I can’t be the only one who is feeling this urge to scream. To really yell “BULLSHIT!” right at the face of the countless, COUNTLESS people who try to talk bullshit all goddamn day! Not just the bullshit we see on TV or hear in the News, but the backbone that holds all of the bullshit together… all the idiots who question nothing, who argue common sense with nonsense, always so keen to make you change your ways but they will not even consider questioning theirs. AHHHH why can I just do it? Why can’t I just say “YOU ARE FULL OF SHIT, AND YOU KNOW IT YOU FUCKING BASTARD!” AHHH!
What do you think would happen if you call everyone you know on their bullshit? Would it be a better world or would you just be too lonely? There should be a national holiday, just one day every 4 years at least, when you are allowed to be completely and brutally honest with anyone that crosses your path. Not in a hurtful way, just a very honest day, where no bullshit is told, when we actually give a fuck about being a decent human being. Huh? Anyone out there?
Fuck… there is a loophole to this though… if you are going to be completely honest for one day, it includes calling yourself on your own bullshit too. Your idiotic excuses to everything that keeps you from moving forward or being who you should be. I’d still do it, it could fucking work.
A sad thing indeed. (found on reddit)

tobewanted asked: hey can you please check out our new blog that we are trying to share with everyone ! we want everyone to help contribute and get this blog out for those who wants to let out their feelings or talk about what ever they want. THank youu soo much :)
Well, just in case, I am not thinking about dying. I just think about death in a very scientific, spiritual, “animalistic” way. I do not want to die, but I have freed myself from the fear of death by accepting it as a natural thing all living things must do at some point. So, if the blog is about suicidal people, I’m not into that very much. If anything, let me know what it is about ok. Hope you are well.
…walking through a path in the woods. Seems like a tornado had cleared a road for me, leaving only a few hundred trunks to jump over and slide under, just so I could get to the shore in the other side… driving back to where I was… I accelerate, I can’t control it, hitting the breaks doesn’t work, the car takes off like a plane… everything moves in slow motion, but my awareness remains in the “present”. With open eyes, images flash, things I did that day, my walk through the woods, beautifully mundane things… then I tumble. The angles are all chaotic, and overwhelmed by this stillness in chaos I realize “I’m dying”. I say it very softly in my head, like a whisper, but it is deep, I feel my voice inside of me… “I’m dying”… then darkness, then light… like the last rays of sunset in the ocean. I fly over the it, the yellow, and orange… the waves… they take me back. Then I wake up.
Problem solvers. Setting up to film a music video for the song “Prytania”. (Taken with instagram)

Nice one Jesus. (found on reddit)

tumblrbot asked: WHAT IS YOUR EARLIEST HUMAN MEMORY?
Drinking strawberry milk. It was pink. I was crying for it. It tasted pink. It smelled like pink should smell.
“The world is an interesting place; don’t you think?” I say that to my students all the time when I find little ways to divert during a lesson. Stuff like when they ask me what the word for ‘language’ is in Spanish. I tell them “‘lenguaje, idioma, or lengua’. The word ‘language’ [by the way] in many languages has some connection to their word for ‘tongue’ because without our tongues language would be a very difficult task for our species. Just imagine that for a second,” I tell them, “try to speak without using your tongue.” Then I show them by actually making tongueless sounds like a moron and tell them to join me. After a few seconds of communal nonsensical babbling and realization I say… “Ain’t that interesting? We are very interesting beings kids, we are part of a very interesting world; don’t you think?” On we continue with the lesson knowing that they actually got the fact that without tongue there is no language, that the word for language has to do with tongue AND I put the idea in their heads that we are part of something very interesting (which was the whole point for diverting).
I love language. I love understanding it. I love the fact that humans have such a variety of different languages, and that is my job, to teach ONE of those. I don’t know if I will be able to contribute much to our evolution or the progress of the world. I’m not going to create advanced technology, find the cure for cancer or win a Nobel Prize (maybe who knows), but I like understanding language and like understanding the world with language as my decoder. And with it I like creating new thoughts. Thoughts that explain my awareness and role in the universe, and so far I’ve been thinking a lot about life, death, and the connection we have with everything. (And I mean EVERYTHING)
Humans often “think” that we are the most evolved beings due to our awareness of ourselves and this gives us a sense of superiority and entitlement over other species. We see all forms of other life as “unconscious” because they cannot communicate or behave like we do. To mention one thing, we think a tree cannot realize it “exists”; a tree cannot choose. Yet trees are capable of existing almost everywhere, even places were humans do not thrive. But they are living beings and all life evolved from unicellular organisms, in other words, all life is somehow related and connected.
So because we have an awareness of ourselves, and believe other forms of life don’t, we are somehow at the top… But it can get lonely at the top, particularly if you choose to separate yourself from everything. What if, (oh how I love my what if’s) everything that exists is just as aware of itself as we are of ourselves? What if on top of that, they were aware of the role they play in the intricate balance of life as a whole, and we are not? It would make a lot of sense and it feels like a big reason we fail as a species, has to do with how little we understand ourselves as animals by distancing ourselves from our “actual” nature.
Everything that exists, exists only in a web of infinite interconnection, despite and because of the random. That is life. Random. Yet it is all connected. We are connected to everything, from the smallest fraction of your smallest atom, to the planet, to the galaxy to the universe itself and whatever bowl that is contained in (and what/whoever is holding it). It is a oneness that frees me from the fear of death. Death is just one of the great things we have in common with all life. Regardless of what form of life we host, everything dies. Death is the sacrifice all life makes in the path of its evolution.
What happens after death is uncertain, but if everything has to go through death, then as one we shall die, and as one we shall find out. This is why I can’t believe in any mythical load from religion. Religion explains life and how to live by a promise of what (hopefully) happens after death. You are good, you go to heaven. You are bad, you go to hell. Actually thinking about it is not about being good, it is about accepting some dude in your heart, whatever that is, THEN you may have a chance to go to heaven if you are good.
Goodness is possible without the promise of reward after death. Great evil is also possible even with the fear of eternal punishment. How can believing in heaven or hell, be called spirituality? How can people be afraid that some guy in a book will get angry if you “do” some “bad” things? How can this be more satisfying an explanation of life and death than the simple logic of being one?
So there is that thought, not quite the cure for cancer, not quite a rocket ship but a simple idea to think about. If you read all this, whether you agree with me or not, thanks for reading and consider yourself incepted.
