adulthood Q The state of matrimony does not overlap the state of adulthood. I do not think they even share a border. 000711 ... birdmad now that i have several years of it behind me i realize what an entirely overrated state of being is 000711 ... abulia "What was to be the value of the long looked forward to, Long hoped for calm, the autumnal serenity And the wisdom of age? Had they deceived us Or deceived themselves, the quiet-voiced elders, Bequeathing us merely a receipt for deceit? The serenity only a deliberate hebetude, The wisdom only the knowledge of dead secrets Useless in the darkness into which they peered Or from which they turned their eyes. There is, it seems to us, At best, only a limited value In the knowledge derived from experience." T.S. Eliot, "East Coker" 000712 ... kim sucks 000712 ... The Schleiffen Man you won't catch me playing in this field... it's like dancing in a minefield... i'll just take myself through other pastures until i get where i need to be 000712 ... Sintina Sucks. Childhood wasn't much better because I was naive. But at least Childhood was fun. Then again, adulthood is fun in some ways too. Sex is good. Alcohol is good. But those things are also bad. Nothing was bad before Adulthood. It was good even to be naive, because at the time I didn't know I was naive and I didn't care. God, to be a child again. 010205 ... tourist When I was a child I thought that the Adults who ran the World were somehow Different, more wise ect. Once I got old enough to be called one, and got to interact with them I came to realise that these are the same selfish kids that had always been around me. It was no longer a mystery why we had War, Poverty and Injustice. It's because the Adults are really just a bunch of greedy self-centered children at heart, and Mom and Dad have left the room! Nothing Ever Changes! 010205 ... shai hulud the hat they made me wear when i grew up 010205 ... Tank i guess i may technically be in the midst of this. however, if this is the same as being grown up (i.e. you have stopped growing), i renounce it just as forcefully. i never choose to stop growing... 010205 ... me well i guess this is growing up 010206 ... Miner “They say childhood is over the moment you know you’re gonna die.” :-The Crow 010512 ... freakizh you can't be amused any further, so you need to pay attention to the kamasutra. 010722 ... Casey I think the moment you reach adulthood is when you no longer have an imagination. If I'm right, then I' never growing up 010722 ... somebody Now you can do whatever you want. Except for this. And except for this. And except for this. And except for this. And... 071109 ... ZERO what is the meaning of being an Adult ? Is it getting over the wonder of life and accepting that this planet is a competative and very hard place to live in ? "Think yourself lucky" everyone is effected by peoples attitudes whether you have food on your plate or not, i would not have any will to live if there was no joy. You can feel helpless in many ways, mentally or physically, yes it does matter which country and family your are born into but it does not nessesarily mean that the lucky ones are any happier simply because of peoples attitude towards me, my and i. Survival for food and water (a physical need) and survival from manic depression and stress (a mental disturbance), i can only comment on one side of this story but i can tell you its not much fun feeling like you've got nothing to live for. 071109 ... Kinectu I cannot deny that adulthood has served me, too, with a giant pile of "you've got nothing to live for," in spite of what everyone else tells me. I sent the order back and am waiting to see what the waiter brings me next, if anything. Maybe he'll bring me everything, but if he brings me nothing, I'll march myself back to that pantry, and... ...and... ... 071109 ... Doar just wondering grab a can of ham? . 071109 ... :p yeah! if you don't get fed proper then ask the nurse women to take you to the big fridge where you can choose what sandwich you want. Then you can pretend to be head nurse and read out everyones star signs. so! they gave me fake pills in the beginning anyway. 071110 ... Kinectu OH YEAH GUYS! OH YEAH! 071110 ... old and stale made me realize that the world is colder thank i had expected. fuck. now i try to bring the dream back. but the more things i find out, the less everything makes sense. 071111 ... kuffsleeve nothing ever made sense, dieing for your country, all respect to the people that do or have, it's just, i don't think your should have to die unless you have no choice, ..... what more is there to say on this subject ? Its the way its always been throughout history since the beginning of time, humans fight and kill for all kinds of reasons and it is SAD. We create our own fucking religions, it's a shame people don't just fucking wake up and pinch themselves isn't it. Hate breeds hate, love breeds love, which one is tried and tested ? 071111 ... flowerock what life becomes when life gets in the way of progress, when persisting becomes an obligation, when stress prevents fun, when pain is allowed to blind instead of teach. 140712 what's it to you? who go blather from
