The vortex
Everyone is in a vortex. Has anyone ever wondered what the purpose of life is? Or why we are on this planet that is getting more and more polluted each year?
I begin to wonder how we could possibly be the most intelligent species in the galaxy.. there is no way.. These are people who elected George W Bush back into office, and think that Gordon Campbell is actually a nice guy.
Give me a break..
I'm so sick of the death, destruction, devistation and disintigration of life and everything around us. Cant anything good happen in the world?
We all live in a bubble- a vortex- that sucks our heads beneath the ground like an ostrich.. pretending that if we dont look things might actually get better or disapear entirely.
But it wont..
Ghandi once said.. "We must be the change that we see in the world." What he meant was if one person can change the world, it can be you.. and you can change it one person at a time.. This is my optimistic thought for the day..
There has got to be more to life than this. The thought of me never becoming a teacher, or never being active or there never been change.. it scares the shit out of me..
I had a dream last night that i was still hanging out with my friends from 3 years ago. They were as boring as ever~ constantly wanted to watch Big Brother or American Idol on the boobtube~ and i remember not being able to talk.. but just stare at them. The only thing i did was get thinner while they got fatter.. I was constantly running around the room, trying to get their attention..
Then i woke up and realized that i dont have those sucky people in my life anymore, and that i dont have to put up with any crap from anyone anymore. And i smiled.. A huge, happy smile.. and i realized i have a man I love and adore. A family who loves me (but is still pretty selfish) and other awesome friends who appreciate my good and bad attributes. And then i thought the world wasnt so bad afterall..
Course there are so many bad things/people in the world that i dont know were to put my faith. I have friends who tell me to rely on God. I have others who tell me to rely on myself. I have faith in myself.. because i have lost it in mankind. This is not to say that i wouldnt help someone if they needed it.. but rather, people both intregue and petrify me..
And that is an interesting thought..
