The First Post
By Mereon
What should one state in his/her first post? I always ask myself this question over and over again as I'm typing my own. What should I write about here anyway? I'm not sure, so I'll just have to find out, won't I.
Let me start with something easy... How about a dull story about a good movie? That could do it, but everyone's done it already... How does one come to be original in this postmodern time? As the internet evolves it seems unlikely that no one has thought of the same idea you did. Global culture is taking over the entire planet and I am starting, slowly but surely, to be afraid that no options will be left. That everything will be decided by this culture and that so many beautiful things will be lost. I feel sad about that, but on the other hand I also feel confident that that will not be such a bad thing. Definitely every culture has something new and exotic to offer. I just hope, and that is all i can do for now, that basis of it will be intelligence, wisdom and emotions, and not pure passion, lust and shallow ideas. I hope it will help the world to develop in a different direction with new spotlight on true values. But then again i haven't defined those values myself... I'm so sloppy, although aren't all humans like that?
I don't think that any of my questions will be answered, I do not expect that to happen. Though, I do hope that I will eventually realize some of them... Time has to take it's toll on that one, I'll just have to wait and see how the things will develop.
