Philosophy - November 2007

Almost Gone

I reached into my breast shaking with fear
pulled my heart out
holding it in my trembling hands
I was so amazed to see how little I had left
There was just a tiny bit of flesh pulsing there
Tears started to flow down my face so slowly
One teardrop fell upon my heart, sparkled and shimmered
and slowly sank into what was left of my heart.
Years of such terrible pain and loss had caused my heart
to almost disappear.
With hands shaking violently with grief I placed what was
left of my heart back into me.
Clasping my hands I went down upon my knees,
looking up I prayed to God
"Please let me keep this small part of me
my heart is almost gone,
keep me safe from letting anyone steal what is left of me"

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable.
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table.

David Hume could out-consume
Schopenhauer and Hegel,
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel.

There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist.
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.

John Stuart Mill, of his own free will,
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill.
Plato, they say, could stick it away--
Half a crate of whiskey every day.

Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle.
Hobbes was fond of his dram,
And René Descartes was a drunken fart.
'I drink, therefore I am.'

Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed,
A lovely little thinker,
But a bugger when he's pissed.

I'm not talking about a text book answer. I want to know what you think a sin is and where do you draw your lines?

I don't believe we are ever going to stop killing, and every year there seem to be countless numbers of wars being started. We only care for your own kind, I mean neither human race nor people from our own land...but only those who are connected by blood.... We exploit the earth and take everything...but ever the ones to give.... The basic law of life in this planet for so long has been "The organisms adapt to its surroundings" but we have changed that "We change the surroundings so that it would adapt to use..", we also plan to do that to other planets in the near future..
Anyway,
Nature also could be a part of this genocide, as it creates thousands of new viruses every day trying to hack into the human immune system...
The more you look around, the more you know that this place isn't for us.....
So......how long do we have??

How do you give up the path that you are on and find another one more in tune to the present situation?

Would you continue doing things for people when no one has ever expressed their appreciation for your kindness?

Do you need to feel appreciated?

Care to share?
