Survival of the Stupidest
I have trouble believing that i am a truly intelligent being.It's not because of some reason that has to do with science. It's because every species does what it has to, so that it may survive. Including ourselves. the only reason that we are considered intelligent beings is because we invent things.
However,the only reason that we are inventing things is so that we can survive. Same with discovering. think that we use discovery not to just learn more about the universe but to also find a way to survive in it as well as find new places to survive in.I also believe that all this is done in our subconscious.
We are not much aware of this for the reason that our subconscious is something that we cannot really comprehend. This is why there is no proof of what I am writing. We have no right to call ourselves intelligent beings for the reason that we are only creating new ways to survives and new tools for making survival easier.We could have easily lived without cars or television or whatever else there is that we can think of. The only reason we have them is because we don't want to work for our survival.
The downside of all this is that with the means of survival also comes the arrogance of destroying what threatens our existence. The human race has for thousands of years tried to destroy what it thinks would destroy it. The fear that has been placed in humans is what consumes them. After a while. humans turned on each other, creating war. Then humans turned on the stronger species (as we would call them) and created extinction. we cannot deny that humanity has done more than its fair share of destruction to this planet.
We consider ourselves the smartest because we have a supposed freedom of thought and personality. Well personality may be true, but freedom of thought is debatable. Every creature has a basic instinct of survival. which when threatened comes out to threaten back. Well for right now this is all I will say on the matter. I will return later when I feel like I have more on the topic.

Tradition Crazy
You know I've noticed something. We as humans can't seem to live without tradition. We have come up with more traditions than we can name and its ridiculous. I mean hear are a few examples; Christmas, Easter,New Years, Halloween, Hanukkah. Not to mention not to mention all the individual "Family Traditions". We are a race of beings about so much and yet we are obsessed with tradition.
If we lived in a world without tradition it would be like a world without war. Totally silent. No More people yelling for change, no more religious wars or maybe even racial beliefs. I make it sound good now but if we actually lost tradition our world would lose meaning. It would lose its liveliness.
Our society needs tradition not just for personality but for economy to. If it weren't for tradition our economy would go down the crapper. Not just one country but the entire planet. Traditions are what cause people to buy things and to spend extra money. Here's a Christmas fact for you "four 457.4 billion dollars were expected to be spent on Christmas in 2006". I'm not sure that this is accurate but its scary to think about it none the less. And whats more it would only cost 10.2 billion dollars to solve the planets water problem. I don't care what you say tradition is what keeps our planet running. that is why we are tradition crazy.

death by _______?
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.
