Wow, what a great comment Pamela. I love how you said that and thanks for mentioning that it’s a very culturally relevant post. You know me…..just doing my thing and living life by my rules. I’ve got a couple Make it Happen Monday post coming that you’re really doing to like if you liked this one.

You know what I like best about this post? That hopefully it makes people stop and rethink their assumptions about what other people mean just b/c of the meaning they attach to a word. I think this is a very culturally relevant post. And, i think that living such a positive and other-oriented life that you don’t need rules is a beautiful way to live.

Thanks for providing the Anarchy definition and for sparking this post. For me it hasn’t been a mid-life crisis….I’ve always been on the search for the happiest life ever. I’m definitely not one to settle for a good thing….I want the absolute best. Good luck with your journey and congratulations for realizing that there is definitely more out there.

Thanks for the mention Darryl!

I think the modern corruption of the word Anarchy has completely taken over the mindset of folk Darryl, which I guess is completely understandable given the mass media world we live in.

Maybe the term Utopia might be a better option even though they can be argued to mean the same thing.

Maybe it’s a mid life crisis, male menopause, call it what you will, but I’m starting to get the feeling that there’s something more or different we can do to make us happier. I ain’t got a clue what it is yet, there’s definatley something, but it’s something hazy, just out of reach at the moment, but I will grab it when it materialises, or I realise what it actually is!

I know one thing, there’ll be bikes in there somewhere!

Okay George, let’s just call it something else…..but let’s be sure that we are living that way, right?

I’m glad we were able to avoid being ripped apart….hahahahaha. Thanks for reading past the initial impact and waiting around to see where I was going with this one.

At first glace at this post I was getting ready to rip you apart, but after reading through the post I kind of like what you have to say. I’m not sure about labeling it as Anarchy but I think it is a nice way to look at things. Great post, Darryl.

Oh, and great picture by the way.

I don’t think you can convince me that Anarchy can be a positive thing, but I did like what you had to say in your post. Maybe I’m old fashioned, but that word has always had negative images attached to it for me.

When I saw the title it really got me thinking how something positive was going to be told. But you were successfully able to get me looking at things differently this morning. Happy Make it Happen Monday to you as well.
