For the life of me

It cannot be perfectly put by anyone but myself. Or so I believe.

The mental transformation in relation to the new found state I am in, aka fruitarianism, has brought about the knowledge that everyone seeks to pursue that which is unattainable, for it is necessary to be happy. In pursuit of happiness, we have found goal, and forgot all else. And so the world in its gluttonous state only wants what it can afford, and waste its money, even so, excessively, on that which it cannot buy. Happiness. Peace. And security.

In South Africa, at least, we have come to the point where even our wise-men, the intellectual elites, have failed us miserably to note what went wrong with our society in their news programs and newspaper prints. They always want what's most dire to them, without looking the eagle in the eye. It mentions society as if it is run by one person or group of persons. It mentions trouble as if it was unavoidable. It fails to mention though what life is actually like. With or without an oppressor. The man, the citizen, of South Africa, bears responsibility to all South Africans, even the ones that migrated here. Yet he does not hold himself accountable to all else. Instead he twists and turns into a knower of some unthinkable truth which he calls his life. Something unique and far away from reality. Let's call this delusion. Now I am just another of its kind. I also had and have my moments of detachment, but please we have to be serious as to the matter at hand.

We can live off fruit alone. Whether that is something that the future expects from us, is irrelevant. Now is the time for us to stand back and take into consideration the costs involved in our manufactured needs. All of it will be our end, and who's to blame, the ones not on the fruit diet. It's as simple as that.

Sad news

I've quit smoking today. Yet again. Now if only I can get back on the eden-fruitarian track. :-)
