The Beginning

Well, I have to admit I'm not really sure what to write in this Blog now that I have started it !

I am tempted to take a walk on the more philosophical side of life and to talk to anyone who is interested about my spiritual beliefs and ethical beliefs.

I have always cherished a good philosophical debate that questions the very foundations in which modern society builds itself on.

I find myself drawn to quoting the words to a song from the movie " Into The Wild " which is the true life story of a young man by the name of Christopher McCandless who dared to question everything in his life including his own very existence.


Society

Oh it's a mystery to me.
We have a greed, with which we have agreed ...
and you think you have to want more than you need ...
until you have it all, you won't be free.
.
Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.
.
When you want more than you have, you think you need ...
and when you think more then you want, your thoughts begin to bleed.
I think I need to find a bigger place ...
cause when you have more than you think, you need more space.
.
Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.
Society, crazy indeed ...
I hope you're not lonely without me.
.
There are those thinkin more is less, less is more,
but if less is more, how you keepin score ?
It means for every point you make, your level drops.
Kinda like you're startin from the top ...
and you can't do that.
.

Society, you're a crazy breed.
I hope you're not lonely, without me.
Society, crazy indeed ...
I hope you're not lonely, without me
Society, have mercy on me.
I hope you're not angry, if I disagree.
Society, crazy indeed.
I hope you're not lonely ....
Without Me.
