As I awake each day...

I ponder this world's social structure. Who defines where a certain person "belongs" or "fits in"? Is it based on their actions? Their looks? Their speech? (I could create a never-ending list, but I won't, as not to bore you.) In all actuality everyone creates society. Everyone has discriminatory thoughts, about someone, or something (whether you like it or not.) No person is perfect and without a blemished mind. It's our stereotypical nature that places different people into different "categories," if you will.
Yet, each day, I wonder where this world is heading, not that each and every person or thing is a negative presence on this Earth. I worry for tomorrow's children who are born into a world of destruction, loathe and sorrow. (Don't take me wrong- of course there are many beauties and wonders in people or in nature upon this wretched planet traveling into an unknown distant universe.) It saddens me to think that there is so much displeasure, sin and that there are so many things that are wrong in the world. I wish sometimes, and I wonder if I or someone could change it, and other times, I know I can't, nor can any other person of worldly value.
I write this, in the hopes that each one of you takes joy with each moment you have, each time you take a breath- realize that each breath is a gift, for some people unfortunately, the breath they just took was their last. NEVER forget to make the very best of the time you have, live not in future- only looking forward to what tomorrow may bring, because tomorrow is NEVER promised, nor is the next minute. As we shouldn't live in the past, dwelling on mistakes we wish we could have changed, it done, it's over, let it go. Memories are wonderful, never lose them, but don't live in a time that's gone.
This is a cruel world, yet there are MANY people that have such love, compassion and hope, I hope they inspire you to feel the same and never give in to life's struggles.
