dear giving it all away before it is taken diary,
yesterday's argument with the unibomber left me at odds with myself. we fought about needing and wanting. i stopped wanting when i realized i have all i need, which incidentally wasn't that long ago, just the other day in fact, but it did happen. the unibomber says a person "NEVER" stops wanting, but i truly believe i have. when i asked him what it was he 'needed' that he couldn't go out and obtain, he couldn't answer. when he asked me what it was i 'wanted,' honestly, i could think of nothing. this morning in the kitchen, i noticed i needed paper towels, tinfoil, and dishsoap- but if i want to get that shit... I CAN. so i suppose i do want some things still. but will it make me happy though when i stand in line to buy my needed items that i want? define need. define want. and now define happy. they all mean three different things.
