If you recognize the what the so called prverbial life is and prefer it then you make a choice I think Evan Tanner was talking about people who do **** and don't realize it

so you recognizing and choosing to live the materialistic life is kinda different then someone who just does without thinking about it ,
and I dont think Evan Tanner implies any hate at all, him and I just want people to recognize what more life has out there to offer.

If you dont believe life should be more than my qoute then be mad about it but be honest with yourself when you do make that connection


What's funny is that I don't live a materalistic life. I don't currently have a steady job, and I'm living off of financial aid.

Sure it would be great to live a carefree life not worrying about anything, but realistically, that's just not the case. I mean, I suppose I could give up everything and become a farmer who plants eggs and grows fried chicken, but that'll never happen.

I think a more important connection is one that involves a more realistic approach.

I don't think you even understand what you quoted, nor it's relevance in modern society.


Your the one not seeming to understand

But you are interpreting it the way you want I interpret it the way I want, and then you have the authors intention

I think you should live your life the way that makes you happy I truly do just strive for greater thing

I believe life is about experiences not stuff I live for the next great adventure ,
I am not talking about being a green freak living off the land and being charitable

all your quotes have been way off , but no worries man your much smarter than me it's cool brah just think your way and I'll think my way and you dont have to like the original post it was just something I thought was profound and from I man I greatly respect , I will be me you be you

I am just saying what evan tanner is saying dont let the pursuit of possessions run your life


You seem to assume that possessions ruin everyone's lives. I have possessions, but my life is not ruled or ruined by them. If you don't want possessions, that's great--why worry if others have them?

There was a popular song out years ago that said anyone who says possessions aren't good never had a welfare Christmas.

I am not advocating anarchy, I talk about my professional life as well as I am a Pro Fighter so I hope that puts things in perspective and you read my post knowing that you will see you take a new meaning from it, when I talk about removing people in my way


I did read your post and you are advocating anarchy! When a person becomes "free" to choose which rules by which he/she lives, then doesn't everyone else have the same right? That's anarchy!



As for being a uncreative rebel and you think I am selfish that is fine I am selfish in my own way , as for uncreative probably but I do what makes me happy and the way I do it is my way and off course it would follow some sort of pattern everybody has some sort of pattern so that makes little sense to point that out


And what I do makes me happy--so why try to change my mind or advocate your way of life? Shouldn't you be happy to just live that life?


And I dont want the world to be my way I want my world to be my way there is a difference


Then why start a thread urging others to live as you do?
