I have a cold.

rainy outside.  gloomy outside.  cold.  dark.  a perfect time to reflect.  to slow down.  to listen to music filled with heart.  splattered with soul.  a movement away from pop culture always cures the blues.  pop culture offering up nothing but noise and bright colours.  plastic people in plastic houses.  plastic faces and plastic races.  races to see who wins the pot at the end of the rainbow.  but what is the pot?  for some it is money.  but at what point does money become dull?  at what point does money become boring?  how much shit can one consume before he or she gets sick of the over consumption?  never ending elections featuring never ending lies.  never ending proposed solutions.  never ending betrayals and never ending hope.  but hope for what?  these leaders preach about the economy and what they can do to save the economy.  to build our economy.  to have less taxes and more money but it is all bluster.  how much more does one save?  how much more does one own?  how much more does one consume?  where is the humanity?  humanity more important than wealth.  I want to speak with human beings.  human beings from all over the world.  I want to hear about their upbringing.  I want to hear about their struggles.  their families.  I want to connect and get to know people better.  not facebook connect but in person and complete with language barriers.  I want to eat food from different cultures and drink and laugh with humans from different cultures.  I want to learn and grow.  I want to turn off and tune out the bullshit that our society has to offer.  a society where kim kardashian wins while many other’s are mired in poverty in inner cities.  a sick society that applauds the wrong people and demeans the right people.

human connection.

human connection.

human connection.

make that the goal.

make that the purpose.

make that the meaning of life.

love.  laugh.  play.  learn.  grow.

but most of all LOVE.

do not forget about LOVE.

do not forget about humanity.

do not forget about being a little child.  a little child who didn’t discriminate.  didn’t chase money.  chase possessions.  a child who wanted to play.  connect.  have fun.  laugh.  love.  explore.

DON’T LET THE CORPORATE WORLD WITH IT’S MANY EVILS TAKE YOU DOWN.  MAKE YOU FEEL SHIT ABOUT YOURSELF.  MIRE YOU IN DEBT.  STRUGGLE TO GET OUT OF DEBT.  CHASE THE WRONG THINGS AND DIE LONELY, UNHAPPY, AND IN DEBT.  TIRED AND BROKEN.  SAD AND LOST.  DON’T DO IT.

CONNECT.

LOVE.

PLAY.

LISTEN TO GREAT MUSIC.

DRINK GREAT WINE.

EAT GREAT FOOD.

CONVERSE.

LOVE.

LOVE.

LOVE.

BREATHE.

PLEASE DON’T BE ANOTHER PHONY.

PLEASE DON’T BE ANOTHER GREEDY PIG.

PLEASE DON’T BE DULL AND AFRAID.

BE DIFFERENT THAN THE REST.

WE HAVE TOO MUCH DULLNESS ALREADY.

raining outside.
