In the end, it all comes down to a choice. Do you choose to live in this world, or do you want to choose something better? Simply wanting a better world will not make it so unless you are prepared to work for it. The only conflicts that you need to resolve are internal.

"If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice" - Rush

"The illusion of freedom in America will continue for as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way, then they will pull back the curtains and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater."
~ Frank Zappa

My life could be a lot better than it is. I'm happy, but it's not like I'm ecstatic. Life is like topography Hobbes. There are summits of happiness and success...flat stretches of boring routine....and valleys of frustration and failure. But I'm dedicating myself to experiencing only peaks! I want my life to be one neverending ascension! Each minute of every day should give me greater joy than the previous minute! I should always be saying "My life is better than I ever imagined it would be, and it's only going to improve". - Calvin (The Indispensable Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson)

I am all about quiet nights in the woods gazing at the stars next to a campfire
