I am searching for the meaning of life. I do not know the meaning of life. I have no idea if i am even getting close. I have always wondered what would happen if I actually found out the meaning of llife. Would you turn to pure energy and evolve the next step up the ladder? Would you even realize that you found out?

Whatever happens I am at a great disdain because i feel this is the only thing that is a worthy goal in life but i am also scared that it might be unatainable.

Maybe all I need is a grass hopper and a star.

Apparently 2003 is the year that pop broke.
By this I mean POP music. This year more pop music was produced and accepted. This is disgusting. My main problem with pop music is it has low musical and artistic merit. Sure there are exceptions, there are always exeptions, but that is irrelavent. I personally feel the music becomes popular for two reasons.

-1 there is a lot of push behind the music by the record companies. This will ensure that the song is heard alot and being creatures of habit we humans actually like repetition and the music 'grows on us'

-2 pop music is easily digested. Who wants to think when we listen to music. Subject matters such as skater boys and nice hair are easily heard, understood and dismissed.

If you find yourself questioning if music is good or not there are three tell tale signs

-1 you think about thigs you wouldn't usually think about
-2 you become either angry or sad
-3 you get that shiver up your spine

Music is art and is supposed to portray ideas and help change the world for the better. Music is not supposed to be about getting laid, dumped or shot
