Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Remember how it used to be. You had no care in the world. You were young and naive. You knew there was a thing called war. But you had no idea it was such hell, no idea that it could have been stopped before it started, countless lives could have been saved by the man elected leader.
We had no idea people were shot on the streets, stores were robbed and their keepers were killed for nothing more than a small amount of cash or items. We had no idea what racism was, how people hurt each other because of colored skin, how greed could kill, how alcohol could make people around you hurt other people and themselves.
WE didn't know that one day we could wake up and the world would be over a meteor could hit earth, an earthquake could make my house fall on me, a crazed man could break in the house and slit my throat, a kid could snap and bring a shotgun to school shooting everyone in it, one or more of my friends could drink and drive into something, or just speed and lose control (in memory of Wayne Shultz-15 years old, and Anthony Plaubec-18 years old)and what most people dislike most school/work.
All this is pressing down on us, a huge burden on all our backs. Most of us knew nothing or very little of all this at one point in our childhood. We were happy, nothing was wrong with the world, at least to our knowledge. And then there came a point where we all of a sudden realized that the world wasn't such a friendly place, and at that point we may have died a little inside, but what I did was instead of looking at the bad of the world I looked for the good. Some things like the good will organization, police (even though some can be bad), the Red Cross, world relief fund, or just a simple person that reaches out to another person and helps them out. Be that person that helps with one of those organizations or reaches out to other people and helps them. (If you want to add something to this pls do so, I'm always up for constructive criticism but plz keep it to a level where it isn't cruel...)


That's my message and if you want to help change the world just a little and you have a website or myspace. I encourage you to copy and paste this on your site. Make changes as you see fit but keep the message the same.

Oh and nothing makes me more p.o.ed when people take credit for what they weren’t the ones to do. If you post this on your site you don't have to give me credit but plz don't take it as your own.
