NOW lets look at a man, middle aged (30's), working as an executive (half-way between the big dogs and the Factory floor workers) and earning a reasonable salary that allows him to drive a Volvo s40 and his wife to drive a Chrysler Voyager (I bet u already guessed that she is a soccer mom slash stay at home wife). This dude, if i permit myself to call him that, is living a good life but as do the people who work above and below him....HE STILL WANTS TO GET MORE MONEY. Of course money is just the surface of what this 'dude' really trully wants. Money = power and power is like the Root of it all.
POWER i would say is the unimaginable control of any or all life form, having the ability to have things done your way all the way and....just plain control.
This is what i have been thinking. Im not for Money hungry, corporate level, wealthy crazy power. Im looking for that power that makes humans cower at your sight. The kind of power that could see me lift the NRZ building in Zimbabwe, Bulawayo with just the thought in my mind and making it land on the head of the idiot taxi driver that cut me off the other day. The kind of power that could make me leap in a single bound and land (matrix like) in my yard after school. The kind of power that makes any girl who looks in my general direction to feel total and utter attraction to me and want to have sex with me in the closest possible venue. Imagine power, ultimate power that could make even the powers that might or might not (thats for another blog) exist think, "DAMN, I WANT POWER LIKE THAT"
Don't think this is born from watching too many movies, or playing too many games. It probably is but that is very far from the looming point. We are lost if we feel no power, but the thought of having more power, on top of all the power that we have is but a tantalizing thought. It has been portrayed in many movies where normal human beings are endowed with super human abilities (Yes even in those regions) and take on super human tasks. I dare you to give those abilities to me... Fuck the responsibilities, i would use my power to get me to the grocery store instantly, to make steers burgers rain from the sky. To make cars on the free-way stop inches away from me and flip over me, just for fun.
I have contemplated this for a long time and i have dabbled in various sources to try and obtain super powers. i have tried the following:
- Selling my soul to the devil (Bastard doesn't know what he is missing)
- Prayed to God for the powers and promised that i will be a good little boy with them.
- Made a wish on a star
- Held my breathe to channel the power of the human spirit ( The power of the human spirit makes you fart)
- Experience a near death experience (Paracetamol will never kill you, no matter how many you take. They just make you sleepy)
- And of course i have tried what all of you have tried once or twice in their lives. Trying to close the door with your mind. A variation of which is creasing your face and using your hands in a half fist half open hand form to move the damn thing even just an inch.(it worked once but then i realized that it was just the wind that did it)
Dude, I always look at Serg sometimes when he pisses me off and try to choke him using the Force. End up looking like an old dude with Parkinson's trying to reach for his dentures just beyond reach
