There are 7 billion people now
Flitting about their daily lives
Working like drones for a queen
Oblivious to the world around them
Amongst the bourgeois
What is it that you alone posses
What is it that makes you stand out
What is your identity?
It’s surprising how inflexible people can be with their opinions! They may be the smartest people you know, they may be leagues ahead in many ways, but they can shock you with the nonsense they spout when their opinions are challenged.
Even if you’re infinitely confident you’re right, keep your thoughts open to contention. You may know a lot, but there will be at least a minimal chance that you may not have factored in everything.
Be smart about your opinions. Close mindedness did not help men discover fire. Open up!
This is good wine.
Helps me forget all my worries for the moment.
I’ll be reminded of them again tomorrow,
And I think they’ll be even bigger headaches than they were today.
It’s not like I can run away from them.
But this is good wine.
What is it that we’re meant to do here,
What is it that we hope to achieve?
Is this world true reality,
Or is it simply make-believe?
What is right and what is wrong,
Does it even matter?
Is there life after death
Or do we cease to exist when our body dies?
Maybe we should stop grasping at straws like idiots
And get on with our bloody work.
Days fly by.
Days become weeks.
Weeks become months.
Soon, years have gone by.
Yet the dreams you had,
Remain dreams unattained.
Every second drags on.
Minutes feel like hours.
But before you realize,
Years have gone by.
Yet the dreams you had,
Remain dreams unattained.
What is it that you desire?
What do you want to be?
You struggle against the odds, fight the darkest despair to get things.
But what do you really want?
Do you have a goal?
Are you running through the journey of life without aim?
You can be truly happy only when you know your heart’s desire. Everything else just gets old and monotonous after a while.
It’s only when you know what you’re aiming for, that you can get a lasting sense of achievement.
Try and figure that out, will you?
Don’t run away!
You can run from your friends, and your family.
You can run from the whole world, if you so wish.
But try as you may, you can’t run away from your self!
