Day 1
May 16, 2009Today I am really going to start working on myself. I think I am going to become an active listener. To be honest, I am afraid of doing introspection but my band did have an album called introspection. Also, when I look back at my life I realize that I have been given alot of tools for what I am trying to do, or become. The one banana monkey, old dude on the beach, the one, conversations with god, love, abortion, Ida mahone, etc… Its all been there because I am very sure that my family has attempted to become more but life got the best of them. So I am in a real good position to “make it,” whatever that means. First, I need to really listen to the words that people speak. I need to learn to love words and how they are used. I believe it is possible for someone to understand global capitalism through culture because we are so much integrated within it.
As for other things, I will put them on hold for now and I will really work at getting to know people on different levels and not just the level I want them to be on. Its a scary endeavor but i dont want to be a punk. I hope this works.
I will post about it regularly because i need articulate my experiences
