I've recently become obsessed with the UK Hardcore song, "DEVIL" by DJ S3RL. It really made me think of what I consider my lifestyle to be.
I consider myself to be a "devil". Not a fire-breathing demon from Hell mind you, no. I think of the term "devil" as someone that dares to challenge man-made laws put into place to keep us from celebrating our existance. In the novel Unwind, one of the characters claims, "You can not change human nature without first changing the law.", and I realized that many people only consider certain things to be wrong because they are illegal. A lot of raves are still illegal, but is it truely wrong to want nothing more than to dance in pure celebration of life at it's most ecstatic, hedonistic form?
And after all that, when compared to the "Angels" aka the people that remain silent and obediant and let others decide what's right, I truely consider myself a devil...and you know what? I'm proud of it.
...too much philosophy? Fine, here's another picture.
