we must embrace nature and life not worry about all the bullshit going on

what bullshit?

paranoid he's referring to you?

but i do agree with the concept that nature should definitly take a higher priority, rather than world issues that i'm realizing i really have no control over, funny, in this land where every person is supposed to have a voice, so many are being taken away.

When it all does crash into the chaos that i feel on the horizon...it will be in nature's arms we should return to...i've been extremely worried about these last few months,(watching movies about the rise of the anticrhist and the rapture don't help any)and complicate that by having two beautiful girls...but this weekend i woke up to the birds singing, the moon just setting as a glorious sunrise of purple and pink streaked the sky...and that's when i've come to the same conclusion you have...

I'm going to worry about the small things, not being late for work, my daughter's being happy, enjoying spring, preparing to be the most beautiful bridesmaid...if the war happens...it happens, if the world falls apart, it's for the best in my opinion, what this world has declined into these days is heart breaking...like all great cultures, we're destroying ourselves...turning away from what has given us life, seeking to destroy her...

It's time to end so it can be reborn...i'm tired of worrying about it anymore?

*Hugs a tree while people are being killed in a war too far away for him to care about*

at least you have a tree you can do something about...They can be good conversationalists if you listen

many times i wish we could all just die tommorrow so that the earth can be rid of us, a disease.

we piss and shit in the same place we sleep in and then blame others for it . thats humanity's weakness, not wanting to do anything about problems just pointing the finger at someone weaker then us.

Well, I have no control over who lives or dies in the War, I don teven agree with it, but I hope they all will come back alive, even though I know they wont.
But I do control me, so I try to look after myself and my family by being the best person I can be, to the world around me, and to them.
And should anyone come against me or mine, then I will protect them.

How can we embrace nature? Does embracing nature actually take us away from all the bull shitting in the world. Nothing take us away from anything that brings us humans down.

To let you know i don't have a problem with what your talking about here.

i'm not sayin to go and hug a tree , i'm talkin about just leting our hate go for each other .

although i know that man will never accomplish this it's still a nice dream.

Shit is part of nature and I do not relish the idea of embracing it.

We'll have a sermon and a wonderful recital
But before we go on there's something I must mention
An important message I must bring to your attention
I was in meditation and prayer last night
I was awakened by a shining bright light
Overhead a glorious spirit, he gave me a message and you all need to hear it
"Send me your money," that's what he said
He said to "Send me your money"
Now if you can only send a dollar or two
There ain't a hell of a lot I can promise to you
But if you wants to see heaven's door
Make out a check for five hundreds or more
"Send me your money", do you hear what I said?
"Send me your money"Now let's have some silence, for all you sinners. Now take them on home Brother Clark, send me your money
Here comes another con hiding behind a collar
His only God is the almighty dollar
He ain't no prophet, he ain't no healer
He's just a two bit goddamn money stealer
Send me your money
Send it, you got to send it
Send me your money
You hear what I'm saying?
You got to send it, send it
Send me your money. Now how much you give is your own choice
But to me it is the difference between a Porsche and a Rolls Royce
I want you to make it hurt when you dig into your pocket
Cause it makes me feel so good to watch my profits rocket Send me your money
Now dig in deep, dig real deep into your pocket
I want you to make it hurt!
We'll take cash, we'll take checks
We'll take credit cards, we'll take jewelry
We'll take your momma's dentures if they got gold in them
So whose gonna be the new king of the fakers
Whose gonna take the place of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker?
See my momma, she didn't raise no fool
Cause you can't put a price on a miricle
Amen

Ok, I don't quite see what a Suicidal Tendencies song has to do with this thread, but I like your taste...

As far as "letting go of the bullshit", that's a nice little glossed-over way of saying you'd rather not deal with the rough issues that fill life. We're a disease? Sure, in some instances it could seem that way. Actually, we're a species that has no natural checks and balances against it any more, and we've yet to come to the conclusion that this is going to be a big problem that will affect everyone in the near future.

Let go of the hate? Why? Hate causes war. War causes death. Death means less of us remaining to "infest" the planet. I'd figure all that bullshit should make you happy.

nothing would please me more than to see us all dead (including myself) and my hate for humanity isn't released to them it is released through my music and racing .

Self-hate? Well, there's an attitude that'll help make the world a better place...

hate solves nothing, it just brings more negativity to an already negative world, instead of talking about all the misery and why you hate humanity, take efforts to make it better, start small...start with yourself...once you have a positive view, than you can see beyond the horrible things and find the little lights in life that make the world a wonderous place...

i know how daunting it can get, overwhelming when all you see spread around is hate, anger, and more violence...but there's a lot that's not like that...watch children play in a park, go fishing, climb a mountain...pick flowers, clean up litter in your neighborhood, eat dessert first...only people can make the world a better place, but you have to be a better person.

this can help...

Am I the only person who is scared by things like this? It seems like they're all "Love and joy and happiness!" when there's no point to being that way. Why waste time embracing it? It's life, it's nature, get over it. Nature itself is being brutalized by Humans, so how can we really embrace it? Even if we're nice(recycle and all that), we're still incapable of embracing it since we're too insensitive to reality. As for life, we kill things all the time...how can we embrace it?

depends on why you're killing...what is wrong with the world today is that there is no balance between man and nature, man has taken this world as his, and destroys anything that disagrees, including nature herself...few have respect for themselves, so how can they respect anything else?

Killing for survival is acceptable, it's the cycle of the thing, but people dont' kill for survival anymore....it's gone beyond preventing starvation and moved into greed and sport...

nature is easy to embrace, but a person has to embrace themselves as a natural beign first...accept their animalistic past and realize that without nature, nothing living can survive for long...slowly people are realizing this, and hopefully those who are rediscovering their place in the cycle of life will pass it onto others, especially the upcoming generations, it's too late for us to do anything other than prepare the next generation to do what we realized needed to be done too late...

there's hope, and as long as there's hope there will be love, laughter and all that joyous stuff in life...people just can't lose hope.

just because we have the power dosen't mean we need to use it is what your sayin right .
