We ask constantly of ourselves, when can things define people? Predefining is supposed to be a forbidden fruit in many instances, but we logically must define people at some point. Maybe our ideologies do not permit us to see people otherwise. Maybe we have the conventional view of a man as a fixed being, unchanging, and of roles which fit rigidly but comfortably. Or maybe even we have some truth on our side. Truths which make themselves 'clear as day and irrevocable'.

A Mega Update and some New Worldism
Today is a pretty reflexive morning. School is back in a matter of days. As much as I'm gonna miss my dog, I feel it's about time to blow this popsicle stand, again. This place is just boring and has been cramping my style. I wanna get to fucking work now. With a new outlook, there are new goals I want to pursue in the real world. I'll likely only get out for the purpose of printing something out and going to classes, but one should not sell themselves short so soon. Indeed, I already find it hard to try with people because of my somewhat low self-esteem as of late, and my introverted nature.

Life Holiday/Done with Dejection
An important foreword:
Amid the insanity of the R. Kelly cult, I figured I'd give my two cents. Don't we all see ourselves aspiring to the beautiful people, hoping to join them one day? Whether this is about power, sex, money, affection or the likes, I think this mentality is pervasive. Now, we don't all join up in some weird watersports cult and get pissed on by a narcissistic rapper. But don't we all make some gestures to get what we want?
It's dangerous to think of these people as superheroes. Everyone has skeletons in the closet. Nobody is better than anyone else, and nobody can control another person. If you mean to chase beauty, intelligence, success, etc, the price should never be your soul. Never put yourself in danger. Never wander into torture when looking for pleasure. Never wander into slavery while pursuing the ultimate freedom. You are already so beautiful, and you'll grow even moreso in the future. Just make sure you give yourself the freedom of expression and the care you need!
Life Holiday/Done with Dejection
Masters of choice,
Hear me clearly.
Hear my voice:
I love you dearly.
I've searched for somewhere
Where I can be free
While I settled to this life
These chains, to me.
But I'm plotting my escape
To do the deal shortly
Cybernetic warrior sapient
My mind is full, unhappy.
Take me in, give me food
Even if you take my brain
My body and all
Give me that security of choice
That domino to fall
Crash against this life
Wreck this place
Where people embarrass themselves,
Make me whole
Never been complete before
Caring for others
Never for my own.
Give me some purpose
Stern direction to this blind,
Even with evil at the surface
This mind will be mine.

What the world needs, for the New World
I think we can agree, we live in a society that glorifies courage. Although at times the status quo is so adverse to change that the incentive is towards cowardice, few legacies are built on caution in the face of adversity. Those concerned with honor in any way at all can't get enough of the legacy building. It's one thing that drives my personal approaches from time to time, though there's few things about myself which I hate that much. I guess that's a mindset you generally develop.

Captive to the Power of the Mind - For the New World
FOR the peacemaker, only in death be there peace. The world
can make like a nightmare as we grow to experience it. We think back to when we
were ignorant, fish swimming in a pond who could not comprehend wet or dry.
Ignorance is bliss. If our fingers stuck from the heat, we had ample
imagination to curve a situation to our liking. The world was new and ready for
exploration, not an abstract tug of war with the Demiurge. There's a world
somewhere we simply dream of. Perhaps be it for hours or days, or even a
minute, however the thought crosses our mind much as the existential calamity
of life and death. Perhaps if the choice were even to present itself, we would
choose innocence and futility over misery and responsibility.
To these thoughts I answer that we should account for the
totality of our situation. We sit down and make varying assessments, dependent
often on our emotions at a given time. With banal and unpleasant premises come
similar conclusions. We have a predisposition towards reductionism. To have
such doubts come upon us, we must see a bit of the world as it is. At least in
the sense of what ails us most, we meet with a dire and painful fate. But at
the same time, it is a gift to have the culture and the freedom necessary to
appropriate a model to the world in front of us. When the world was seemingly
new and ready for exploration, we were only projecting our minds – as we do
best. As we forge on in our journey of exploring our world, we should remember
that any cognizable model will not oversimplify the difficulties and the
profits implicit in doing so.
While this world marked by innocence and futility likely
never existed, it surely can. We perceive what it is and we somewhat
unambiguously define the clues as to what this state entails. Recognize the
strengths experience has given us. And also recognize the matured aspects of
innocence and futility. Shine a degree of light upon all the virtues, good or
unacceptable, and they may become useful indeed in living an independent and
just life. For enlightenment is the key to goalmaking and achieving.

On the New World
Tonight I'm in a great mood
for writing. I'm in a great mood for living, too, but the time of day
for making a real difference in that respect ended a while ago. So
I'm gonna lay forth my ideology in the clearest terms possible. For
those who don't know the specifics, I call it the New World, and it's
basically a synthesis of many viewpoints which have directed me
throughout the years.
