[QUOTE="Harry Haller, post: 208746, member: 14641"] Good morning, although mine tend to be a lot earlier than yours :) its one of my favourite videos, and songs, it is a song about love, but then there appears to be two types of love, the love that is able to be felt, and the love that is aspired to. I am afraid as time goes on, the love in me is dying, perhaps I should explain, I have always been a man of heart not head, it is why my life is constantly shifting and why I never make plans, because my whole life is based on love, on potential, on dreams, on anything at all that does not involve my head, when I was younger, my dad bought me my first car, a Fiat Strada, it lasted a few months, I noted that in the Auto Trader, older luxury cars went for no money at all, my dad advised me to stay clear, as the upkeep and running would be astronomical, but of course, I live by the heart, 6 months later I had a 1978 S Class in chocolate brown, which sparked a love affair with old classics, and over the years cost me a fortune, I fell in love with a girl from the US, again, spent fortunes on travel etc, but it was all ok, because love is precious, it is free, oh yes, love, what a great concept, maybe I never knew love, because from where I am standing at the moment, the more love I seem to have had in my life, the more madness I had, I think it is possible to cultivate a relationship with god through the head and not through the heart, I think it is possible to cultivate a relationship with creation through the head and not the heart. accepted Dear Herman Hesse wrote that “The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.” I would add that the man of love is ruined by love, it is human nature. Love can be seen to be an excuse for irrational behaviour, to explain why a man would fly 6000 miles just to spend one night with a woman he loves, and then wake up and fly 6000 miles back again, there is no logic, no wisdom in love. and here is the crux, love has become a byword for actions that are not quite rational, largely due to the fact that it is subjective. I would go as far as to say it is not even the journey, all we have is now, today, this hour, this minute, its hard to take seriously, life has lost a lot of its gravitas for me, we live in a mad world, full of opinions that seem important, of strange actions and desires that are all justifiable, not really, I am no more awake than I have been all my life, I never wanted to be the little boy that shouted that the emperor had no clothes, I wanted to be close to the emperor, sharing in his new fashion ideas, I have realised that I can still be the former, and pretend to be the latter. I am not the future any more than I am the past, I am something quite different, there will always be people like me, madmen, men who rush in where angels fear to tread, not for the good of mankind, or for the love of god or people, but to satisfy our own childish curiousness, to feel something new, to experience, right up the point where you realise all you are doing is creating memories, your a memory generator! I am just a man finding my way through the forest, I am no future. I disagree, the only constant in my lives have been my parents, I am looking forward to spending time with them, genuinely looking forward to it. No one is perfecting or mastering anything, battles do not conveniently queue up, you fight when you have to, and if you have to fight several at the same time, then you do. [/QUOTE]
