I understand that in order to keep people safe, we sometimes have to suffer a few inconveniences but this no liquids no gels on a plane thing is bordering on paranoia. Try as we might I honestly don't think that we will ever be completely safe. Sure, this might reduce the chances of a mass murder-suicide and could potentially save lives but they are just going to find another way to do things. Minor inconvenience for us, minor inconvenience for them. The only way to mitigate this particular risk is to do away with it altogether but getting rid of air travel is ridiculous.
Seriously, why is it so hard for us to all get along?
Oh wait, I'm no saint either. But that doesn't mean I'm going to kill a bunch of strangers just to try to prove a point. I just avoid the people I don't like. I don't understand people who try to impose their opinions onto other people. If we all thought the same way, then there would be no such thing as an opinion and life would be boring. The thing that is great about the world is having all of these different cultures everywhere. What would be the point in visiting another country if it was just like your own except for maybe the weather is different or something. Imagine what the world would be like today if one crazy man/superpower (Constantine, Alexander, Atilla, Genghis Khan, Hitler) were to actually succeed in world domination. Having a unified globe might sound like a united something, but it wouldn't work. It's all of these differences that make us all unique. Not to say that we couldn't have all of those different cultures under the same rule or religion even, but I doubt that this is what the terrorists are trying to accomplish. I see this as a narrow-minded, ignorant, immature, desperate cry for attention. A two year old temper tantrum.
...and I also wanted to take this opportunity to point out that my figurative heart isn't working anymore. I mean literally it doesn't we know but also my emotional heart. He killed something in me and now even guys I normally would go for, I feel nothing for. Not even a little bit. It's like I have no feelings and no will to pursue or to be pursued. I'm over him as a person, but I fear that in my efforts I might have pushed it a little too far and now I don't know how to go back. I don't really know what it is. It's like I've just shut down the feelings switch and it's broken. Maybe something in me is afraid that the rush of any emotional attachment will be too similar to how I felt for him and I don't want to be reminded of him. Maybe I don't want to go through this again. Maybe I'm afraid that I won't be able to feel that way ever again. Maybe I'm not over him? I feel like I've come to terms with the person he is and I don't want him in my life now, but it doesn't change how I felt at the time. I always knew from day one what he was like, but I chose to ignore it, I put it all aside because it didn't matter to me how he was to strangers. I only cared about how he was with me. The first time I ever saw him I thought to myself, he's trouble stay far far away, do NOT fall for him. But I did. I think it hurts more realizing that I was right about him and wrong to let him get to me. I just don't know who to trust anymore, I can't even trust my own judgement.
