But <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">that's</span>' because of our need for a point or progress. so far we have run around in a circle chasing progress like a tale, and cities, art and society are <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12">droplets</span> of murky water being flung from our matted and confused coats. we have created like gods, we have prolonged and we have spread, but we are no closer to knowing the reason for being on this spec of dust than when we started the argument with ourselves. so in our fear of never winning, we've created ways to help us turn away. as time goes on and the immediacy of life becomes clearer we turn away further. life is just time punctuated with distractions from death. so if this is the blueprint of having a point, then life being pointless is not bad, it's great, it's the best bit about it. embraced rather than feared we admit our infancy in the matter and <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">therefore</span> regain innocence, and because innocence cannot be judged by anything, then maybe true <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">happiness</span> might be gained.<br />so this brings me back to the question 'what is changeable?', if we view the things we measure ourselves by as man made we can therefore change them or give them as much respect as we believe they deserve. But this also results in the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">realisation</span> that life is just people responding to being alive in their environment. And so maybe this means we have lost the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">argument</span>, but in that comes a freedom and clarity to truly appreciate the now, and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">there's</span> enough distraction in that to maybe make us forget we even need punctuationkaiserboomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04633124711198720675noreply@blogger.com0
