A Look Beneath The Skull

So my girlfriend is absolutely amazing. I think the world should know :-).

FORGIVE ME TUMBLR, I HAVE ISOLATED YOU.

I moved out. No computer. Now I have a fancy shmancy smart phone. Might mean battery consumption, BUT TUMBLR NEEDS BE BACK IN MY LIFE.

Actually, I’ve been isolated from everything. Friends and family. Focused on other things. Well, lemme try to make my effort for you, dear Tumblr. I need to be back in my community.

You are not your job.

You are not how much money you have in the bank. You are not your brand of clothes. You are not what Ralph Lauren wants you to be. You are not your possessions. You are not what cool multi-function phone you have.

Beneath all of this lies what matters. In a materialistic, over-‘stuff’ed world full of lies and gain for power lies the only thing that is important. The targets, raised into submission by a blanket of supporting, blind generations. Beneath all of this ‘stuff’ lies the only thing that matters:

Us.

Buried from birth and dwelling beneath the light, we loose ourselves in it all. Maximalism flows through our veins unrealizing. Good hearts forced to coincide with the machines and corporate giant men. We have innocently had our eyes gouged out.

The time for awareness should never have come, so it is obvious it is past due. I personally do not post this to wish anarchy or extreme acts, but a call for intellect and to open their eyes.

Beneath the dying phone batteries, the withering designer khaki jeans. Beneath blown head gaskets, collapsing building floors, leaky roofs, virus-infected computers, power outtages and shattering china lies us living. The ownership of things is not wicked, but the lack of intellect and ethical prioritary positioning is. We are owned by inanament objects. Our dependence on it would scare us if these phones and cars could think and react like we do. Our eyes are closed to how many arms of plastic, semi-conductors, wire, metal, switches, strings and glass grab hold to us for we hold onto it first. The primary actions follows the secondary reaction. Combined to form a binding contract signed by ignorance, kept alive by ignorance.

You $162 phone gets run over. You collection of rare 1950’s porcelain dolls gets destroyed in a fire. Your television is malfunctioning. Your style is old. Your iPad is outdated. Your car breaks down.

You are still alive.

You are still in the same health or lack thereof.

You still have your motor skills.

You can still think.

You. Are still alive.

Reactions are exaggerated. In result, the reality of the situation is distorted in the vital attatchment you have to something that doesn’t live. Something that was meant to last.

Granted, we don’t last forever either. Nothing lasts forever, but certain things matter:

Food

Water

Shelter

A god if you believe it

Your friends

Your family

And love

Nothing else matters. You loose your job, you get a new one. You get evicted, you live somewhere else. All things around us are fine to allow to give us comfort, security, a sense of accomplishment and happiness, but should not own us. Without these things we must be happy. Be it everything or one large thing. Do not attatch yourself to what is inanament or you will never be happy in life.

Live for why you feel you exist. Love. Experience. Question everything to FIND truth and law. All individuals law is independent. Submission to our government law is because we cannot change a law in our generation. If you feel called to startan act or dedicate your life to the progression of change, then so be it. But that is not everyone. For those of you who are not these people, do what IS right. Right by feeling and a knowledge of all sides even some you disagree with.

Your stuff owns you. Open your eyes. Coincide, but do not give inanamacy life. To give something that doesn’t exist life is primitave and wasting the spark in the universe that is your life.

We are people, not our things. Coincide with the machine, but scarcely regard its death. For the only thing to care about is your family and friends. What is flesh is what matters and should grieve when expired for the flesh beholds love: invisible but magnificent. Love, an invisible energy, cycled through life, not things. What you rely on and live with no matter what form and not your smart phones, your cars and your music collections. If all the music burned to ash, we would still sing and keep the songs in our heads. Whatever falls we rebuild in generations to come. Whatever ideal manifested to many people will be destroyed and recycled by a differing generation.

Love is what you should own. And live with, and for, your friends and family. What breathes is what matters. What sits on a shelf, vibrates, refrigerates food or transports us doesn’t mean as much.

We act differently. We get lost with closed eyes.

Don’t care if your phone gets run over and your contacts unable to retrieve. Don’t care if your transmission gears break. Don’t care if your tv is stolen. Don’t care if your power goes out.

Stop caring so much. This energy diverts from personal interaction and attention. You have only so much energy so either more is put into your Gingerbread Lattes and iPad 3.5SG 5G HD LED 3D 2 and taken from what matters or the right amount of concern with the every day things is barely there.

If you lost every electronic tomorrow, don’t cry.

Cry when your mother dies or your friend gets shot.

Let go of your need for material possessions to live and attain happiness.

Live your life free and with your eyes open.

Be happy.

Stop putting so much energy into caring too much.

Laugh
