I believe the children are our future. Teach them well and and let them lead the way.
Just kidding.
No, seriously--I've decided to attempt a somewhat positive post. I know I've been seemingly negative lately, maybe even a bit morose. I'm really not that way all the time. When I'm out and about having fun, obviously, I don't feel the need to publish my feelings on the internet in hopes of being saved.
I had a sort of epiphany tonight, through the help of a dear friend's words and half of my father's Xanax:
Life is an experiment. No, I'm not spouting religiously. I mean, it's our own, individual laboratory project. We honestly have the potential to make whatever we want out of what we've been given. I don't believe there is a final product that some supreme being has designed for us to create. There is no plan, no path, no destiny. It's just us and time. Sure, we may be limited when it comes to our tools, genetics, and basic skills. But apart from that, anything is possible.
Let's just hope I'm still a proponent of this idea in the morning.
"Death without the possibility of changing the world is the same as a life that never was." -- Douglas Coupland, Eleanor Rigby (Great book. Read it.)
