another rant

President Obama announced that the U.S. is now a secular country. This is
Ironic and confusing, I always believed that the U.S. was a secular country,
OK I was never that disillusioned, I have always had a hunch that religion
Ruled over this country, with Blue Laws and all the other obvious signs
Such as a National Day of Prayer, however, with this ground breaking
Announcement, we now have a license to point a finger and say “for a
Period of time the U.S. was a nonseular country?” Call us crazy no more.

Our ever intelligent president stated "The United States is a nation of
Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus and non-believers." The
Melting-Pot Culture possessing diversity? It should be obvious that a land
Where brave individuals came to practice freedom of religion has Jews,
Muslims, Christians, Hindus and non-believers, however until now we
Were a Christian country. The U.S. being a non-secular country is
Unconstitutional, Jefferson penned “I contemplate with sovereign
Reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that
Their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of
Religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall
Of separation between Church & State.”None-the-less Sara Palin is still
Trying to make us a Christian country.

Lunatics at Home

I participated in a small private 4:20 festival, I know, it is cheesy, but it as a well deserved relief from an existential krisis: the realization that I will leave no mark on the earth save a stone-of-ages, which is only temporary, no, no one will survive me in my obituary; I am married but I have no children. No one will visit me at my house by the sea. My wife reminded me that I do live near the sea: 50 miles away, in that way the joke is on me. Speakng of being married, I am not very good at it, I am horrible at it, a social ineptitude washes over me, it is a sickness of the mind and a form of selfishness, I do not feel like I am owed anything, but deserve something, I struggled for years doing the best I could in college, and I obtained a degree, I deserve a suitable job (looking in the non-profit and/or writing feilds), I want to help if I can, in some way, rather than just drain society of all its' worth, yet I have grown cruel. It may being due to losing myfriends over nothing, but it is most likely due to not having the status I want, I have the qaulities that statistics states as the norm for acheiving, yet I fail, I fall short in one department, I have Congenital Nystagmus, whichak causes a slight shaking of the head. Well unemployed I am trapped here in my house - growing socialy inept and bitter.

Lunatic by the Sea


At this point, living by the sea is my only real goal. It is not that there is a lack of things I want to accomplish or experience in my lifetime, but a doubt in all things except Murphy's Law, a Pyrrhic world-view has overcome any sense that the chaotic mechanism that wields the hand of time has anything good in store for me. I do not believe in fate, nor have I ever, but obstacles seam to be more of a burden on some than others, and occur more often. As time flies by I become more jaded, I am impressed by less and expect less. Of those few rewards I receive, even less are satisfying: the few times a year I hear the roar of the sea and a rare good nights rest, are the limited moments of ecstasy; in my formative years everything was so much more exciting and fulfilling, but the decisions I have made, and the random effects of time have lead me towards the mundane, notice I do not mention “fate.” There is no such thing as fate, nor is there such a thing as freewill: freewill is the ability to do as one pleases without repercussions, fate is a destined outcome regardless of choice, we exist somewhere between these two poles, yes I am free to pursue my of living by the e sea, but something in the law of nature may holds me back, those obstacles that weigh so heavy on the goals of some and seam to be in favor of the goals of others. I have obtained a B.A. However, all other things I attempt seam to end in shambles: interpersonal relationships go sour, attempts to make a living end in shambles. At this point I want to retire by the sea, so I may write in peace.

More Lunacy

This town makes me ill; once I believedld it was something in the air, like polution, and for a while I thought I was just crazy, however, there really is something sickening here, it is the people - they are a train wreck, and they bring you down with them, maybe I am just nystalgic for the days of college, when I had some hope, I believed I was going to do something good, and my wife and myself believed we would never return to this town again, but here we are sick with something, and really losing our minds.
