We have failed...
A new year is almost upon us, most people see New Years as a time where they could start over, better themselves in many ways; lost weight, be nicer, save money, etc. I too, once saw this time as "turning over a new left", but now, as I become older and see the world in a different realm, I see this as a time to say that regardless of what you do in 2006, we have failed.
Bold statement for a bold thought; why? Cause I see the world getting worse and worse no matter what people "plan" on doing new in the new year. I was sitting talking to Koop (http://lilkoop.blogspot.com) about his recent post. He stating, in a quick version, that the world is going nuts, and I 100% agree. I wake up everyday to news of murder, I go to sleep hearing about family troubles and hardships. Through the day, random phone conversations about unhealthy children and overweight parents. I see parents not parenting their own children, hearing from my girlfriend that parents are working so much that they have hired nannies to take care of their children. Little kids throwing fits in stores cause they didn't get something and the parents not doing anything about it. And you know what.....???
The same thing is going to happen next year, and the year after that, so on and so on. The world is changing and I for one do not like what is going on; sure its easy for someone who doesn't see my view to say "Why don't you change it"; but due to the corruption of various systems, I am in no position to do so, and if I was, more than likely I wouldn't see the world like I see it now. The the head of a snake is evil, then this whole body is.
I guess every generation has gone through what my current one is facing now, and honestly, as humans, we still haven't learned, nor will we ever. From going to war for multiple reasons that not even our president knows, to the economy going to hell, to even Canada giving the thumbs up for "group sex". Is the world just throwing moral's, laws, rules, and common sense out the window?
Why can't they see it? Why can't they see why we shouldn't? Why? Cause the cycle of failing is in continuous motion.

Wait, Canada gave thumbs up to group sex????? WTF am I still doing here, I'm goin to Canada ya'll!!!
Your steppin all on my brain waves man...its kinda scary how whenever I end up thinkin about somethin, you write about it here...heres my take...
I understand where your comin from and I generally say the same thing...the world is going to hell. But then I heard this quote from Mr. Mahatma Ghandi...
"Be the Changes you want to see in the World."
All I can say is be you and do you as best you can. Stay true to yourself and shield your family/friends from all the crap out there and your world will change.
You've seen my list of new years resolutions...i got like 10. One of them is to lose weight. Me losing 30-40lbs due to a lifestyle change may impact other overweighters that I know. Then they can imact the overweighters they know...thus creating that ripple effect (cause we overweighters never eat alone!). I believe, like Ghandi, if i can make changes to myself and affect the people around me, then the world will change. Maybe not the world entirely but the world around me (family/friends) as I know it.
Just thoughts...kinda long. Hope it all makes sense...I started at 7AM but tha brain kicks in at around 8 :). Peace and love to all.
well, yeah the world seems to be slowly going to hell in a handbasket. but a question is how much can the world take before it breaks and starts to make changes? on a world-wide level, we might not be doing that great. But individually, i think we're all improving. it's just take some time for our individual success turns into a group success. soon, i think. we'll go through worse before good comes in. but keep hope alive, bruh.
Me.
happy new year to you, man...nice blog.
