Love and let live

I would choose :Live a long life, but remain known only to a small group of people. (be an average Joe).
Because Although I love to stand out and be especially known for something that could advance the human race and my name would become an household name and be widely known across the Universe, I don't think I could be on my top priority of things to be known by people I don't know. I rather have been grateful that i have touched 1 because it is special.Life is the greatest thing in the world. I would like to stretch out my life's events. The longer it is the more happier I'll be. It's not like I'm OK with being an Average Jane but you learn more from experience and experience =time.I am not that mush concerned about people remembering me after I'm dead cuz I won't remember them. life is way much important er than being recognized by something like extremely stupid like being rich.I like the kind of recognition that only you know its very important( the only way I can explain it is that its quiet).

When i was a young laddie girl

wow! There are so many books that I read when I was a kid. Well. In elementary school we had this star program for reading, and every year someone would win the program in grades 1-5. Well I was a huge nerd back then so I read just about every book in that library from "Authur" to everything else. So I won one year. Anyway...Like in 3rd grade or something even though they were like 2nd grade reading book. I read all the Authur books like crazy. That was only because I would watch the show. My favorite character was D.W. of course. My Brother said I was like D.W. to him only because he thought I was really annoying to him. I don't really know why I was enraptured by the character D.W. beacuse now I think she was a little smart A tryin' to get up in everybody's Bizz-nass. Those characters in the books and shows are really memorable because they all matched a type of personality of the kids who went to my school.As I went in to 4th grade I decided that was more like that tomboy girl, what's her face.And also there was this 16 yr old(looked like it) kid in our 4 th grade and he reminded me of Binky.And now as I think about that book and show(mostly the book), i realize 8 yr olds aren't that smart and deal with complicated problems like faceing puberty.

Siddhartha

"The world, friend Govinda, is not perfect or on a slow journey toward perfection; no, it is perfect every moment; all sin already bears its forgiveness within itself; every little boy already bears the old man within himself, every infant bears death, every dying man bears eternal life. No one is able to look at someone else and know how far along on his journey he is; in the highwayman and dice player lurks a Buddha, in the Brahman lurks the highwayman." p. 77 Siddhartha

Basically, This quote speaks to me is that according the universe and its other micro and mega objects, time is nothing. Life is part of the cycle it. Everything happens for a reason and there is no way to reverse it because it doesn't happen case it already is. There is no need to worry about how things could be because it probably will be(Being there is no past, present, nor future).Everything seems to come from one source. We westerners think that is totally insane in the membrane because we are so focused on the here and now and soul. Siddhartha had a few western and eastern philosophy in it like the idea to truly understand you have to try it(or something along those lines). But with the "all object are not unique. nOt important..and love everything" Some people belive you can hate anything...
