We were conceived long, long ago.
The reason why we do not know.
Through Stone and Bronze and Iron we aged.
Against an Age of Darkness raged.
A Middle Age led us to fight
In order to turn on the ‘Light’.
Then we did Industrialize
And proudly thought, “God we are wise”.
But life not right left us intent
On a New Age Enlightenment.
New ‘light’ though simply let us ‘see’
The ‘darkness’ that will always be.
So we added Information.
Then next our Age of Confusion.
Unable still to know what’s meant
Our Age is now Entertainment.
It’s sad to think we’ve reached this day
And “Party on” is all we say.
Hmm… no, I don’t agree. I’m with what those very wise philosophers who a few years back, in our age of confusion said, “Party on dudes!”
-Bill and Ted from Bill and Ted’s Most Excellent Adventure. At the end of the day, I truly believe there is more wisdom in partying on, than drifting through unanswerable questions.
“If you have not danced today, then you have wasted a day.”
-Nietzsche
I probably spent to much time thinking it matters that we don’t waste ourselves. I really should go out more.
