[matilda] Grind Rules!

[armchair hippy]

 All those rules in society...
 25 years for murder as a deterrent and still people do it.
 legalise something that people obviously enjoy doing, 
 take the fun out of it and no-one wants to do it anymore.
 
 Seriously tho, it's not the rules (or punishment) that stops
 us murdering each other. it's cos at least 999 out of every
 1000 people don't want to murder someone else --
 no amount of liberalisation of the law would change that...
 
 All those rules at matilda...
 i've never even seen them. but, like in the outside world
 we all know how to get on with each other well enough
 to live by un-written rules. Nobody brought me up 
 NOT to kill other people, just something one instinctively
 knows not-to-do.
 
 Un-written Rules (i.e Using One's Discretion)...
 like, keeping the the kitchen and dining area free from
 naughty foods. like, if someone from the outside world
 comes in munching a kebab then it's courtesy that they
 don't rub said kebab onto a non kebab-munching person's face,
 or wipe their greasy fingers over our (soon to be) lovely
 clean walls. Or, fart an un-vegan fart in a place of restricted 
 movement (like, in a monday meeting for instance, where 
 bureaucracy prevails, and, you just have to be there, no escape).....
 
 We don't all have to actively like each other and you may even feel a bad
 energy towards another person but politeness is still good, makes the day go easier... Just No Active-Disliking of Each Other, okay?
 
 Grind doesn't rule but, eventually, rules grind ya down.
 
 
 Yours,
 a Naive Hippy
 (that's where the Armchair bit comes into it.
 - red it on the internet, innit)
