It Will Never End.

"It will never end"

Well, it was a bit strange to wake up with that scrawled across my wrist this morning. I'd forgotten my friends sister had taken 5 minutes to write it on my arm. Maegen is 15, and I'm not entirely sure about how to spell her name, and I'm assuming that it was an attempt to be profound. Either that or she's a clairvoyant and she successfully predicted one of three things:

a) I'm going to continue to freeze my ass off for as long as I live.
b) I'll be chasing after people out of reach.
c) She'll never falter in her attempts to impress others through profoundness.

It did achieve what it was meant to, though. It made me think about her, but it also got me thinking about all sorts of things. You'll find I have a habit of letting my mind run away from what I should be focussing on and taking it's own path, finding questions to dwell upon until they bug me enough to find some kind of an answer, or at least an opinion on the matter.

But when I found Maegen's graffiti I was listening to the Hilltop Hoods song, Breathe, and I was caught on one line for at least half an hour!
"A man's success ain't measured by the depths of his pocket."

Will we ever get to a point as a culture or civilisation to actually take the grand "if you don't have this you don't have anything" emphasis off wealth and fortune and finally put the spotlight on knowledge and experience? Probably not in this lifetime.
There's a movie called "Idiocracy" that shows my way of thinking about this. It's a terrible movie with poor acting and all, but this is where we're heading at the moment.
