What does it mean to be human? Why?
"Being human means missing the point of life. We as a society have evolved so much all of this so we can enjoy life. But now we don't have time to live. Time to enjoy the simple pleasures that life has to offer us. In an effort to improve life we have negated it."
 
It's your Cue. What are the ways you Cue The Human inside yourself? How do you remind yourself to be human with your thoughts, actions, and ideas?

"I love listening to Alan Watts and Terrence McKenna. They were both visionaries and intellectuals who contributed to let others know that the war is a spiritual war."
 
Do you have any Philosophies you follow? Why or why not?
"Taoism. I follow it because it provides a metaphysical answer as well as ethical one."
