Yeah, I'm afraid of death too. It's not a big deal, but it's not like I would end my life to find out what happens. Since I don't know what happens, I am afraid of it. It's not a bad thing to be afraid. In fact, it keeps you alert, and thus helps to keep you alive longer.

I had a dream about... life after death. It was strange.

For some reason, me and my family died. Don't ask, that's the way it started. I have no clue why, or when. So, it starts off with me under water, cold water. My lungs are burning for air as I push for the top. I break the surface, gasping for air. Once ashore, I meet my family there. The ground is covered with snow, and there is a sort of building, well, a roof without walls. It's made out of wood. Anyway, we move on, and there are more people around. No one's happy, but no one's really sad either. I don't remember much of the whole dream, but the gist of it was that we were in some sort of purgatory, or temporary keeping place while you were going to heaven or hell. There was a God too, but he wasn't of any specific religion. It was more like he loved everyone, and what religion you were from didn't matter. I remember sitting at a campfire there too. And there was this constant nagging feeling to move on, as in, go on to either a kind of hell, or heaven. My brother wanted to leave, and move on, and I remember dragging him back, for fear of losing him. It was weird.

Yeah, don't ask. I don't have mental problems.

Damnit, after reading Obbi's first post now I feel depressed. I know he was talking about "objectivity" but it was worded in such a dismal manner. Anyway, the world is a horrible place. There is no "paradise." Every part of the world has some major ordeal or unending turmoil it has to face in some way. Families are breaking apart, friendships are dissovling, people are fighting unjust causes, and 3 out of 4 newlyweds are destined to divorce. It's an unhappy world. Moving, or running away, in no way helps anything or anybody.

Society and all culture around the world is being "pushed aside" by technological advancements, war, and a human race whos only inhabitions are to survive by any means. Survival of the fittest? No, no. Survival of the desperate. Humans are a flawed species, period. In times of desperation, they look out only for themselves; all others are forgotten. We fight eachother over events long past, and with all of our pride and power we have only one predestined fate: death.

The human race is, in essence, totally expandable. And whoever pushes the button to end all ends, will just be the proving factor. Do we really live our lives like this? I hate to think so but a lot of people around the world are proving my theory right, even as I am writing this. It's a shame.

Hope. Love. Peace.

Wise men think themselves fools, yet fools think themselves wise.

Remember the saying "The grass looks greener on the other side of the fence" you might go to another country to find it worse off than where you are now.

There are no irrelevant quotes of historical figures here. Neither will you find any links, chain posts, memes, clan advertisements, self-promotions, or the tiniest of ASCII pictures.

So go away.

I cannot be sure but I think I understand. I am usually not myself on these forums. In my head there are constantly sentiments like Obbi's, but it does not translate well into type. Here goes anyway:

I have two years of high school left. After this, my life has no direction, no goal, and no ambition. From every side, come battering shouts that I should go to college, so I can "be successful." That I should spend my life pursuing money. A higher-paying job. A nicer car. A bigger house. A new computer. Is this the only measure of success? Or of happiness? I am tired of it. I am tired of my life. I am only 16; I am not old enough yet to be weary. There is something wrong, but I don't know where. I want to leave this country, but not for politics, or for any dislike of American culture, or even of my desert town. I must have change. My mind is drying, shriveling into nothing with only homework and video games to exert it's energies upon. I think that the day after graduation, I will simply get up, take a bus to Tucson International, and buy the cheapest ticket out, without any care for where it takes me, so long as it is far from here. I feel as though I have something I must accomplish before my short life runs out, and I do not know what it is. The only thing I am sure of is that it is not here.

HAHAHAH I live in florida, it's actually pretty nice exept its too hot or it's raining but besides that it's ok... Oh you were talking about the Hurricanes they aren't so bad if your not completely retarted9meaning that you go stand outside and wait for a car to flip over on top of you)... but the only reason I don't like Florida is because it's too hot

Oh and I really don't understand why most of you feel that America is so screwed up, I think it's pretty nice. I couldn't care less if the Europeans are mad about the Iraq war, it was bad inteligence (every inteligence agency in the world thought Iraq had WMD's) it was not our imperialistic aims (if we had any). America is quite content to make money selling stuff to the world and getting richer (isn't capitalization great). Well if anyone could enlighten me on why America is such a terrible country (no flame wars please), go ahead and express your views I won't get angry, I probably won't agree with you, but I won't get angry.

I know I'm not supposed to be all religous and all but my life has direction, becuase I know the Truth, and Truth is a person.

Wow. This thread has changed a lot since I saw it last.

I wasn't really talking about E.L.E. (extintion level event) I was talking about world wide anarchy and chaos. Every man for himself. No laws. No goverment. That's scary. Anarchist are crazy. Stab you steal your Nikes and burn your body crazy.

And I was drunk when I wrote this. A lot of it is true, but very overly emotional.

Ha, Florida is not hot, Yuma Arizona is Hot. This summer I don't think it came below 90 degrees at night, damn desert. And anyone that says it's a dry heat and it's not as bad, are full of it. I'd rather be in 90 dgree Montgomery AL with 99% humidity than 120 degree Yuma Arizona with 18% humidity.

Y'all are f'kin retartded. Hey dickman army, you're posting to my thread about how ya think I need help...

I had a dream that there were 4 naked hot ladies and I had sex with all of them, at the same time, and one of them was your mom, the other was your sister, the third was your grandma, and the fourth was you.


You know, you hurt me. I mean, you called me dickman army. Extremely painful, not to mention clever. Your dream could have been true, except, first of all, you were complimenting me and my family. Second of all, I've long since beaten my family to death with the combined forces of baseball bats and random sharp objects around the house.

Oh, and just to clarify, having weird dreams has absolutely nothing to do with your mental state. It is simply your brain going over information and experiences that recently happened, and it's just that your brain puts them together a little weird. You, on the other hand, do have mental problems.
