we are all going to die.
just a heads up.
just a heads up.
the six word memoir
there is a (not so) current writing trend that is really pretty profound. short but profound. what it is is that authors, writers, and such are writing their whole memoir in just 6 words. some creative ones that i have found are... Nobody cared, then they did. Why? - Chuck Klosterman 70 years, few tears, hairy ears. - Bill Querengesser "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn" -Ernest Hemingway recently people have been putting pictures to their 6 word memoir and they have been incredible. here are some on this NPR LINK . so i think it would be great if each one of us did one about ourself. perhaps post a photoshopped picture and 6 words, or just your 6 word memoir all on its own. either way, i think it would be so interesting to see each others lives in a simple 6 words. HERE IS MINE: .............. LEFT BEHIND A LEFT BEHIND CHILD .................... alternates for mine: always looking, never finding. feeling found. lonely child found fame, lost self. -stephen so SO many good ones...

life is death and death is life. we should just live our lives while we can, before it is too late, because it truly is inevitable. i just personally try to fly into the future on inspiration's wings.
if you ever have some free time from being a musician/philosopher you should give it a skim :)
personally, i'll stick to only having to die once.
Thanks for the thought.

Those of us in the prime of our youth find it hard to believe that we are destructable.
Service instead of selfishness.
to live life
and not let it just past by
dont let depression get in the way of dreams
lucky
So it might seem like an odd post on your 10,951st day on earth, but thirty is a solemn place to be. I agree with the earlier comment,I miss your older posts. Don't grow up too much! Neverland is an alright place to be! Don't be in a hurry to burn it down.

Death and Birth alike exist in cyclical chaos - every moment yields both, neither keep time
It is not Death that we all fear- it is leaving this overwhelmingly incredible place and those we cherish. Fear of no longer being able to have what makes us alive!
Far too strong is our ability to wield emotion - so powerful that right in the middle of all our worry and fear - the biggest point is overlooked.
Don't fear what is not in our control, instead spend each moment of being alive with the knowledge that every new day you are given another chance to be here. Do as much as you can to make it good for yourself and the life forms you share the planet with.
Ultimately death will come - This is only the point of change, forever we all will play a role in life...whatever your belief
We're so fixated on having the perfect bodies and prolonging our lives...
but what happens when you don't wake up in the morning? Or you don't ever come home from the midnight drive?
What are people going to say about us after we're gone?
What are we leaving behind, guys?
there doesn't seem to be a lot these days, what with the disillusionment of the material world.
i just think its incredibly SCARY because it can strike without warning .. says the fifteen year old kid .
some days, i think about those people who were too afraid to live .. and then sometimes i think about those people that never lived enough .
i just love the truth of that statement . i really do . WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE .
PS . you should watch this movie called mr. nobody . its a french foreign film, i believe . its really beautiful . its about the choices we make in life, and its about living your life to the fullest .
