On vanity, materialism, and standards (discussion topic)

Just a new idea I wanted to introduce, please feel free to post your thoughts about this. None of this is an attack on anyone here, it's really my views of people in general.

My eyes have been opened since learning from Buddhist and Zen teachings. It hasn't even been that long ago that I started looking into it, and I have a completely different outlook on life and people. The teachings encourage you to be open minded when it comes to others, but I wanted to get some opinions on a few things I just don't understand about people.

I've noticed that there are people who are obsessed with showing off. They drive the most expensive cars they can get (and often spend hours keeping them shiny and spotless), wear expensive clothing and jewelry, take hours to put makeup on and do their hair, and so on.

I don't understand who they're trying to impress. I may be a guy who doesn't understand people, I guess. It seems so stupid to me that people would go that far out of their way to glorify themselves, and generally others don't like those kind of people. It's like the women that dress in a revealing way and then get mad when someone stares at them, you know?

I try to be different. I have a few rules when it comes to the way I dress (for example, I don't wear orange shirts with blue jeans), but otherwise I prefer to be comfortable. I don't understand the purpose of high heeled shoes - they've been proven uncomfortable, they look uncomfortable, but they still wear them. Is 'looking taller' more beneficial than comfort?

It seems like all people care about lately is money. Movies lately have been themed around the ultimate goal or climax being that the main character "gets a whole lot of money". I watched two yesterday that were exactly like that. I wish people would realize that worshiping paper is just as stupid as spending hours to glorify yourself. Yes I understand that having money, you can do whatever you'd like with it.

I'm no artist

I don't consider myself an artist
Even though I say writing,sketching and dancing
Are all forms of art
I stand by that
But when it comes to my own work
I'm my worst critic

You may call me a hypocrite
For saying one thing and speaking another
But my line's in my sketching always seem to lack
A certain something
My words that I write
That form poems
A few seem to like
Honest and true are they

But it wasn't until a year and a half ago
That this all started
I was encouraged to try to draw
With not experience
I just grabbed a pencil and paper
And started
Until I can get at least an outline done
I'm focused on the task
Continually examining what I have created
But their are very few of which I'm proud of
My siren and my Draco
Are their names
But I doubt if you shall remeber

Are you still their ?
Or have you already clicked back
To the home page
Regardless it seems
My words continue
About this journey that somehow started
By an unknown cause

My poems had a similiar beginning
The inspiration for those came from many places
From songs
Experiences from the past,present,
Or something I dream of
A painting perhaps is my muse
As I see it something come to mind
And the words start to flow
My story might be different from the artist who painted it
But it is my interpretation
Some of the situations that I write are something I never experienced
But I put myself in their world
For a moment
In their life
To grasp the moment and the emotion.

I never want my words to not display the truth
I want them to tell a story
Whether it be revenge,sorrow,happiness
To me it needs that display
To catch others eye
To make them stop
Even for just a moment to relate.

Sketching,and writing are still very knew to me
But my last form
I started at a fairly young age
Dance
I never did anything besides dance
Aside from school
This was the only thing I ever wanted to do
I'm not the best
I will say that
But it is in this art

thanks:
for always being loving and friendly

Solaya,SS,Zikos,Pink,Hraeth,3linmaya,Janet,Nopje,Fincayra,Kikistar2:

From the bottom of my heart
thought I would not want to both
I miss it now that tells me my tears.

I never thought,
that this friendship was so great
and now I know, my dear friends loyal.

Is that we have different ways of thinking
but we have something in common
we want
and do not mind the rest.

As time passes
we go more and more mature
but that this friendship will be preserved
as the vast sea.

My love to you
is as large as the universe
strong as iron
but so tender
as clouds and sky.

For me they are very special people

Fire's rp blog

So..
Rp blog 8P
I decided to make one, because



1.My deer are not in game as much these days with classes killing me it's hard. I'm also doing more drawing and things in my free time


2.My deer have nothing going on any more


3.I have characters that I need to develop better (so I will play them in game more when I do get on) and rp is, I have found out, the best way to do it.

WARNING
I’m not saying that things will get rough on here but language could happen so I’m tossing this warning up. To be considerate




If you do not want to rp here there is always my msn. It’s not hard to find just look on Night Shade’s bio at the end <3



Rules.
I’m not going to scream about spelling and grammar.
As long as I can tell what it is and everyone is having fun it’s ok.

Please do ///NOT// mix IC and OOC. What my characters do and yours do are- and should be purely in character.

Please do not one line me. I’m not being rude. I don’t expect books, but give me something more than say..
“Hi.” *bounces*










Night Shade

A small back doe sat quietly on a log near the play ground, watching the world around her with little interest. She yawned and flicked her fox like tail from side to side, as she settled herself in. It could be said that she was an easy target or blissfully unaware of her surroundings, but Night Shade was always on high alert. She still wore her winter fur. It would be some months yet before her white markings would return. She was better hidden in her solid coat, but stuck out like a sore thumb at the same time. The doe never worried much though. Why should she? She liked to fight and if she found herself in over her head, there were many she could run to for help.

Foolish heart

I never knew this feeling
My heart first felt
A strange and unfamiliar emotion

That crashed into me
Like the waves of a sea
The sky didn't part
To reveal a rainbow

But the clouds were whiter
And the birds started singing their song
But at first it went unnoticed
I tried to fight this emotion
Retaliating with a vengence

Our quarreling became regular bantering
I tried to shove you away
But by some unknown force
I kept encountering you
I was never a person to cling to one for company

However,I grew accustomed to you
And expected our encounters and your company
Until one day I discovered you left
I froze and my world seem to loose it's color
Your voice and laughter started ringing in my head

My heart hurts
Foolish have I been
So cautious so unsure of what this feeling was
Till your gone
A tear slips from my eye
An unseen thing to be witnessed in public

But it's real and this feeling for you is real
And I can't let it slip away
I race off torwards your destination
My heart is heavy
And will remain that way
Till you are by my side once more

5 RPs In One!

I got the idea from another RP. Some how everyone got two RPs in one, so I decided to have this!

Try it! Have five RPs in One! Make up five chars, can be anything you want, and see if you can handle it! I will start as soon as I can think of five characters!
