Being very aware that I’m very shortly going to enlist in the Canadian military – I’ve been asking myself why I am doing so, and what do I hope to achieve.
As it happened, someone sent me a Youtube link to the song ‘Shut up’ by the Black Eyed Peas. Following the related videos links I came across ‘Where is the love’ by the Black Eyed Peas. For a while I wasn’t too fond of the song and it irritated me. But now it’s one of my definite favourites. I was watching the video and listening to the message they’re giving – which is in line with the way I think and feel about the world. That made me realise that I’ll be signing up to fight for peace. To fight for a better world where good people are free to spread love, and bad people aren’t able to make the world a shitty place for the rest of us. That’s my dream and what I’ll be fighting for.
Of course, you get looney left liberal wankers who think all that nonsense about ‘a pen is mightier than the sword’, ‘don’t make war make love’, etc and all those other decadent hippy bullshit phrases from the 60′s. But fighting IS necessary in a world that isn’t perfect. War IS necessary in some circumstances to protect those who cannot protect themselves.
The image you see here is going to be my next tattoo which will cover up the fuckup on my right shoulder that the bald-headed twit in Camden Lock did about eight years ago.
