why would you even care, if you didn't have any passion? is that why you keep on? cause you don't even care? are we supposed to love you for that? here?

you have such love for whoever you're addressing, and you dont even know it forthright in your mind. how tragic, i wish it was me.

Maybe
i'll bow and smell
e scent of soil.

maybe i'll remove my glasses
and walk out of tis wooden hut
looking for grass,seeking exploration..

somehow dust
got into my eyes and
touched me to cry..to cry over
e dying of e light..

i see then,farmers
in penury unite like family..

they share wheats and rice
they share tears and joy..

oh,good god!Theres no more
exploration possible to find
for man have deserted their souls
and wait for judgement day to arrive.

I'll take a little
of e soil;and i hope no one will
accuse me of stealing from their land
nor anyone stop me from tasting e soil.

I must at least
know how my final home feel like.

me too commited much crime.

The reason for me living is just that I am living. I happen to be here and I'm not sure how I give my life reason beyond that because one random day out of my control I won't happen to be here anymore.

When I was younger, I probably used to think I was here to celebrate the universe, to change things for the better, to give and receive love etc. Then I got older, wasn't that perfect, wasn't that good, fucked some things up, got very confused (and still am) and recognized the truth that I'm not very important.

Maybe the reason is just to be. I still feel like trying to aspire to my childhood notion of the reason for living, or else I could descend either into hedonism or depression and I'm not totally inclined to either. I like above all to be fully conscious most of the time...

I live to learn things, grow my spirit, take as much knowledge as I can when I change dimensions, as well as giving/accepting love.

Life is not about ourselves alone, it's about ourselves as part of the Everything.

Once you're alive, you might as well make the most of the time you have.  It's shorter than we think.
