Life Liberty and the Pursuit of whatever the fuck you want



Feb 12, 2008 - 10:12 AM PST

in the modern era everything that people want is material...nobody wants the old fashioned life anymore...people just want more money and more stuff and they want it as fast as possible...i am no different...i dont like working...but its what we do to survive...not everyone can be rich and famous...and yet everyone stives to be...i for one do not want to be famous...fame is highly overrated...famous people do not have "the life"...actually they dont have any life...i hear more and more about famous persons going into rehab and what not...and why we ask...why if someone has so much money and is known by so many people would they bother doing drugs and having their face all over the news in a way that is entirely negative...i mean they know that no matter what they do...good or bad...they will be displayed for it and put on some sort of pedistal...o he/she is such a good role model...or...o he/she is so bad for being a famous person...im not denying the fact that i want to be rich...i mean we all do...there would be nothing better than to have enough money to do whatever i wanted whenever i wanted...however even if i do not become rich...then i will be content as long as i have my friends and my family and enough money to raise a family of my own...and as long as i am able to keep writing...no matter how much money i have i will never stop writing...its my outlet...and it is what makes me happy so i say to all you good people out there...dont strive to be rich...dont strive to be famous...just do what you want to do...whatever that may be...and the rest will fall perfectly into place...as long as you are happy with what you are doing...then the rest of your life will in turn be happy...im not saying that you wont have bad days...everybody has bad days...but altogether if you are happy with what you do and with who you are then the rest of your life will be equally happy

thank you
Andy Land

The title of this blog is perfect. Too many people feel they have to become something that their parents, their peers, or society would approve of -- there are just so many people and powers within our culture that try to shape people's choices with their ideas on ethics and etiquette. But really, it's about knowing yourself well enough to find what you truly like to do, and then to do it. And if you're lucky to find someone to join you on that journey, then all the better.
