’Imagine’--What Now?

Current mood: touched

’Imagine’--What Now?
Current mood: touched
Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes

Well I assume you all know the song Imagine.
If you dont , i suggest you go read a book or something instead of this.
Anyway,I think that its obvious that Lennon (bless his soul) wrote that and honestly felt that way.
You just dont hear such an inspiring song like that come from the heart of the singer
and not just some guy in the back. I dont even think that he was able to live long enough to realize what an effect he made on many peoples lives,including mine.

Well now that Perfect Circle has covered it (a version that needed to be made) i think that all the bases  have been covered on 'Imagine' as far as the physical musical values are concerned.

So,almost a half a century later,what do we do if we want the idea of peace and true happiness to go on? Well, in short terms, we follow the words of his legendary song and we allow the world to 'live as one' if you will.

 Well long story short, I  believe it is truly in the youths hands to 'imagine no possesions' because,after all, its 'easy if we try'.

RAISE YOUR FISTS! KNOCK DOWN THE SYSTEM!

RAISE YOUR FISTS! KNOCK DOWN THE SYSTEM!
Current mood: empowered

heres a few things to get my point across:


Ive been walking through your streets
Where all your moneys earned
Where all your building's crying,
And clueless neckties working,
Revolving fake lawn houses,
Housing all your fears,
Desensitized by TV,
Overbearing advertising,
God of consumerism,
And all your crooked pictures,
Looking good, mirrorism,
Filtering information,
For the public eye,
Designed for profiteering,
Your neighbor, what a guy.



 BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born.




BOOM, BOOM,BOOM, BOOM Modern globalization,
Coupled with condemnations,
Unnecessary death,
Matador corporations,
Puppeting your frustrations,
With the blinded flag,
Manufacturing consent
Is the name of the game,
The bottom line is money,
Nobody gives a fuck f***.




4000 hungry children die per hour,
from starvation,
while billions spent on bombs,
create death showers.



 BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,
Every time you drop the bomb,
You kill the god your child has born.




BOOM, BOOM,BOOM, BOOM
BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM/BOOM Why,why,why,why must we kill,kill,kill,kill, our own,own,own,own kind?? BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM,

--Boom-System of a Down

I know that there are no limits to which the powers of privilege will not go to keep the workers in slavery.

- Mother Jones

'All public resources go to the rich. The poor, if they can survive in the labor market, fine. Otherwise, they die. That's economics in a nutshell.



'
- Noam Chomsky

'Now, if it is deemed necessary that I should forfeit my life for the furtherance of the ends of justice, and mingle my blood further with the blood of my children and with the blood of millions in this slave country whose rights are disregarded by wicked, cruel, and unjust enactments, I say, let it be done.



'
-John Brown

'We are called to speak for the weak, for the voiceless, for the victims of our nation and for those it calls enemy, for no document from human hands can make these humans any less our brothers and sisters.

"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won.



 There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible but in the end, they always fall -- think of it, ALWAYS!"

HERES WHAT I SAY:

I think that unfortunately hasty actions have no choice but to be more powerful than loving words
considering the circumstances

please go to axisofjustice. org
and help make a change

this is true:
americans spend about 10% of their income on food
africans,for example:a whopping 80%

youre telling me we have ways to play guitar hero against peoplein other countries
but we cant give our fellow humans who are simple victims of circumstance
a little of our surplus?!


oh yeah and I love how surviving is a game in this country!
dude,people do that every day!
WE ARE PLAYING THIS 'GAME' IN PLACES THAT PEOPLE ALREADY LIVE! lol

"oh,I dont have my cell phone! This is hard........"

,or if you want to find out some cool sites just message me :)

RELIGION.......

Current mood: confused

RELIGION.......
Current mood: confused

Ok some of you may know that Im not the most religious person.  In fact Im almost an atheist.  Anyway, I just wanted to share my views on religion.  Well, frankly I think that religions (all of them really except budism as far as I can tell) have become just a status quo type of deal. For example, 'believe in what I do or youll die a horrible death'.  Now isnt that why there is so much conflict in the middle east (and worldwide when you think of it)!  Oh Im so confused.........

I believe that the gods (whoever he/she/they may be) intended for us all to just be generally good people (not perfect or living by any ridiculous standards). If we are truely these gods' children, we should all deserve to be taken under his wing as a 'father/mother' regardless of our human-like mistakes, our concientious (yes I cant spell) choices,and yes our vices, virtues or whatever is in our minds at birth!


PS:IF ANY RELIGIOUS OR NON-RELIGIOUS PEOPLE (OF ANY GROUP) HAVE A 'BONE TO PICK' WITH ME OR REALLY ANYTHING ELSE YOU HAVE TO SAY (NO CONVERTING PLEASE) THAN JUST MESSAGE ME.
Oh and of course: have a wonderful day!

am I right or just a different kind of ignorant?

Current mood: awake

am I right or just a different kind of ignorant?
Current mood: awake

am I right or just a different kind of ignorant?
you be the judge:

I dont mean to come of as a wannabe messiah or something
but unfortunately (at least where I live)
I believe the ignorant mentality is taking over
its as if the people (especially the youth;dont get me started there)
are allowing a sheet to be pulled over their eyes while they live in their own little world,free of worry
I cant even begin to tell you about my friends and other peers and their blatant ignorance
I dont mean to ramble but,

when we were discussing atheism,religion,non-believers,etc.
my friend said something that deeply discouraged me in countless ways:
'I KNOW god exists! people who dont believe in that are just WRONG...'

needless to say its such a sad sight to see;
the youths,who are meant to bring a 'new-world order' in my opinion, are too busy worrying about the newest brand of expensive clothing or the newest rap song (both are guaranteed to get old so why not fight for the future?!)

anyway ill keep it at that

politics........eww


heres the first one
there are many
if you want to hear more just ask and ill be happy to post some more

in regards to taxation:
I think that when people pay their taxes there should be some sort of checklist where you choose what you want YOUR money to go to
for example:
emergency services
education
weapons,even!

after all it is our money right...

now your probably asking:
what if everyone [or a large majority] chooses the same thing?
well all I have to say to that is
oh well it will just be another hole weve dug ourselves into...

I know it sounds risky but
I think that unfortunately hasty actions have no choice but to be more powerful than loving words
considering the circumstances

anyway...what do you think?
