Yes, if we get to do it of our own volition - no peace when others decide it for you.
Give a man a fish - feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish - feed him for life. What is life?

Life is the existence as we know it. Purpose, and after life are up for opinion. Personally, I think my energy will transfer on to another realm, taking monumental past experiences with it as it begins a whole new journey.
Can you prove to me that you are not figments of my imagination?

No, but I'm positive that we're just fragments of humanity.
Have you ever contemplated the trouble in making a perfectly round door like Bilbo Baggins had on his house?

Tough call. I'd have to say a Hobbit hole. I very much like quaint and cozy spaces.

Too many and too long, but here's one.
Performing with a 9 piece African band in a basement club in downtown Los Angeles. Very low (sub-code) ceilings, from the stage the roof was just barely above our heads. And we had a fire-eater (who would belch out huge blasts of flame) performing with us in the second set. I was looking at that low ceiling, and the fire-safety sprinkler heads, and it was pretty nerve wracking. I actually redid my bass cords. Usually I do a wrap through the strap on one end, and through the amp handle on the other, to keep the cord from coming out if it's stepped on. In this case, I had it straight into both, so I could jump offstage and be unplugged instantly if the water started to come down when Sisoukou started belching fire.
It didn't. Which then made me wonder if the fire safety system worked at all...
Do you prefer deep existential questions or simple questions about food and gigs in this thread?

I prefer the thinkers questions, but the food derail was light fun.
How soon do you think the drums of Moria will be heard again?

Others... dear god others. I am content with how I operate. However, if I face an obstacle that involves me and only me, I am left to me to get myself out of it. It may be hard, but it is only me. When you have to deal with others... you cannot control them. You cannot make force them, expect them, or even will them to do something. Sometimes you can, but sometimes you have to wait for it from them. Others definitely take the cake on standing in the way. I am going through something of that right now actually....

Hey, he was at Woodstock! One of my friends bought a sitar because of him.
Rivets and Sprockets were flying through space at a terrible pace - does anyone know how this all turned out?

Yeah, how else would you have a parade?
Do you know your destiny, and did you have anything to do with it?
Do you know your destiny, and did you have anything to do with it?
Somewhat. I did get a glimpse into my future. I did not entirely like it. So now I am doing what it takes to change it - so yes, I have a lot of do with it.
If tomorrow, you woke up and had no recollection of who you are, what you are doing in your life, and no memory of the people around you (essentially Dissociative Fugue Disorder).. What would you do?
