THE WORLD




I've worked it out. The world is screwed. That's right, not stuffed up, not wrong, not heading in a slightly wrong general direction but seriously utterly screwed.

How can the world not be, when the USA is in a nuclear stand off with Iran, and its the 5th item on the news. And not even everyone knows about it. How can the world not be screwed when every 10th teenager is slitting their wrists? When at least a 5th of the world is suffering from depression? When it becomes the norm for young kids and teens to take drugs and to get drunk because its "their time of experimentation". And since when did it become ok for kids to makeout randomly, because they feel like it. Or for people to blow up buildings to make a point. For porn to be so wide spread and the viewing of it acceptable. For weapons of mass destruction to be used as threats, for one country to feel it can control the world. For politics to be so stuffed up, for murder and rape and theft and everything else to be a normal part of society.

This is not the world I want to grow up in. This is not the world I want my kids to live in. To not feel safe to walk in the streets. To worry about what you say and do, so you cant be sued. To feel so helpless and to not be able to do anything to change the world.

Sigh. Since when did 5 year olds need to see psychiatrists? And 10 year olds need to have a boyfriend/girlfriend? And teenagers needing to lose their virginity before their twenty, otherwise their uncool.

Since when were life situations made on the choice of being cool or not? You know, lets all get pissed once a month cause its fun. Even though alcohol is a poison. Its quite likely to stuff my liver up by the time I'm thirty. And to give me brain damage. But that doesn't matter. Because we had a good time.

Or lets slit our wrists and go around complaining that they are depressed because their friends hate them or their relationship broke up. Because there aren't people in this world who are worse off.

Then of course its cool to get stoned because everyone else it. Cause it wont permanently damage your brain. And it wont stop you from growing to your full potential.

And of course, the human psyche is the key to it all. Because everything is someone's fault. Because everything can be pinpointed to someone else. Because nothing happens for a reason anymore. Because nobody is willing to listen. Nobody wants to listen. Nobody cares anymore.

So what. I can sit here and bitch and complain and whine like other people. Say how its not fair, and never do anything about it. Well guess what. Watch out. Cause when I can, I'm going to do something about it, with a vengeance.

Well Until Next Time where I once again use my amazing brain powers to reveal something else completely unknown. Not....
