All You Need Is Love - The Beatles

So... I ran into the song "All You Need Is Love" by The Beatles on line the other day. As I watched John Lennon chew on gum between verses (Nom, nom, nom) and the rest of the band played along. I couldn't help but notice that this song makes little to NO SENSE! How about "All You Need Is To Make Sense" by Lennon/McCartney/Flores? I've posted the lyrics below and highlighted the only line in the verse which makes some sense. The chorus makes some sense too, "All you need is love", but that's such an easy thing to believe when your name is Paul McCartney, half the worlds female population are throwing their nickers at you, and your royalty checks are rolling in with six zeros. (Wipes rotten tomatoes off face)






Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.(WTF?)
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung. (WTF?)
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game - It's easy.(WTF?)
There's nothing you can make that can't be made. (WTF?)
No one you can save that can't be saved. (WTF?)
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time - It's easy.(WTF!!?)
 
All you need is love, all you need is love, love is all you need.
 
There's nothing you can know that isn't known. 
Nothing you can see that isn't shown. (WTF?)
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be. It's easy.
(WTF!!!? Hello Afghanistan.)
 
All you need is love, all you need is love, love is all you need.

Open Eyes

It's difficult to manage contradictions It's distressing to see data that contradicts your beliefs It takes courage to challenge your assumptions It takes humility to acknowledge your human fallibility, and change your mind. I argue that you've not opened your eyes to the fullest without this. I've found that people run from ambiguity, and that the desire to escape ambiguity is a strong and hidden source for addiction, dogma, and procrastination.    

School and Home School

  Oh my. I don't have time to write this. So it will be as follows:   1. What is school for? I think that Seth has a good grasp on this at the bottom, see [1] 2. There's an ongoing debate about homeschooling vs. public schooling. 3. I agree with most things about home schooling. Which is why I take the view that my kids are home schooled 5 days a week, from 3pm to 9pm, on the weekends, and all of their vacation time. 4. Home schooling should feel like art, it's enjoyable (largely), so don't worry about overloading the tone of "school" in it. 5. Everyone's situation is different: (a) Some of us have checks coming to us from the government that give us all day to do as we please. (b) Some of us have to work long hours every day to survive. (c) Some of us have a spouse that gives us all day to do with as we please. (d) Some of us are the spouse that gives the other all day to do as they please. etc. 6. Thus, our ideals aren't applicable to everyone. 7. Th...

Music Playlist Debacle

 Where do you host a music playlist, your song collection, where it won't be altered by the host? I go to YouTube, and daily, my playlist is altered. I scroll through my playlist, and songs are missing because they've been blocked, or made private, or deleted. Where do you host your music playlist?
