The Freedom Of A Bird

Today, when i was in my dad's car on the way back from school, i saw a bird in the sky. I was bored, so my eyes followed the bird, just to see where it would go. Then i realised, its impossible to track a bird. It flies freely wherever it wants to. It does whatever it wants to. There isn't anything holding that thing back. The sky is the limit for what it can do. Damn, don't you just wish you could escape this crazy life and go free?

I mean, imagine if you were a bird. Your life would be so simple. Theoratically, your job is to 1) eat to survive. 2) find a partner to nest with. 3) build a nest. 4) fly around. You wouldn't have to go to school, or study, or do homework. Birds dont need education to survive. Even humans, at one point, didn't need education to survive.

Lets take the word survive. The defination of surive would be : to live. What do you need to live? Generally, when the human race began, all you needed to live was food, water, and air. Now, in the year 2006, you need to study at least 15 years to obtain a certificate of education to get a job SO that you can BUY food, water and air. While studying that 15 years, you live under the care of your parents, which, aren't perfect, causes all sorts of problems. Then you get a good job that pays you 10,000 bucks a month. Now you work long into the night. You ain't got time for your lover, nor your family. Hell you ain't even got time to find for food, water and air. Now compare that with the life of a bird. The survival of a bird hasn't really changed yet. They've been doing the same thing since a long time ago, well, generally thinking.

Ok, so enough about all that. My point is, humans should live their life to the fullest. We should just do what we want to do. Don't let anything hold you back. If i had to choose between something you WANT to do and something you HAVE to do. I'd do what i wanna do. Imagine if you died next week. Just, think about that. Now think about your life that you lived so far. Was it well worth it? Anything can happen anytime, you'll never know when a crazy truck driver might ram into your car one day. And thats it, you don't get to taste the fine taste of food, you don't get to spend no more time with your lover, you don't get to do anything at all, not even sit to talk to a friend or watch tv.

So if you want to eat pork, eat. Even if you die from high blood pressure one day, at least u died eating yummy pork. If you love this person but can't express your feelings, then spend as much time with him/her as possible. Friends help you through your day, everyday, without even noticing it. Have you thought about them? Live your life like a bird, free with as little restrictions as possible. Its up to you on how you live your life.

Yet another piece of my mind,
