Random Collection of Thoughts
Exactly as the title states, because after all, what are we other than that?
1 If we treat others differently based on race -- in a good or in a bad fashion -- that is discrimination. Is this racism? Is racism inherently bad? Racism hurts everyone -- the shunned and the preferred.
2 Comparisons => Feelings of superiority and inferiority => Hate and Hurt
3 If we want to give people choice, but then want to forcibly change that choice, that is anti-democratic.
4 Life is like seeing photographs -- you see one moment, one snapshot in many people's lives. And while even the very best photos may have a thousand things to say, no one photograph says it all.
5 We are intuitively singular and individually-minded. Even when following the masses, we are striving to be unique, to be one.
6 I love beauty. In all its forms. Beauty as an art, beauty in physical appearance, beauty in a human being. The problem is I want to consume beauty. I want to eat it up, make it mine.
7 The seven deadly sins: pride, sloth, lust, gluttony, greed, envy, anger. In order of prevalence in Kenny.
8 When I list examples, I can't help but list in threes.
9 I have some sort of fascination, no, infatuation, with villains who become good. Especially in my dreams. All my romantic dreams center around this idea. It seems to me a reflection of my urge to try and change everyone, bending them to my will.
10 What bothers me about the Chinese Zodiac is that the time period for one sign -- one year -- is much too long for all of us born within these approximate 365 days to have such similar personalities that they may be ennumerated. And yet, there is one trait that I read on a placemat that has always stuck with me, that is, that the rat seldom makes lasting friendships. And whether by a self-fulfilling prophecy, or by the alignment of stars every twelve years (one for each sign), this prediction as it applies to me is unfalteringly true.
11 How should we measure friendship? In eProps or comments or birthday wishes? Funny how this time of year (April 25th), always makes me more narcissistic than I usually am.
