learning more and more about how our society and government function, and the values they are based on, is driving me crazy. the fact that our designed purpose as Americans is to consume, the way we outsource, the built in prejudice in capitalism. Even if, as individuals, we recycled all we could, i don't think that we could reverse, or even halt, the forward motion of production that our nation has propelled.
my latest incident with ridiculous republicans has made me even more biased. I now have a solidified prejudice against all republicans, whether or not they all deserve it.
The fact that protesting would do nothing to help, even if reforms were made, i am afraid that there is a root to every issue we see today and there are changes so much bigger then reforms that need to be made.
i was fooled for so long into thinking that we had a liberal media.
my heart has been hurting so much lately.
i think i'm finally breaking up with america and it is causing me heartache.
now more then ever i see myself in another place, another country, and i feel the longing for old friends but i feel the joy in new experiences.
i am not sure but i heard somewhere, and i think i agree, that our thoughts are a force, just like gravity>> that here, and everywhere, there is a lot more nothing the something and that our thoughts entirely shape our experience. i am working on seeing the future as a purely okay place. i don't expect a future without sorrow, but i also don't expect a future without joy. pure joy. the kind that makes you smile without your control and makes your body feel light and warm.
I am also going to work on using my thoughts in the more immediate future but that will take more practice i am sure.
i have been bursting at the seams with the need to spill everything that has been on my mind but there is so much talking i have to do, i don't think it would be fair to whoever i chose.
i'm in love with today. always.
