I really like when I see grass growing up through a crack in the sidewalk, it fills me with a sense of hope and justice. i believe the answers are really just questions inproperly punctuated. Stuff I think is important: or at the very least very interesting... the Family & Our Garden Sonoma County Famers Markets ZeitGeist - The Movie Food Not Lawns Food Not Bombs Carbon Conscious Consumer 100 Mile Diet Free Mind Media Convention On Biological Diversity Chartres CathedralI am like a total deconstructionist random freak. I believe any attempt towards order or control is a fundamental step in the wrong direction. it is the labels that make things what they are and limit them to nothing more than such.I really love music. Music is way fucking cool. It can, in my opinion, transcend verbal communication. here is what i mean. Someone can very insightfully and eloquently articulate thier thoughts and speak or write them to someone who just so happens to speak another language, and the recipient will stand there blank faced, not understanding a word. But a talented musician could write a song that well articulates how he may have felt at the time, and anybody who listens to it, will know exactly how he felt. Likewise a song composed very well can actually change the listeners state of mind i.e. affecting the alpha waves of the brain and so on and so forth..... yeah i love music.
