hold your head high

When someone pushes you around,

put your feet down.

Who says you can’t do anything?

When you know you won’t stop at nothing.

Cry with all your might

but learn how to fight.

Keep a stiff upper lip,

and show everyone you’re hip.

Hold your head high

and keep reaching for the skies.

Never let anybody get you down.

Show them you can turn your life around.

Be thankful to the high heavens,

and praise him for all he has given.

After a bad fall, stand up and move on.

Aches and pains won’t be for long.

Hold your head high,

and start a brand new life.

Get back into the groove,

feel the rhythmn and move.

The only way is up,

and never dare stop.

You have been broken,

But you can be whole again.

Hold your head high

and learn to live by.


direction


I do not know where I go, but the further we lay our paths, it seems the farther we are from where we should be or where we want to be.

What is Intelligent??

Intellectuality is not intelligent. Ordinary people judge intelligent based on knowledge. Knowledge is based on memory. People who gets good grades at school are not more intelligent. They get good grades because they have a good memory.

Intelligence is intrinsic to life. Intelligent is not an achievement. Each child is born intelligent, and the moment the child is born, we pounce upon him and start destroying his intelligence, because intelligence is dangerous to the political structure, to the social structure, to be religious structure. It is dangerous to the pope, to the priest, to the leader. It is dangerous to the status quo, the establishement. Intelligence is naturally rebellious.

A child is a very very open phenomenon utterly intelligent. But we jump upon him, we start desteroying his intelligence. We start creating fear in him. We call it teaching, we call it making the child capable of coping with life. Schools, universities all make him more and more unintelligent. They demand foolish things. They demand foolish things to be memroized, things in which the child and his natural intelligence cannot see any point. By the time a person comes back from the univesity, he is unintelligent - the university has done its job.
