Whoa, so manuevering myself to post posts is kinda befuddling. One of them Hit and Miss type of dealios.. So i find that i guess for it to be free theres gonna be Ads.. *ick* oh well, we'll survive, won't we?
The internet is a funny thing, blogging like webpages and such places like friendster are struck by luck and chance. Yet they are ways of letting youself be exposed to the world. My buddy andrew in Fresno was looking for D&D stuff in fresno, and he searched for it on yahoo (back in the day when yahoo owned all) and he got my first webpage.. scary no? i suppose it's human nature to want to be heard, to be of something, to be remembered. To leave your footprint in where someone ages n ages later can open a book or a webpage and find vestiges of ideas and thoughts on a vast and open world. it is true. Open your eyes and search for it, and you will find it, and your knowledge expands. Close your eyes and live within your bubble and you'll be content too, but when you reach the wall of the bubble, that is all your gonna know. I guess everybody has their view and is trained on it. I work in a world of evil, greed, hate, ALL the 7 deadly sins, yet i see things that others who work with me don't. One of my clients saw this in me too, and stated 'you have a college degree don't you..' what that extra knowledge did to me, affects everybody.
i call it my theory of scalar fear. i've talked with many and have seen alot of different people with alot of different stories. But it comes down to many things but alot of it has to do with Fear. The world is run by it, people afraid of 'the next step', 'what can happen' or 'possible outcomes.' The Cuban Missle crisis is the main example of it. Can you image in.. Two people deciding the fate of the world, and playing a very huge chess game. Fear goes from the world scale to the neighborhood scale. Afraid of what them punks across the street are doing? What do you do? Sit around? Do a Pre-emptive strike? Get down to their level and do the same? The latter creates a 'who cares about the neighborhood, it's all about me.' attitude.. As the page says.. the world is coming to an end..
