Yesterday, came to the conclusion that I need a vacation. One, I've never taken one. Two, I'm just flat out burnt out on my life at present. So really, I need two vacations. One as soon as possible -- from work, even tho' I'll still have school. And the other when I have a break from school too, so I can REALLY relax. I've been going 90 to nothing between school and work for almost 18 months now.... I tired.
Last night I went and saw Avatar.... again. :) I really like this movie. I like the exploration of the interconnectedness of all life on this planet. I loved that the hero/human discovers that he can become part of it. I've read articles on people seeing this movie and becoming depressed because they don't live there and I think it's a real cop out. That connection to the world is here -- we've just lost it. Paving over everything in blacktop and concrete, enclosing our lives in steel and glass and plastic, and scoffing at the more esoteric spiritual paths, really kills those connections. There are a few "primitive" groups of humans on this world and I wonder about their connection. Makes you think......
