"So what are you doing?"

::sigh::

i need to make some money... ugh... the joys of living in a society where people equate you as a person with what you do to "make a living"

You've gotta "make a living" ... funny thing is, I see a lot of working around me, but not that much living... most of the people I know are too busy working to take a breath and enjoy what's around them.

my friend from gaidai and his girlfriend visited the other day and they were just the opposite, lol. carefree to the extreme, talking about yoga, chakras, meditating instead of talking and supposedly astral traveling...

so on the one hand I have friends and family who see the world in a sort of tinted grayscale. You've gotta do __ and __ to make money, invest, get real estate, get a stable career, etc. that O'Reilly really knows what he;s talking bout! welcome to the real world.

and i have friends who see the world on a meditation-induced LSD trip. Saturated techni-color art. Colonists (and later refugees) from atlantis settled in Peru- u didn't know? world conflicts are caused by an overactive 3rd (2nd?1st?4th? cant really remember) chakra-didn't u know? be careful when astral travelling- u may lose your way back to your body... i eat organic vegetarian food, but i smoke and had carne asada last night. there is no real world.

and somewhere in the middle, trying to find a path, there's me. a humble descendant of Colombian Atlanteans and no-nonsense Illinois Irish-Germans.
