I have been thinking for a while now, about how I want to live my life. I of course, do not want to give in to the system really, and I want to live my own, free, spiritual life. I want to make my own decisions regardless of other influences, and do what I love. Sometimes I think that I either want to just completely leave everything, and go into the wilderness. Other times I think I should just stay living "here" but not blindly following anyone or anything. I wont get a job just because it pays well- I will get a job because it is what I love. I dont need a big house, crazy cars, etc. In this lifestyle, I would perhaps live in a cabin, with electricity, a stereo, stove, microwave, and computer...but I would also sleep outside whenever possible, be outside as much as possible...The computer would be something I went on to go to a site like this, and communicate with poeple from around the world. But I would go outside A TON. And I would live somehwat near to a city, because I love poeple, and visiting them isnt bad, and meeting new people is one of the greatest feelings in my opinion. So yeah, I think I would go with option two, as I wouldnt be recieving much , if any, uncomfortable social pressure, and I could live what I feel to be a fulfilling life... do you KIND OF get the overall jist of this second lifestyle? Any opnions?
Reality is that you need a bank roll to live the impossible dream...so you must coexist in society until you have the means to make a dream come true. You have a dream of living on the left of society do not be fooled into thinking that you may not have to work on the right to make the money to support your left thinking......but do so with an inner grin that says each time you cash your cheque that you are going to make a difference by applying that money or fund to what you believe in. It is not cashing out......it is reality. We need money to exist and we need money to support what we believe in as no matter how many bodies appear for a cause it is the the lobbyist who are paid who will garner support that is middle rather than left or right for any cause. Never give up any dream....but instead temper it with reality and find a way to do it.....even if it means working in the system to screw it in the end.
I came to realize this a while ago... one of my main reasons of my wanting to make a career out of music is to just make money... I don't wanna be forced to work a job or two in 10 years or so, just to survive and provide for my family... I wanna be able to be free. You need money to be free.. ya won't make it any other way
Yeah, I have thought about the whole money thing too. I guess if I decide to live the lifestyle I want, I would have to live somewhat in society...if I wanted to be without it I would have to literally live fully in the wilderness. I just hope that in the process of making money, I dont become corrupt...I dont see that as happening to me, since I have such morals and strong feelings on what I believe. The main thing that worries is me is how my father turned out- I dont know ALOT about what he was like as a teen, but I know that he was into the hippy idea atleast somewhat. He went from being hip like that to working for NBC, that huge corporation, and works like 18 hour days. And on weekends hes on his laptop. He is INSANE, hes gone mad. OH well, I think that as long asI keep on living with what I believe, then I will be fine... I know that I want a job where I ENJOY it, and get money as well, NOT get lots of money, and hate it. Cheers dylan
