Suppose I will dust off this lil guy. I read a friend's blog update, and she was writing casually about her life, and it urged me to just write more. I should write more. We all should write more. We all heavily underestimate our brain's ability to forget information of the past. Writing is good to store past moments, but don't rely on it too heavily said Socrates, because instead of using your brain to remember things, you will just always rely on written word.

In heavy contemplation here tonight. Friday night, hangin' out at the crib, deciding if I should do a Pracs study for $400 that starts tomorrow morning. Would def. help with funding a trip this summer, along with a certified kitchen for ancient roots biz, and for harvest fest. Thinkin I will donate my bod to science for a couple days.

Life has been busier lately then it has in the last year or two. With two delivery jobs, plus the gardening gig ranging around 15 hours a week. I love what we are doing, it is a challenge at times starting a food company from nothing. So many things to take into account, we just want to grow nutritious food that will benefit the community, but there are so many challenges, which is good.

Even in the counter-culture groups in which I sometimes dwell, I used to admire this sector for their ability to not transform to trends, to do things practically, not sheepishly. But over the years, I've noticed we are all basically just sheep. That at festivals, the same unpractical trends form, followers. Just the same as people following the latest trends in Vogue, and that is where the ego builds from there.

with all the various divisive labels our culture throws around, its pretty easy to create cynical judgments towards eachother that separate us.Nerd, Preppy, Goth, Hipster, Guido,Hippie,Frat Boy (are some culture has created that come to mind)These titles are thrown around as if we completely know and understand the individual based off one tiny blanket assumption society has created. Remember, we are all humans, we all have to eat,shit, and sleep. And we are all just trying to figure out the best way to do so.What's funny is these labels are all manifestations of us trying to be our own creative and individual selves, by expressing certain traits and appearing a certain way . But in reality there is no way we can deeply understand somebody based off a catch-phrase blanket label of somebody else. Be curious, not cynically judgmental.
