    i just skimmed over to see what it was about, but it was not what ITs about. before you change the world, you gosta change yerself man... it is an internal thing, its all up here. once you become aware of your surroundings on a more personal intimate level(where you live what you do who you know etc etc)... then you can become aware on the bigger scheme of things(whats going on in the world etc etc)

    well im pretty sure ive done that alot. i know who I am and where I want to go. and now, I wanna stop amerika from taking away all our freedoms and Amerika's goal to rule the world. Also, marijuana needs to be legalized. After those are taken care of, I'll settle down a little, find myself again, then on to some more problems that need to be dealt with.:)

    Fractual_, you did a great job of explaining what I am trying to do. I want to pass this peace on to others. And, I hope you don't see this as blasphemy, but who's Abbie Hoffman?

    gasp! blasphemy!!
    he was the greatest political and social activist ever, in my opinion. he spoke out for and against so many different topics. and he wrote the best book Ive ever read. here are some links and some info about him:
    http://tenant.net/Community/steal/steal.html
    http://www.law.umkc.edu/faculty/projects/ftrials/Chicago7/Account.html
    http://free.freespeech.org/kokopeli/abbie.html

    the 1st link is his greatest book, 2nd is something he is very "famous" for, and the 3rd is all about Abbie. and if you were being sarcastic with your question, then fuck you. in a nice way of course:)


    edit: i had known and been very intrigued by abbie since i was really young, but i didnt know his name until not too long ago lol

    Awwww, I love you too, pookie.

    First things first, you're an idiot. Have you not read ANYTHING that's been written? People do want that lifestyle, dumbass. They're too lazy to do anything about it. (Aside from 11.) You have just, again, wasted your time.

    okay, the people HERE(i thought we were talking about changing THE world, yer right i did not read all the posts) want that lifestyle... so you are saying we do not have it, do you mean in order to live the lifestyle we must be an activist or something? i will maintain MY lifestyle throughout any world changes, and that is just accepting things the way they are, rolling with it, and taking things easy. these are some of the things I want to spread right now... if i am going to spread any ideas or ways with dealing with things or things of that sort.

    oh and soul rebel, what i was tryin to say if you can't really rebel until you have fully developed your conciousness, if you can dig where thats at.

    Yes, dumbass, you have to be active to change the world. You can't sit around and complain, nothing happens. YOU can maintain your lifestyle. I couldn't care less. YOU'RE NOT SPREADING ANYTHING. Everyone is taking it easy, taking it as it comes. Stop trying to sound smart, it doesn't work well for you.

    i am active, i interact with people all the time, that is the only way to change them really, to get them informed, and teach them to learn. you can lead a horse to water, but cant make em drink, thats fer sure. you really have to show a person how to learn and be aware for themselves. i don't sit around and complain(although u do have a point, ppl who bitch about wats goin on in the world and dont do anything are not very productive if thats what their really passionate about), did you read my post? i like to accept things as they are, roll with it, and take it Ezzz. oh, a lot of people do NOT take it easy man, and some people never will. but i guess that depends on how you define taking it ez :rolleyes:
    oh, and yoda say, do or do not, there is no try.

    edit*oh and jeebus, so much for peaceful revolution eh? lets not get too into this online argument...

    "so moon flower...what have you been doing to get active lately?"

    She never said she has done anything, she is just telling people not to tell others to do shit and claim they are changing the world by doing nothing.
