"I had a dream once, in which I was walking around outside in a very thick fog. Everything was gray; you almost couldn't see anything at all. There were other people walking around in the fog, too. I happened to encounter a guy standing by a stepladder.
"Hey," he says, "It's not that deep."
"What?" I asked him.
"The fog...it's only seven feet deep. Climb the ladder, you'll see."
So I get on the stepladder and go up a few steps, and sure enough...my head popped out of the fog and I could see, all around me, a sea of fog stretching all the way to the horizon in every direction.
"Do you know what being on the ladder enabled me to see?"
"What?" she said.
"More fog than anyone else," I told her." |

appearance is very important to most people. i don't think... the reality of this struck me until today. not really no.
of course, i knew that eyes and vision are most genetically developed of human senses, thus the amount we tend to rely on it more than others. but... it really goes beyond that. i never undetstood it like this. no i didn't.
clueless. i really was. |

the leaders who institute propaganda are often influenced by it themselves you realize... just how deep these wires can run, then?
if you take the insane complexity of a single human being and you mesh it with every other human being in a particular society... there's no WAY we can understand where our influences really come from. it's so messy, so intertwined. and those leading the herd are often just as clueless as those being led |

This blog has taken a turn very much inward. It has become a place to introspect/document rather than a tool to reach out, but the challenge is to balance it. Which never happens. |

at what point does a group of people with common mentality turn into a mob with its own mentality? and if we could only reverse it, if only people could unite without the need for a common enemy and instead... unite with a common goal. why is it that with the transition into university (a concentrated area with similar age/locations = similar cultural understanding), that the smaller subcultures positioned in relation with each other, then turn into large groups fueled by one common enemy? honestly, I see little difference in the May 4th incident and what has been occurring among people around me since I got here (in terms of the above).if I can figure out the turning point in group interaction to mob mentality, I think that I can figure out how to change the process of unification among them.
but it becomes difficult, because in an area with concentrated cultural similarities, mannerisms are used to bring one group/mob together. not verbal language. and if body language is a portion of that culture, often misunderstood to cause alienation leading to the formation of mob mentality in those who DO switch from the sharing of a culture, to compromising it in order to create a mob culture (concentration of = larger mobs= university), then to what degree is verbal language misunderstood as well? And is body language learned through instinct or culture? You would first need to figure out which is more efficient, and then use it to go through the process in the first paragraph. |

Thoughts on Twilight books:
It's a twinkie. Twinkies can be a nice side to the bitter coffee of the morning, they just don't stand up to a real, giant piece of chocolate cake like Plato would goddammit. |

Maybe the mystery behind the opposite sex is cultural.
But that's probably also what makes it attractive and confusing. The excitement lies with the unknown reaction to the action, both mentally and physically, of course. |

My thoughts are flying everywhere. It's pretty exciting, but also hungry.
Lets take a nap to calm down before something stupid happens again when this happens. And something ALWAYS happens, when this happens. |

There's no sense in beating myself up over past mistakes.
But when emotions are already attached, I don't know... it's too late then. For optimal development, I should probably just accept them and the rest will come naturally. I know that. It doesn't really help. Knowing things is supposed to help, but it doesn't right now.
One day I'll look back on this and laugh at myself. Anyways. My thoughts are getting fuzzy and I need to work. |
