evolution 2

i believe the greatest potential in a person is to change.

i am not who i was when i was 17. nearly 5 years have gone by and i have no regrets in my past that haunt me, no future that i know of. all i have is now. another 5 years will pass and i will look back to say that i am not who i was when i was 22.

when did this start? us getting old? remember us hanging out at fast food joints, looking for something to do, something to say, something to laugh about? we thought we were invincible, immortal. i thought that once you hit a certain age you would grow up. like pushing a button. or winning a prize, receiving a present. if you make it to 30 you get a wife and 2 kids, congratulations. you made it. you lived your life, now help your kids make it to 30, and repeat.

what happened to our dreams? surely they were just dreams. but we had them, we had hopes for something different. isn't there more to life than eating? than drinking? than wearing fine clothes? than making a million, shiny stones, sleeping with strange women.

don't we have something to say? or have we grown up just to be fed? adults that do what rich people say. buying and doing what the media tells us to do so they can make money off their lies and so we can live in ignorance.

isn't it all chaos? isn't it all purposeful? you must choose one or the other. either the world is mad going in circles or the world is faithful and going towards the end.

it's nothing or something. what have you got to lose.
