Anarchism Is Nature
Anarchism Is Nature
Posted: Thu Mar 05, 2009 2:40 am
(This is a debate worthy essay I recently wrote)
Bombs explode and a riot brakes out. The people in their homes cry and you think, anarchy.
Chaos is the most noted interpretation of anarchy and by far, the most inaccurate. Anarchism is the most natural state of existence and you yourself involve yourself in anarchy daily, for you are a product of nature.
If it is too hard for you to see how anarchy can be compared to nature just take a look outside. Watch how the birds fly in swarms all for their own intention and beautifully come together as a single being. The very grass you walk on every day works in ways of anarchy. No single strain of grass lives for the one next to it and yet every strain grows next to another and becomes a field glistening in the sunlight. The trees do the same and become forests. Even the leaves on the tree branches work through this natural law. The grass, the trees, the leaves, the fruit growing off the trees and the birds that feed off them while depending on the plants for oxygen all coexist. Despite their differences they all work together in harmony, in anarchy.
In our everyday lives we unknowingly participate in an anarchistic life style. When you group up with your friends and you all decide what to do for the day, lets say going to the movies, you decide that going to the movies doesn't fit your wants and obviously not your needs as you do not need to go to the movies. You have a bad morning and you are stressed out so you decide to go for a jog. You and your friends say your goodbyes, you all go on your way and no one is harassed or sent to jail. The end result is that everyone had a better day.
In large groups of moving people, like the streets of New York, everybody moves in between each other. There is no authority to how they walk they just naturally move through each other and if you pay close attention a lot of people don't even look at who is in front of them. It is simply in their nature to walk past each other and not into each other, they coexist.
It is not until authority comes into play that man kind, plant kind and animal kind lose their grip and become corrupted, confused and lost. Anarchists are much like the flowers that sprout from the cracks in the sidewalks. Anarchy is inevitable because in the heart of every organism lies their nature and anarchy is just that, nature.

Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, so shall louis vuitton outlet descend to our roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth. But if, in your fear, you would seek only love's louis vuitton wallets and love's pleasure, then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love’s threshing-floor, into the seasonless world where authentic louis vuitton handbags shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears. Even as juicy couture outlet is for your growth so is he for your pruning.Love gives naught but it self and takes naught but from itself. Love possesses not, nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love. In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than in mine, juicy couture purses will rest the final success or failure of our course. Since this country was founded, each juicy couture sale has been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe. Youth is not a time of life; coach outlet is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; coach bags outlet is the freshness of the deep springs of life. There is a strong view that holds that success is a myth, and ambition therefore a sham. Does this mean that coach wallets outlet does not really exist? That achievement is at bottom empty? That the efforts of men and women are of no significance alongside the force of movements and events now not all success, obviously, louis vuitton outlet store is worth esteeming, nor all ambition worth cultivating. Which are and which are not is something one soon enough learns on one's own. But even the most cynical hermes kelly bag admit that success exists; that achievement counts for a great deal; and that the true myth is that hermes birkin handbags are useless. To believe otherwise is to take on a point of view that is likely to be deranging.
