Hello there, world! I am, once again, regretful (ok, no so much regretful as sorry) about my absence from the blogging scene. This time around, my 'summer life' has very little to do with it. I've been spending the last few days either with family or simply alone, doing alot of reading, as well as conquering Asia in my forever-and-always favorite grand strategy video game, Hearts of Iron 2. Last night was actually the first time I've spent with friends since last Thursday, I believe. It's actually pretty nice to have extended time to yourself from time to time, although it seems my friends have less of an appreciation for me when I return to the social world after a few days, although that may simply be an arbitrary emotional bias brought on by slight insecurity.
Anyways, I'd like to announce that not a single full-fledged article is on its way, but instead a series of articles based on my personally-formed philosophies. The following subjects will be studied and discussed:
The Reality and Illusions of Reality,
Old-world Morals,
The Reality and Illusions of Dreams, Visions, and Memories,
Individual Outlooks on the World and the Universe,
The Existence/ Extent of Free-Will,
The Deceptions of Society,
The Role of Emotions,
The Requirement/ Use of Structure,
Life prior to Life,
Life after Death,
Personal Relationships,
Impersonal Relationships,
The Existence of Alternate States of Reality,
The Existence of Alternate States of Existence,
Natural Precognition,
The Existence of a Spirit or Soul,
And last, but not least: Existence Beyond the Human Mind.

The world is meaningless,
there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
