Well folks, another year has gone and a new one is here. 2002 was such an insane year, everything that could have gone wrong has and everything that has could have gone right has as well. We live in a screwed up world, and things aren't looking much better for us humans. I mean, we keep making the same mistakes over and over politically, emotionally, and just in human nature. History does repeat itself, we do keep making the same mistakes over and over again. It doesn't have to be this way though, things can change only if you want it to change. You have to get your ideas out there, discuss things with people. Instead of talking about some stupid class talk to someone about life and death, if there is an afterlife, debate abortion,the death penalty, and our nations future. This may sound like something none of us do, but it is something we should do much more often. Break out of your little world that we all live in and see the big picture. There are millions upon millions of people in this world and ecah and every one of them has the chance to change the world. If you think you don't matter, you are dead wrong. Every person no matter how large or small can make a differance at least in one persons life. Do you think that great people were just born great? No, they were made great by adversity and those around them. Everyone needs to start somewhere, and it always starts with the people they are surrounded by. Like it or not, you have an affect on another human beings life, you may not realize it but you do. One event can change your life, or one event can chage another persons life. Think about it. You know someone has an affect on you no matter how hard you want them not to, you do care how people see you. We are such a shallow people, no matter how hard we want to deny it we think about ourselves a hell of a lot more than we think of others. We look out for ourselves more than we should. Every single person I have ever met has had the chance to stop something bad from happenning to another person, but didn't take the chance for one reason or another. Granted, we are not perfect.....far from it and proud of it, but the fact that a small gesture could have made a differance for someone and we didn't do a damn thing upsets me. I think it upsets me because I know I have done it too, and even the best people I know have done it. We are human, it is in our nature. We can't change human nature......unfortunately. Well 2003 is here and I think I am going to make a new years resolution for the first time ever.........I am going to be me........and it's gonna be hard.
