Where have they all gone?
I'll start this off by saying that I should probably stop reading books, they fill my mind with things that I wish for, and incite my imagination to the point that reality is sometimes blurred. What happened to all the traditions and characteristics of our ancestors? I swear as much as I love technology, I despise it just as much. Why is it that when someone says they love someone today, they are immediately questioned on their honesty and pummeled with antagonism. Has the world really taken such a turn? Have parents really let TV raise their kids, and neglected to tell them stories of love and heroism? No wonder there are so many problems in schools today. It's as if people have lost their ideals, and are not willing to sacrifice their convenience for the beliefs of our past. I cannot fully understand the world today as it is, and that is irritating. My only comfort is in knowing that I am not alone, as I am sure that my ancestors longed for the days of theirs. I believe that it is an instinct to want to go back to one's roots, to where it all began. Maybe it is just plain futile to look at the world as I want it to be, because people are not going to change. There will always be those who think themselves higher than the rest of us, and there will always be those who believe that there is something worth fighting for, even if all the fighting in the world is in vain. All I know is we all have our purpose, and some of us are bound for greatness. I hope it's you. I hope it's me, too.
