bos and boxes

I had a thought regarding conformity and went to find a picture of a box to make my point. However as can happen when one thinks of seven things at once, I didnt pay full attention to the keyword I searched and typed in 'bos'. "Oh you idiot" I exclaimed out loud, and then saw these gorgeous pictures that came up;

arent they lovely? Random, but nice all the same!!

Anyway back to the boxes idea:

This is a box. Things fit into it. Essentially conformity is fitting oneself into the box society deems they should fit into. I dont like that at all. The people who are the most interesting are those whom discard the box and just be. I certainly do not ever wish to fit into a box. I like to think I possess some form of diversity, or craziness as it may in fact be. But yes, my thought for the day is conformity is putting people in boxes, and I say lets open up the boxes and discard them! After life is an incredibly short event, why waste it fitting into a box....this reminds me of a quote kind of; in TrueBlood, yes I watch that show, but who could resist this;

Anyway, one vampire was talking to another; both of the vampires in question had partnered humans. They were discussing why it was that they partnered humans and one vampire said words to this effect; "For them life is fleeting, every emotion, every joy, every sorrow is intensified as it could be the last"

I love this. Certainly we are going to a better place once our time on earth is done, but Life itself is an incredible gift. Every joy and sorrow should be experienced as if it were the last, the fact that we can have the experiences which create these reactions is a gift in itself. And I, personally, would take life, with all its sorrow and down times, as for every sorrow there is an even greater joy.

woah I need to learn not to jump so randomly from topic to topic. My brain is fried I swear!!

Ciao a tutti
