Song: A Lifetime Band: Better Than Ezra Album: Closer

and you move like water
I could drowned in you
and i fell so deep once
'till you pulled me thru

So i bought this album this weekend and well this is just the song that i was reminded of... and well i like it. Even though it maybe about death oh well. I love BTE a wonderful new album put out by them :)

The answer to the question....
Men are disturbed not by things that happen.
But by their opinion of the things that happen
-Epictetus

Anyways so i'm in class today talking about Thoreau and to be honest i find it funny that he talks about only surviving on necessary items. Yet at the same time he's going to Emerson's all the time because he's bored and lives out in the woods. And he eats dinner there (luxury) and then his family brings him cakes and things (yet another luxury) For a man that said that you could live off beans he sure is using high selling items. Why is that people either believe in the Market Economy or hate the it. We wouldn't be here if there was not a market. Hell we wouldn't have anything we do today. i was having a discussion in my head last night (now this is the time right before i go to bed and contemplate the mysteries of the universe) about how we, as Americans, don't produce the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the things we use for entertainment. To be honest the only thing that i could think of that i produced was energy. and this is just energy that i use to survive. The twenty-first century is crazy... crazy i tell you. How can people go from total farming (independence) to a Market Economy (dependence). And this folks is what my paper is about :) well actually it's just how Americans have gone from independence to dependence.
