Philosophical jargon
Today was one of the reasons why I hate this place. Yesterday it was freezing. Today it was warm. What is wrong with this country? Having seasons are bad enough without there being fluctuations in daily temperature. Am I irritated? Yes I believe so.
Spent the day listening to Christian rock. One song in particular got me thinking. "What Have We Become" by dc talk. Very angry song, with shouting and heavy metal and stuff, but the message is highly thought-provoking.
"What have we become?
A self-indulgent people.
Oh, what have we become?
Tell me where are the righteous ones.
What have we become?
In a world degenerating.
What have we become?
Speak your mind.
Look out for yourself.
The answer to it all is a life of wealth.
Grab all you can 'cause you just live once.
You got the right to do whatever you want.
What about love?
What about God?
What about holiness?
What about mercy, compassion and selflessness?
You know its true.
He was there for me and you.
Does it matter what you do?
Reminds me of a parable I heard a while ago.
A man who lives on his own is like a porcupine.
He has spines to protect himself from others who might hurt him.
But these soines also keep his friends from getting close to him.
What if all men had these spines?
How would life go on?
