I love nature. To me, nature is a church. All living things are sacred. Everything. Every living thing. Smallest to the largest. The cancer cells, the spirogyras... It's all there for a reason, possibly because if it wasn't there, something worse would happen. What if they found out that cancer could be cured but that if you got this other thing that not only was it not curable, but it was contagious. Okay... that's what cancer did in the balance of nature. Now, doesn't that fit in with a lot of the things that nature does? Protecting itself? So if you get back far enough and look at any part of nature, there's a reason for it. So living within the balance of nature... like eating organic foods and doing all the right things, you've got more of a chance of actually maiking it last in the long run. It doesn't necessarily make me angry that man has polluted this planet. What makes me angry is people planning to do things that will pollute the planet. That makes me angry. What has already gone down is a product of many things we have no control of... I look at the planet and all you see is proof that we need to change. Space travel should be viewed as a certain sense of organicness in my mind. At least I think so. I don't know how we're going to do it, but we're going to be able to travel all over the fuckin' universe. Without using fuel. Perpetual motion. Get in a vehicle and just go to another planet. It's like farming... Civilizations... dropping seeds, races, blending, a species getting stronger like plants do. I view it all as the same thing. Who knows how big the universe is. How can there be an inside or an outside or a boundary to this, I mean, this whole planet could be a fucking seed. If I knew I was going all the way, I'd like to go into outer space some time in the future when I'm older. I'm not just going to the moon. If I have a family then, I'd like to take my family... I think I could talk them into it. And you know, we might not come back. It might be nice out there. In twenty years rock and roll might be the biggest communication device in the universe. Who knows... invaded by people from another planet and all they want is the musicians. As far as reincarnation goes, I don't think that I need to be here in a previous life... suppose there's just many demensions to the same life. Things are just going on all at once, everywhere, all at the same time. All different times, all different places, everything's happening at once instead of having time go by. Look out the window, the first thing that comes to my mind is the way this place looked a hundred years ago. Then I see "the city." I can look out there and I know there's an airport just a few miles away, but I always, in the back of my mind, see what it looked like before. I try to figure out what was here before all of this. I don't know why. It's just the way I am.
I am madly in love with the Planet also. There is nothing I love more than Mother Earth and what she provides to us. Environmental activism is my life dream and it will come true. I want to do nothing more than fight for the survival of our Planet. We fucked it up, and its only going to get worth if we don't do anything about it. A religion involving the praising of Mother Earth is the only religion I would consider following. Have you read 'Last Hours of the Ancient Sunlight" by Thom Hartmann? Everyone needs to read that book, and after I finish it I'm sending it to Staples...if ya want I could send it to you too, afterwards.
i found it... it reminded me cause the church. haha. I laid me down upon a bank, Where Love lay sleeping; I heard among the rushes dank Weeping, weeping. Then I went to the heath and the wild, To the thistles and thorns of the waste; And they told me how they were beguiled, Driven out, and compelled to the chaste. I went to the Garden of Love, And saw what I never had seen; A Chapel was built in the midst, Where I used to play on the green. And the gates of this Chapel were shut, And 'Thou shalt not' writ over the door; So I turned to the Garden of Love That so many sweet flowers bore. And I saw it was filled with graves, And tombstones where flowers should be; And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds, And binding with briars my joys and desires.
Rock and roll is already the biggest communication device in the universe and most people dont even know it. The music of the 60's and 70's as it did when it was born in these times is still influencing generations beyond that....without paige and plant....hendrix...janis........neil........Mr. Dylan....just to name a few...these people changed the life of people our ages 20 years ago....and they are still changing the lives of people 20 to 30 years after the fact......Rock and roll is a universal language......think about it......i bet you can remember the first time you heard Zeppelin or hendrix or any rock hero that you have posters of in your room......that one moment changed your whole perception of life...you saw it in plain view...your ideals...morals...everything was upsidedown...you were probally asking yourself "Wow, how can i make music like that?"......this is why rock and roll will never die.........it has and gives you the power to think for yourself..........sorry for the rant but you have good points Orsino2....and a great outlook......keep it up man..........peace and vision
I like your thoughts on nature just like i like that Les Paul on your wall Orsino2. I always wonder what places looked like before our modern world took over.......so beautifuly colorful and abstract and not all cold and linear. Its rather deppressing to think about actually =(
