it's 11:11, now you want to talk

so yes. it's 1111.

today. i was thinking.
what is life really all about?
back in the day, it was all about wars, slavery, life or death, hierarchy, ruling dictators who were born one after another, over and over. cyclical. similiar. simple. and the same. the same ruin. the same OMG moments. the same dramaaaaa. over and over. til the end of the era.

now, what's life about?
um. let's consult my girl, gossip girl courtesy of the cw. um, like, life is like all about designer clothes, and drinking, partying, and getting into college so we can drink and party without parents! duhhhhh!

um. right....
middle class suburbia life?
life is money. money is life. the two are interchangeable. because if you have money you actually have a life. that matters. and if you have no moeny, you die! yay money!

my life?

um. actually. as superficial as it sounds ,the money thing is the truth. but there's something more. i liveeee to get money, go to college, learn to help people with incurable diseases, but ultimately i'm another link in the chain of life. a good link, but just another person. human life is tricky. it's wasted, but not really.

i was reading deb's blog the other day... (http://supahhhflyyx.livejournal.com)
and what she says about war today... ABSOLUTELY true.
not like life doesn't matter, but to add to what she said, it's cyclical. we're all gonna die.
we're all gonna decompose (unless we're cremated.) but the point is, we'll all be little bits someday. one with the earth. so how does it really matter that 4000 people died in the span of 5 years in WAR? war kills. that's kind of the point.

i mean, the crusades, the plague... the world's gone true worse crises. i think that our generation of like the last 200 years likes to bring on the drama of years past. make up for lost time. treat everything like it's the end. which is probably why women and men are so broken up after "breaking up" with their gfs and bfs. our closest genetic link, the chimp, doesn't really hold on to relationships like we do. so we should kinda follow monkey see, monkey do right about now. be playas. it's good for us.
it's good to not CARE about things so much for a change. it probably would make things more happy in the long run anyway.
