- -------
-
- Many of you have read my previous works in F.U.C.K., particularly
- F.U.C.K. #164, where I relate the mean tales of my youth. How then, you
- may wonder, have I come up from whence I was born? How is it that my
- situation in life has changed? Or has it changed? Am I now the same
- mental, emotional and physical weakling that was me as a child?
-
- No. I am not. I have changed. I have changed considerably. I am now
- a veritable mental giant, yet not without the ability to explore and
- learn afresh. I am emotionally invulnerable, yet I easily become soft
- and tender when the time arises. On a physical level, I am now the
- hunter, no longer the hunted. I do not fear a mental challenge, nor an
- emotional challenge, nor a physical challenge.
-
- What has caused these changes? How did I raise from the small inner
- city child with no social skills, no friends, no future and no value to
- become the god of myself and my environment that I am now? How did I
- attain such mastery of man and machine as I now posess?
-
- Did I win the lottery?
-
- No.
-
- Did I inherit a million dollars?
-
- No.
-
- Did I find God?
-
- No.
-
- Did I find the answers in the writings of L. Ron Hubbard?
-
- No.
-
- Did I travel to the Far East and study Buddhism?
-
- No.
-
- Was I a six million dollar federal research program?
-
- No.
-
- Was I kidnapped by space aliens and sent back to conquer Earth?
-
- Not even close.
-
-
- It was none of these. I was none other than a will to power. Yes, a
- simple act of human will.
-
- Previously, in my weak and pitiful state, I looked to a divine being to
- aid me through this world. I looked to the next world as a place of
- rest, a place where I would be safe from the dangers of this life.
-
- This was nothing more than dangerous escapism. This divine being did
- nothing but keep me from acting on my own. If god was here to take care
- of me, what need did I have to take care of myself? If god was here to
- set my ethical and moral standards, what need did I have to think for
- myself? Until I escaped this self defeating philosophy, I was doomed to
- a life of failure.
-
- Atheism brought me out of this. Athiesm forced me to think of this
- world as the first and final battleground. No longer would I have an
- afterlife to look forward to. This life would be the only one I would
- get, and I had better make it count. No longer would I be able to
- accept defeat here, knowing that I would be safe and protected in the
- afterlife. If I was to rise victorious, it would be in the here and
- now.
-
- Athiesm forced me to think for myself. No longer could I simply look at
- an ancient tome to tell me what was right and what was wrong. Instead,
- I was forced to examine every bit of life itself and determine for
- myself the true nature of right and wrong. I was forced to become my
- own god.
-
- No longer was a divine being responsible for my creation, my life, and
- my destruction. I was now in charge of me. This engendered a strong
- sense of personal responsibility in me. *I* was responsible for myself,
- no one else. My actions would ultimately lead to my success or my
- failure. And that success or failure would be final, no more would I be
- granted a second chance in the afterlife.
-
- I stopped accepting defeat. No one would best me, no matter the cost.
- This affected more than the combative side of my interpersonal
- relationships. I saw through my previous failures and realized that
- many of my previous violent confrontations were the result of the
- failure of my own social skills. This must be cured, I realized.
- Furthermore, I must cure it myself, as there was no longer a divine
- being to assist me or comfort me if I failed.
-
- I fought, fought my way free of the social and socioeconomic state I was
- in. I learned computer science as a tool to move myself up on the
- economic scale. With only one formal class in computer science, I
- aquired employment teaching computer science at a state college. How
- did I do this? Hard work, led by force of will. Hard work, and the
- mental agility built by the rigors of defining my own system of ethics
- and morals. After you have created your own philosophical system,
- computer science is childs play!
-
- I fought to meet people and to interact with them successfully. I
- fought with myself, with my poorly developed skill set. Now that I was
- free of the horrid judeao-christain concept that sex was evil, I fought
- to learn how to interact on an emotionally intimate level with women.
- Free of the sexism inherent in any religious system based upon judaism,
- I was now able to interact with females on an equal intellectual level.
-
- All of these changes made me free of my previous environment. No longer
- would I interact with the people I had interacted with before, nor would
- I interact with people the same way as I had before. I met new people,
- people who had not known me before. People who saw the new me and
- judged me for what I was at that time, not what I had been before.
-
- It took two years from the time I started until any appreciable changes
- were noticable by those around me. It took another two years before the
- new me dominated the old me. I took another two years before I was able
- to finish the process. Another 6 years has passed in my life, where I
- continue to change and to grow with each passing year.
-
- I cannot compare my life now with my life growing up. If I had to do it
- all over again, I might choose to take my own life instead. It was
- hard. I would not wish my tribulations on the worst of my enemies.
- However, the times and events of my early life have given me a tough
- inner strength. Nothing I face now causes me fear, because I know I
- have survived the worst that life has to offer. I am invulnerable.
-
- My life now is quiet and peaceful. At times, I have difficulties
- dealing with the adjustment. I no longer constantly fear for my life,
- and was the case for the majority of my youth. I no longer engage in
- constant conflict with the people around me. I create conflict when I
- wish to create conflict, and peace when I wish to create peace. I no
- longer travel the world alone, just me and my imaginary god. I am able
- to share my emotions with those few people whom I choose to become
- intimate with. I do not fear their rejection, because I know the value
- of myself. I have found hapiness, I created it for myself.
-
- You too can obtain the happiness that I now posess. Take control of
- your own life. Stop blaming others for your life. Stop relying on god,
- your parents, or the welfare state. Do not let any of these take care
- of you, physically, mentally, or emotionally.
-
- If your parents take care of your physical needs, they will also create
- a framework for your mental and emotional life. If the state takes care
- of your physical needs, it will do the same. The state teaches people
- that they are subservient to it. The check every month is a periodic
- reminder of who is in control. If you give the state nothing, and the
- state gives you money, you are a child of the state. How then can you
- have a sense of your own self worth, if you have no value to the state?
- How can you have a true sense of your own self worth if your life is
- subsidized and managed by your parents? Only when we struggle and
- succeed on our own can we know our true value. Only when we know and
- appreciate our true value can we guarantee our own mental strength.
- Only when these two are fortified can we ensure our emotional
- well-being.
-
- Live your own life. Create your own path. Do not rely on other men for
- anything. Not for your physical needs, not for your morals, not for
- your ethics, not for your ideas of right and wrong, not for your mental
- training and education, not for your sense of self worth, not for your
- emotional health, not for anything.
-
- Rely only upon yourself, and you will grow until you are able to provide
- for yourself. You will grow until you no longer need other men to
- provide for you. Not for your physical needs, not for your mental
- needs, not for your emotional needs. When this comes to pass, you will
- have conquered yourself. Once you have conquered yourself, nothing else
- will be able to arouse fear in your heart. You will never face a
- tougher opponent, nor will you ever find a more sweet victory.
