| what is life? im sure you can read books upon books describing the meaning of it, whether it is love, art, adventure, or change. maybe its one of those things. maybe its passion, or inspiration, or nature. i dont know. but put your life in perspective with the rest of the universe. on such a large timeline, with billions of people, and billions of years before you , its like you dont even exist. but there is still all this pressure from the world to do great, to be great. that if you are not famous, you are not worth remembering. what kind of life can we offer future generations if this is the way things are now? it seems to me, that all those legends before us; galileo, aristotle, newton, and hell man, even elvis. they are legends in themselves because they did what no other person in their generation did. they broke the mold in a certain area. something that has never been tried before. hence what bothers me. we've tried everything. we've done peace, war, experimentation, medication, television, bombs, cancer, rocketships. the future is either bleak and barren, hardly supporting life, or it is technologically advanced. it cannot be both. |
