on leaving

Perhaps what I wish to do isn't quite as adventerous as Tom Neale, but I also want to leave.

Maybe I'm just tired. Maybe I'm drunk. But maybe, just maybe, someone put an idea into my head that I can't shake.

Granted, this person didn't say Utopia, I did. As a matter of fact, this person stated that Utopia was 'unattainable' due to 'them' putting the idea into our heads that it isn't. I however feel that utopia is a mindset, and that it is attainable as long as I do not lose site of the goal.

All I wanna do is have some fun.

My idea of fun may not be the same as yours. I want to build my house out of adobe and straw bales. I want to grow my own food, harvest my own food, hunt my own food and live my own way.

I want to create a new 'civilization' based on not the most 'technological', not the most 'hip', not the most 'current' life styles. I want to draw from past civilizations that have prospered for a while.

I may or may not want someone there to do it with me, it all depends on my mood....
