Default Call Me CRAZY

friend and I were discussing heath ledger and other celeb %uck ups who have the world in the palm of their hand and snort it all away.

long story short we make the connection to appreciating life consists of taking away the nice stuff we take for granted everyday.

examples: deprive yourself of food or good food for awhile to eventually make the crappiest food taste like heaven.

I seriously am considering living on the streets like a homeless person for awhile just so that I will notice and appreciate every little thing I have access to now.

anyone think that's stupid or why I shouldn't try it out?

The trick is NOT having to go that far to realize how lucky you are. Easier said than done. Only few ppl seem to be capable of doing that.

Interesting sociological (maybe more physiological?) experiment. Better you than me though.

i dont think you need to go to that extreme. obviously you get it.
there are little things you can do to show you cherish your life everyday
give someone a hug for instance

Make a movie of it. Get rich and famous off the film, find some hot actress to knock up, then use all your wealth to buy fast cars and drugs, but don't OD...


Oh, wait.
