myself lose all that I held close to me.
A quick death would be nice to not heroic or anything like that, just a quick painless injury that would finish me immediately. like a broken neck from a car crash. quick painless you would never even see it coming. that would be my second choice of death.
I bet your thinking I'm being really pessimistic talking about how I want to die. I'm not trying to be.I just think that its good to think about the possibilities of what might happen to you and what you would prefer. I also think that I need to make others aware of my thoughts so that you all can come up with your own ideas. Organizing thoughts like these is a powerful method of preparing yourself for what comes along.
Not to mention it helps you when you want to talk to a friend. You can think about something that you wrote down like this and you can ask them their opinion and their ideas. Its truly helpful. But I need to get back on topic.
If you were to die heroically, how would you want to die? Saving a friend maybe; or how about saving family, maybe you stop a robbery. What ever the case how would you want to die if you died heroically.
If I ever were to die heroically which I hope to god doesn't happen. I would want to stopping a shooting of some sort. Or i would want to die by pushing a friend out of the way of a car. something just powerful enough to be noticed by but to be remembered by necessarily.
I have given you my opinions on how i would like to die. Now I would like to hear yours.

I Never Had Any Marbles To Begin With
All My friends say I'm insane
I half believe it myself
My marbles
I don't remember any marbles
When did you last see me with marbles?
NEVER!!
Ha, I knew you were lying
I'm telling you I don't have any of those small glass balls
You say I do!
Well
What colors were they?
How large?
Can you tell me anything?
No...
Well then I guess our conversation is finite
Good day to you sir!
And give me back my melon.

Living Art
What is artistry? This is something I am just realizing.It seems artistry is something that we don't just use as entertainment or expression; like theater and painting. Artistry is I think also takes a form in just about everything from war to studying a book for school. We search daily for our steady routine. If something causes us to deviate it throws us off of our stroking and finessing our daily lives out the way it only makes sense to us.
to me humanity is one big play with the earth as the stage and our cities and lives hundreds of different sub-plays that work together giving the big picture to whole different place. Artistry is something that we can and can't control. We live in a story line where we create and we are created. We are art and we make art. Think about that. think about whether or not we are creating art externally on a piece of paper maybe; or if we are the art that is still being finished.
If art is a single entity like a painting or a sculpture. Then why can't humanity be the same way. There will always be difference but at the same time there will always be similarity. Those differences and similarities with some people and not with others while it works vice versa. I can pretty much guarantee world peace will never come true. That is where human artistry comes from. The art of the personality is created from the lack of peace. If world peace were to occur humanity would completely be altered. Humans would lose their culture their individualism and everything that mentally separate's them from common animals. Simply free will, will disappear.
All artistry has beauty. whether grotesque and horrifying or happy and peaceful. Our world is living and thriving art. A single entity made out of billions of seperate pieces. This is living art.

I've Lost My Mind
I don't get it. It seems to me that we live in a world designed by separation, opinion, and physicality. Constantly, you hear about those people who separate themselves through deeds we deem interesting. But not just good deeds; these deeds are sometimes obscure, stupid, or just flat out criminal. Even if we say we want nothing to do with the event, it caught our interest in a negative way. By saying we don't want anything to do with something, we express that it caught our interest through its negativity, we have it in our interest to to avoid what we think is something bad.
The mind is an interesting thing when it comes to separation. It has a necessity to categorize, without this necessity our world would be as chaotic as a room full of five year old's fighting over a single toy you told them to share. Our minds wold be lost to themselves if we couldn't categorize; we would live in a world of blithering idiots.
Its really pretty ironic though. How can someone lose their mind? Our mind in itself is what dictates our actions and only has control over itself. Our minds can certainly change and be changed but but they can't be lost in the sense of our body having all the control. Such is the implication of the phrase. I do not pretend I know anything about the mind because I don't, I just truly believe that everyone is in control of their own actions no matter what, even if they are insane, they still know what they are doing and are consciously choosing what they do.

the reality in fantasy
What lies inside the mind? The deepest depths of our conscious being. It seems that we have a limitless imagination. Yet some believe that eventually time will end and our world will cease to exist. We have so many books that describe alternate worlds. far from what we would believe in. However if you were to take a look at those books they seem to all have a resounding message. The good will overtake the bad, we will not lose our way of life. Especially in fantasy books like the movie Independence Day . "We will not go silently into the night". It looks to me as though our imaginations are more rational than our logical thinking in slight twisted ways. I love it. Our species is the smartest of all animals in the world. We have made alternate worlds that we can dive into through books and movies. And through these movies and books we get to glimpse the ideas of our world by way of a completely alternate design. In my opinion Authors write there novels to better understand what we go through in real life.
In the books we write and those that we choose to read I believe that we use these books to find something more to relate to ourselves rather than to just look at ourselves without an understanding about our own desires and reasoning. If you ever see someone who is reading a book for the umpteenth time then you can tell they have fond a book that means something to him, and in my opinion he is searching those pages for an answer he doesn't know the question to.
Our imaginations can dictate a whole different part of our subconscious that we hardly ever notice. I believe that we use books to express what our imagination dictates. The creation of a whole new world on the pages that we enjoy so much is really quite an amazing process that not many have yet looked into. We know what it takes to write a novel but we don't really know what creates the inspiration to put these tools to use. And when we look back at the history of books we notice that they have always been used to compile knowledge. When we write a novel we actually use our imagination to create a mixture of other things that we have already read and seen remixing multiple worlds into one. maybe we can create a whole new idea about why we write books
