Let Capin' Jack Teach Us

For this entry in my blug, I call upon a song from the Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End Soundtrack entitled "What Shall We Die For" and it got me thinking,



What shall we die for? What are we fighting for?



I've axed people about what their answer would be, and their answers were simply predictable, but thats ok. I think personally, i cant answer this easily. Im fighting everyday. Not in the literal sense, but striving to live another day. i think im fighting and dying for the sake of living. Let me repeat that in color, I'm fighting and dying for the sake of Living.

What are you fighting for? People fight for peace, justice, freedom, love, hate, revenge, life, death, pinneaples, and automatic toaster ovens. If someone were to answer said question, would that answer touch upon the way they are, they way they'll end, the way they will be?


RANDOM: Does anyone remember the tv show, Boy Meets World. hehe, FEEEENY

  1. Hmm I've asked myself that question many a times and got to thinking of Narnia. Yes Narnia. Cause in battles like those I asked myself "would i really fight and risk dying just for the sake of good?" Cause I don't know how Susan can just stand in the middle of battle shooting people with her cool bow and arrows just to "defeat evil". I don't know if tomorrow some terrorist invaded our country if I would "fight" just for the sake of good... good question to ponder :)

  2. I'll fight for the feeling you get when you see the person you love, when they whisper "You look pretty today" in your ear, when you smile because you know you'll see them when you wake up.
    I'll fight for my right to say what I want in front of who I want and not be embarrassed, to let loose everything polluting my mind even if nobody can understand me.
    I'll fight for others' rights for the same things I have, and more, for their lives to be blissful and in their control.
    I'll fight for my friends and lovers and family, the people who will love me and cherish me for who I am and will become, good days and bad, and shake sense into me when I'm acting brainless.

    I'll die for them.

    love,
    HJ

  3. I don't even know why I keep living everyday.
    wow that sounded dark.
    I mean
    I don't know.
    I guess I just...
    hm.
    I feel like right now, I live just because I have to.

  4. I fight for happiness. And I know that happiness is kind of an intangible feeling. Not something you can achieve, or sometimes even fight for. But I fight for what people mistake it for. I fight for a feeling of being content. Content with myself and with my actions.

    I'm curious, though, what those predictable answers were?
