What We Are Is What We Are
Happy
Dissatisfied
Too intelligent
Too lazy
Too old
Switched on
Pleading for help
Egotistical
Aware of you and your scam
Deserving of all we desire
Sick of this rung
Baffled
Hopeful
Full of despair
Affluent
Lucky
Missing a crucial ingredient
and when you think about it
Pointless

thanks...*grabs razor, swallows sleeping pills, skulls vodka*
sorry mate. it ain't all that bad.
that post came off the back of a continuing conversation i have with a friend. and you know, what are blogs for if not to post crap like that?
very true...I like to think my additions to the blogging landscape have proven this also
It's kinda like Haiku, I like it.
Another very intelligent comment from me.
It's amazing that so much meaning and so much meaninglessness can coexist so neatly in the one bundle of human experience. In fact, they depend on each other.
I think of our creative output as humanity's fruit. Showy, delicious, wonderful, voluminous, ephemeral, infinite in variety, and simultaneously infused with meaning and lacking purpose.
I wouldn't be without any of our human experience, painful, joyous, meaningful or banal. I have spent long hours pondering the purpose of it... I tend to agree there is none. But that oughtn't stop us from swimming all through it and drinking it all in.
I'm not sure what the alternative is anyway.
I just love the word Banal. Not an intelligent comment I know but I thought I'd share it. My excuse is its 2:30 in the morning.
