I kind of like watching people squirm uncomfortably in situations that they don’t like. We wiggle when we see naked men dancing on a giant screen in the middle of English class. We writhe when the word “nigger” is written on a page in a book. We do an uncomfortable jig when sexism materializes before our eyes.

To me, that nervous little laugh sounds of music, that dismissive face is the Mona Lisa smile, and the repressive comments are an invitation to feast! Dear lord! Bask in uncomfortable situations for that feeling is ambrosia in the sense of life; the food of the gods that walk this earth. My goodness there would exist no atheists or homosexuals or feminists were it not for those brave souls who step into the blaring heat of controversy, discontentment, and *uncomfortableness.*

So to those atheists, anti-racists, and feminists: read deep into Uncle Tom’s Cabin for it is there that we search for peace in our judgments. And no true seeker of truth should ever be happy with their decisions for there is evidence galore, unfounded or not, to betroth and divorce you from your beliefs. Oh my: that is the beauty of life. For if we went through life with the answer, how boring would our thoughts be? With no questions to amuse us, we are but monkeys picking fleas off of one another; the ability to ponder would escape us.

Seek out the uncomfortable situations and reflect upon them. Woe to those who go out of their way to dodge the worst of life. The ignorant, upon reflection, will always come last.

Anyways…Here is a cool website with reference to a utopian society. We discussed the possibility of a society where each person is an individual and has no contact with other humans and is self sufficient. The topic of feral children was raised and this website is a very interesting reference to that. Also, please indulge me in a little squirming/laughing.

I expect some replies to this message, maybe even a few questions. Let’s actually get the dialogue rolling here, people. Expect exuberant replies.
