Complacency is no virtue

Complacency is no virtue
The world's so huge and wide
There are many things to see and know
And many to keep by your side
You may have been given it all.
That's why it sounds so unimpressive
But I promise that if you make an effort to understand
You'll be able to look at the world in a way
that will make all things passing by contain
an element of wonder which you would enjoy
Making that aspect of the world and the people thereof
happy because they find happiness in sharing their joy
and because that is wherein happiness lies.

The Three 'M's of Madness: Macro-evolution, Marriage & Mayhem

-
If necessity was the mother of invention, and mankind had to invent marriage, this invention would not need a mother because it wouldn't need to be invented - at least not the way it is now. It is the strangest thing, yet, that humanity has prided itself in, parading it around confidently, minus the clear cracks of course.  In macro-evolution, there is a well-recognised concept of animals changing their bodies over centuries and millennia to adapt to the challenges they face in their environment. Over many years, beaks get longer, scales become different, hair grows or falls, and sometimes even new parts grow - just so that they can adapt to harsh environments.  Mankind is an animal and has his fair share too. This is found in a switch hidden in all the mushy entanglements that is the brain. It developed as a result of being immersed in the culture of idealisation and idolisation of marriage. It remains switched off until the very first day of real married life post the honeym...

Are you wanted! for a crime, or because it's worth your time?

-
If there was a wanted poster out for you that aligned with your life, as it is now, would it be for something that you'd get punished for (like a crime), or something that you would be kept for (like a prize)? Would the sheriff in town seek to eliminate your threat, or would he be looking for you because he really needs your help? In a world where life is work-defined, we all have one of these wanted posters out for us. If we don't, we are in the bottom feed that nobody wants to eat out of.  It's like our "worth".  Even if we don't define ourselves externally (i.e. based on how much use we are to other people), a healthy symbiotic relationship with the world demands that we should have something good enough to offer that warrants our own wanted poster to be out by someone. We're after all people of the same Universe or sub-universe wherever we live. In a happy world, we shouldn't be aliens in our own society. Hopefully, they don't want to find us b...

The Reason Why

-
I know you love Jesus You don't give me a choice I've heard all about Him His amazing ways and the power of His voice You seem bent on talking about Him Until the end of your days But there is a slight problem With what your saying We usually do things for a reason why I can understand,if it's not all logic There's no need for you to start getting all apologetic If there's something I am not seeing (or whatever) Then it must be upto a being, much higher To open my eyes and do its job And show me that I am such as slob Dude, it's got to have a reason I can atleast buy If you can link it to my present situation You may be able justify the effort to take it to all the nations But if you throw around morality Subjective belief and comprehension of things a book says that call for fearful apprehension I have a much better reason to die So, I say with much respect, Before you put your belief to the test To those in whom it hasn't been inbred That you live by your ...
