pieces of what

wow, two blogs in one month. that's nearly more than enough for me:P
don't get me wrong though, my mind isn't lazy...it has just been seriously pre-occupied with redundant, pathetic, dreamy escapades/fantasies/hopes/wishes/soap drama-like scenes.

this is mostly in response to the anchovy's post, simply because it was sad. well it was very thought-provoking, but sad. It's sad to think that we are on this world to 'merely exist'.

if there was one thing eve should have done, it was to ask God how to live. eating the apple was fine because if we really think about it, if she didn't eat the apple, then we wouldn't have this gift of free-will. through that we've just developed our personalities, our habits, our mind-set, our drivesss, our motivations, our artistic flare (or lack of), our interests, our narcissism...

as with everything, it seemed that some good came out of it...some:S

in contrast, i think human nature is the "most philosophised, agonised, mulled over, argued, analysed and emotionalised topic in the history of mankind". I mean, why are people the way they are? Why do some people feel the need to push and shove? What makes emerald eyes hot? Why do people treat friends like shit? Why does the world need to know about what i'm thinking? Why do we have to feel belittled if we can't look/act like Lady Gaga? (she almost made humping an inflatable whale hot)

at the end of everyday, i feel like there just has to be more. i mean, sure enough i allow a conversation with certain people (someone) affect how i view my day. but as i prepare myself for a newwww day, i feel like there just has to be more.

i mean, why do i feel like that? i feel mediocre. but then again, you can't just mill around and expect a big bang to signal the start of a 'new satisfying life'.
Oh, and there it is, the answer to my problem.

we have legs that can take us places, hands that can write a million stories, a mouth that can criticise&encourage, a mind that craves and a heart that can withstand a break.
there's no such thing as the end of the world until that golden chariot reigns down. and until that day, we are supposed to just do so much more than we are doing r i g h t n o w.

you have to tell yourself what you want. otherwise you'll always forget it, especially when lady gaga tells you that all you care about is runway models, cadilacs & liquor bottles.

you just have to tell yourself what you want and well, just run.




there's a place I'd like to go somewhere out west,

it's not specific, and the pictures show it best.

I know there's trees I know there's sand and I know there's grass,
I know it's somewhere in the past.

Hmm. Interesting post, except with one thing I have to disagree (respectfully, not patronisingly!): I think that we had personalities, habits, artistic flair etc. before the existence of sin. I think our personalities are given to us by God--and then, throughout our lives, we are responsible for choosing how to develop our own character. And we had free will before we had sin--thus, free will allowed Eve to choose to eat the apple! Hence sin. I don't think anything good came out of sin. Except maybe lustiness (see my new post). Just joking. I do not approve of being lusty. At all. Tsk.

PS. I like MGMT too :]
PPS. You have to download Bruises by Chairlift! So pretty!
PPPS. "why are people the way they are? Why do some people feel the need to push and shove?" -- EXACTLY.
