Does the government own it ?

This is a story which ran in my mind a month ago when I was stoned or rather when my mind was expanded! I may sound like just another crazy young teenage rebel ! But trust me these thoughts which am gonna share with you are gonna haunt you for the rest of your life !

This is a story of an average teenager called Tim... He was just like any other teenager .. Amused by drugs and music.. But he hadn't known that what he took as something "cool" and ''happening" would change his whole idea about society and the world!

Tim was once high on weed and he was walking down a street, amused by the wind and the bright sun. He is just walking, wandering around. He had no destination. Yet he just walked and walked. He a found a piece of empty land in middle of the great concrete jungle ! He at once fell in love with the beautiful trees in that plot. He decided that he would smoke his next joints in that place from then on! He did the same for a day or two. The neighbors realized that there was someone smoking all day long in their neighboring plot which was empty for years! The neighbor, an old man by the name Mr.Richardo entered the empty plot to find a young man with shabby hair, constantly smiling, eyes as red as blood! He asked Tim "Who are you and what are you doing here ?". Tim replies "nothing!"."Do you own this land" asks the old man .. "Nope" says Tim. "Then the government owns it!" says the old man... "The government ??" asked Tim. "Yeah, the government. and you have no rights to sit here and do your monkey business" says the old man. "What do you see in this plot??" asks Tim. "It's just pain land filled with unwanted trees " replies the old man. "See properly. What is this plain land on ?? What have these beautiful trees grown on?? " asks Tim. "It's the Earth you fool " replies the old man.. "Does the government own it ??" asks Tim.. The old man is left shocked and confused! He is speechless now!


That was an abrupt end for a story but that sure was the end of the story and the beginning of your confusion! Who says we are free ?? If we are , IN WHAT WAY ?? The government is run by a couple of corrupt people who dominate our nation with the help of media ! I don't say that they haven't developed my country. They could've done way better if there was no corruption! But it's too late now ! All that was good has died and what we have right now is nothing but crap which we think is GOOD! The world's a scary place ! The whole concept of a happy society and a good government is something of the past! At present nobody gives a damn about anything! All they care about is money! It's become the survival of the richest !

I hope one day we will realize that the beauty that breaks down never knows the reason why! I still dream of a better world . A better place for everyone. and trust me THE GOVERNMENT WONT OWN IT !

Thank you


(I have also conveyed this story to many of my close friends verbally. But I told them that it was a real incident faced by Timothy Leary , because I thought you people wouldn't be interested in it if you knew that I came up with it :P.. Anyway. Sorry about that. he he )

Sound a lot like "good people don't need rules, and bad people won't follow them".

“Many people say that government is necessary because some men cannot be trusted to look after themselves, but anarchists say that government is harmful because no men can be trusted to look after anyone else.”
