I was thinking....

Everyday we get up, go to work/school, come home eat, do household chores, go to sleep, and start again the next day. This scheduled life is killing me. EVERY DAYS THE SAME!!!!!!!

.... And we live for the weekend/vactions from work, so we can have days were there is no schedual. So my question is ,why.
..............................WHY DO WE LIVE THIS WAY?!!!!!!!!!!
..............................Why do we have to work?Why do we have to go to school? To get money? Why do we charge each other money for things? If it feels right not to have a scheduled life, why do we put our selves into one? Why do we force others into one?



















I am truely sorry that my rambilings waisted your time.

  • ahhh ive thought this many a time. some days you just think 'what the hell am i doing with my life' when it seems everything is the same. the thing is, the world we live in now adays forces us to have an education (which is good actually) and then get a job to get an income....we are not as self sufficaint as we could be...everyting is done for us and we just buy it all up. its madness really. but i guess even those who are totally self sufficient still have a schedualed life, they have to go out and find what food they are gonna eat.....pfft i dunno.

    i probably should have kept my thoughts in my head, i dunno if that made any sence.

  • It made sence.....but i refuse to live a schedualed life. The life of a wondering musiction is the life for me. But what i dont get is why is forced "education" a good thing? Forced anything is a bad thing!! Most of what school teaches is useless, meaningless, garbage. We should be able to choose what we want to learn!






    " We dont need no education....
    we dont need mass control"


    Thats what school is! Just how some countrys dont have any education for there citizens, to contol them, America uses it's "education" to control us. To make sure we all become good little corporite robots when we turn 18. I dunno'.....................is it this way in England bambi?
  • i say education is good because we NEED it in this world and especially in our countries to be able to have a comfortable life. this links in with the whole self sufficient thing too. id say by the sounds of things you've said our education system is not as bad as yours. mine certainly isnt anyway. there is an element of the school trying to get us to do good so THEY look good though. i think its a shame that at a young age you have to have your mind pretty much made up about what you want 'to be' when you leave school. id like to be a "wondering musicion" like you, its my dream, but i dont think i could do it :(

    im really sorry your school sucks, it sounds like hell there....i wouldnt be able to cope i dont think. run away to england ;) lol.
  • Hi Seven.
    I agree with everything you said in both threads.
    I had to get fired from my job to finally get that something greater than us wants what we want and to stay doing something you hate on a daily basis is just gonna get you more misery later. If you don't quit it, some power is gonna kick your ass out so it can give what you really want.

    as far as school, it doesn't have to be like that. Sounds like you are in the wrong school at least for your type of genius!

    my little rebel you.
  • My bigest fear is that one day i will look back on my life and be filled with regret. I know i am meant to be a musiction, it's the only thing that makes me truely happy. I will acsept being a homeless, starving, nobody before i give up on my music.
  • then if you are that passionate, then it will be....no question.


    dont get me wrong and think that i think the education system is all peachy, dont even think i enjoy it-i dont. the only thing i enjoy there is art classes and my friends....but i meant it is nessisary to have a decent education to be able to get somewhere in life these days....just the way things have turned out :)
  • No give up ever.

    It may put us in institutions, we may be called crazy, we may be laughed at who cares.

    Do you know how many times i have moved since my divorce in 1995, about 13 or so. I can't even count now. I've been homeless; not on the street per se... My 4 year old son and I were kicked out of my mothers house after she begged me to move in. All because I was talking on a phone to a man that wanted to ask me out on a date. She called me a bitch whore and said I didn't take care of my son. He seemed happy enough, sitting there on the couch watching toons, chewing on his binky..... WTF. It still hurts to think about that, but my mom has the problem so well, to think about it, since I am her daughter, well,,,, I guess you could say I harbor the problem in my DNA too. Are we destined to become our parents. Bitter and unsupporting. Why does my mother always have to be right?

    Life is fucked seven no doubt, but you know that being who you are is what you were meant to do. Whatever that is I don't know.

    Cause Im sitting around the friggen house, alone, not wanting to do shit. Clean, write, nothing. Sometimes it feels really good to do nothing. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes being in the rat race was easier because I didn't have to think of things that scare me because I was too busy earning a living. Now I can think and think and listen and listen to something telling me something. I may not have money in the bank now, but maybe my connection with SOMETHING is healthier now. I am enlightened one minute then the counter balance of doubt tries to come to a boil. It is a war I find inside every second. Why I get up and do again everyday? Love I guess.

    Now, after getting hospitalized and kicked down by another job, I sit on this computer and talk to unreal people. I can do whatever I want now although there is still this hole. It has been there since I was a child. Maybe we have the same hole seven.

    Why are we here and more specifically why is it that all i have in my life to keep me going on a daily basis is: my child, a burning desire for someone who talks to me in my sleep, this crazy thing called a message pit and the radio.

    I still keep saying, this is the strangest trip I have ever been on. And mostly it is DELIGHTFUL!! Whats around the corner next? is an excited stance we must take to make it through my man.
  • That story made me sad.... :(




    I wish I could have your optomism. My life has defenently been a wild ride, but i think it's better described as roller coster that collaped and killed a few people, and now I am hanging on to whats left of it.
  • i hate having a job, for jesus christ sake god bless you bitch anyway i was talkin to this wonderful girl this evening fuck you and she was sweet areal swet heart until she left me in the middle of the con what the fuck let me do my work woman so anyway im riddin high and then boom shes gone so im here wonderin what the fuck again

    Everybody has obligations, society needs people that take responsibilities so it can work, mankind has evolved and it is in evolution, our civilization is doing better than 500 years ago, anyone can see that, but we can do better, responsability is all it needs so it keeps growing stronger. Of course your life doesn't need to have a boring job, try to be like PJ they a very interesting life and they help out the world and set examples as ED did writing Bushleaguer, be cool man relax make every moment count, take a break at work and go listen to music.

    peace

    It was a dream, not a nightmare. A beautiful dream I could never imagined in a thousand nods. I saw this girl next to me, she wasn't beautiful until she smiled. And I felt that smile come at me in heat waves following. Soaking through my body and out my finger tips in shafts of color. And I knew somewhere in the world, somewhere, that there was love for me.

  • Dont get me wrong, it's not that I dont want to better our society. I just dont believe mankind is realy happy the way we're liveing
  • no, i dont think 'mankind' in general are happy with the way we're living....


    i personally think its all to do with greed, greed is pretty much the reason for every muck up in this world if you think about it. maybe you wont agree, just what ive been thinking about lately.

  • routine was the theme, he'd wake up and...wash and pour himself into uniform
    something he hadn't imagined being...
    as the merging traffic passed, he found himself staring, down, at his own hands..
    not remembering the change, not recalling the plan, was it...?
    he was okay, but wondering about wandering
    was it age? by consequence? or was he moved by sleight of hand?
    mondays were made to fall, lost on a road he knew by heart
    it was like a book he read in his sleep, endlessly...
    sometimes he hid in his radio, watching others pull into their homes
    while he was drifting...
    on a line, of his own, off the line, on the side
    by the by, as dirt turned to sand, as if moved by sleight of hand
    when he reached the shore of his clip-on world
    he resurfaced to the norm
    organized his few things, his coat and keys...
    any new realizations would have to wait til he had more time, more time...
    time to dream, to himself
    he waves goodbye, to himself
    i'll see you on the other side...
    another man...moved by sleight of hand...
