here are the words

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.
You taught me all I know and I never look back.
It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack.

You took a current ribbon from out of the sky,
and taught me how to use it as the years went by.
To tie up all your problems and make them believe.
And then to sell them to the people in the street.

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.
You taught me all I know and I never look back.
It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack.

I saw right thru the way you started teaching me now.
So someday soon you could get to use me somehow.
I thank you very much you know you've been very kind.
But, I'd better move along before you change my mind

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack
No hard feelings if I never come back
It's a very strange world and I thank you, Master Jack

You taught me all the things the way you'd like 'em to be.
But I'd like to see if better people agree.
It's all very interesting the way you disguise.
But I'd like to see the world thru my own eyes.

It's a strange, strange world we live in, Master Jack.
No hard feelings if I never come back
You're a very strange man and I thank you, Master Jack.
You're a very strange man and I thank you, Master Jack.
You're a very strange man, aren't you, Master Jack

Why do you think that withdrawing or withholding life-sustaining treatment (life support) is unethical?

"If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set. then there'd be peace."
i think that that is thrue....if everyone wanted peace we would have it but obviously thats far from the case.
i find it so baffaling that in the year 2007 we call ourselves civilized human beings and the only way we can solve major issues is to kill people. yes war is neccesary because it is all we know but that doesnt make it right. yes im a liberal and yes im what you would call a hippie, im also a 16 year old girl so feel free to judge me but know matter what political party you support, war=death and i think we need to find a way to change our ways of problem solving. if we can go to the moon we can sure as hell find peace on earth. anyone agree?

Excuse me but take a look around, cave man. The electricity that powers every single device in your life. The refrigerator that keeps your food fresh. The genetic tests to ensure you it is the best food. The car you drive. The computer you are typing on. The freaking man who walked…. ON THE MOON!!! Now, sure, science does make mistakes but isn’t a little ignorant to belittle science? You do know that if it weren’t for science you’d be living in a cave right now bashing your dinner with a club right?

The phrase "life isn't fair" as far as I'm concerned is the biggest cop-out ever uttered by a human being. It's resignation to injustice and inequity. It's surrender to evil and maliciousness. I have a big problem with this sentiment.

The phrase is true. Life sucks. I'm not gonna whitewash it and pollyanna everything. It frankly SUCKS. And I'm not talking about just me, it's for everyone. If I'm given better opportunity and chance in life than someone else, that is wrong. Why be born into a world where you always lose? What's the point of life if you can never truly attain what's good in life? No one has a satisfactory answer for this.

Because it's wrong that one has a better opportunity in life than another based on The Creator's rigged scale of attributes, I always want to help make things better for others who didn't get a proper chance.
Life may not be fair but I'll be d@mned if I follow that. A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.

"Life isn't fair" Cop-out or not?

Do you think that it is ethical to either withhold or withdraw life-sustaining treatment (life support)?

Why or why not?

The simplest question: what is life?

Interpret it as you wish.

"My work always tried to unite the truth with the beautiful, but when I had to choose one or the other, I usually chose the beautiful." Hermann Weyl

My question is which one would you choose, beauty or truth?

I want to increase my knowledge, education, intelligence and imagination. I want to do this on my own, if possible. There are two problems with this. First, I have trouble reading because I can't concentrate on what I read. Second, I don't even know where to begin. If you can identify with what I am feeling then please leave some advice. Thanks in advance.

Find hobbies and routines to get your mind off of the day to day simplicities that can make life feel meaningless.
Have healthy and fulfilling practices that keep you strong and intelligent.
Reinforce or gratify yourself with positive self talks and pampering.
Be empathetic yet selfish, agressive and passive at times.
Never talk down to yourself, be the best u can at all times.
Never take things too seriously, never take others emotions too lightly.
Push your way through ill feelings and replace them with happy feelings.
What's missing?

Philosophy only generates more questions and has never solved anything.A question only brings another question and then you go deeper and that brings you to the beginning again...In my opinion philosophy can't be used at this current era because of our "limit" of knowledge,I'm saying the mind is infinite but we just can't fill it to the rim,you know?We can only reach a limit and until we develop bigger brains we will just ask more questions,some questions aren't even questions because they have no answer although it is a question,like a scissor without the handling part,it'll be just two razors although it's still a scissor because you can still cut.Same with questions,it's missing the answer part although it's still a "scissor".So,what's the point of philosophy?Ask more and leave work uncompleted?

A man is asked to either leave a room or stay in it. He feels that he is free to leave the room but decides to stay. What he does not know however, is that the door is locked and in which case..he was not free. So..if you feel free, are you free?

A guy I once knew who had a thing for me repeated this line, and said it was written by a Scottish Poet.

But he's long gone now, and I cannot find the poem anywhere.
