World politics


 I lied, this isn't about world politics it's a much shallower topic.

 Sometimes the entirety of the world lets you down, without fail. It hurts and it sucks and there really is no worse feeling then being left to your own devices when the world is looking at you like "what's wrong?"
  I find that the best way to deal with all of this disappointment is fiction. When all of your "friends" let you down I find turning to your fictional ones is the best option. They will never waiver.  They're plan, whether or not you agree with it, will not change. You can always count on them and their choices. They'll never stand you up, they won't move on without you, they're going to treat you the same, and that's a fact.

  Ted Mosby is always going to inspire me to believe there are still good guys out there, Larry Underwood is always going to illustrate the beauty of personal change, and  Newt Hoenikker will show me the sheer pointlessness of it all.

The Feeling

Yup, THAT feeling.

  Some days its a whole lot easier to share the good, rather then that bad. So here goes. I found a really cool new instrument I'm talking a beautiful, eclectic, crazy new beautiful piece of awesome in the world.
  I picked one up and played it at a local music store and I had The Feeling. Musicians chances are if you're reading this you're already noddding your heads saying, "Yeah man, I know that feel." For those of you without previous experience let me clarify; The Feeling is a magic warmth radiating from your soul to your finger tips and back again. Its an instant bond with an instrumenot because playing it is bringing you joy and, in some cosmic way, you know that it's bringing the instrument joy too.
  This magical instrument is called a dulcimer banjo and can be found in three and four string varieties. some people call them "strummin' sticks." I just call them magic.

That One Relationship

YOU KNOW THE ONE I'M TALKING ABOUT, RIGHT?

  It's that relationship that's awesome and amazing and great in the good times and then in the bad times things absolutely self destruct and instantaneously they turn on you and take out all their stress on you. The worst part from, at least in my world, is that since they're your friends they know exactly how to tear you down.
  I honestly wish I could give my no-existent readership some advice on the subject, but honestly there is no advice to give. These people will just continue to tear you down and then pretend it's not their fault. I guess you could pull away from them that's always an interesting option but the very sad an lonely truth is that "that one relationship" is not singular. "That one relationship" will happen far more often then any lasting or healthy connection especially in today's shallow society. 
  The best strategy is just to duck and remember its just them lashing out due to their own problems, this doesn't mean that every time that person freaks it isn't your fault, if you did something own up.

Hey society, why?

EXCUSE ME, SOCIETY? I JUST WANTED TO TELL YOU, YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG!!!

  So a friend of mine just got into a really bad accident, he was in the Intensive Care Unit, had a pretty bad skull fracture, and was in INCREDIBLY bad shape. I'm not saying this to whine there's a point to this particular pity party. I posted Facebook statuses about his condition, keep in mind he's a local kid and most of my friends know him, they would get a few likes, maybe a comment or two, but no extensive amount of care was shown. 
  On one of the last days my friend was in the hospital I posted a status that included the weight I had lost due to stress, that status got 5 likes and got 5 comments besides my own, mostly because the girl had no idea anything had happened. 
  Today, since my friend is home, I posted a status about how annoyed I was about TOMS and BOBS shoes. That status got no less then 3 likes and 6 comments from several people in the first hour. 
  What is going on?!?! People jump on the bandwagon for something as superficial as brands of shoes, but don't show their support for a local kid, a friend who was hurt?  
  It makes me absolutely sick to think that everyone is more concerned about the brand of shoes and their respective knockoffs then they are with a guy who has never said a mean word to anyone and was fighting for his life at one point. Why can't we take a moment to care a little more, I just spent almost a week sitting in waiting rooms, watching bad TV, and helping out his family in anyway I could and this guy and I aren't dating! I just wanted to support someone I care for and to help out a family that's been nothing but kind to me, why doesn't anyone else care that way these days?

United We...Stand or Stood?


      I find myself deep in thought recently, perhaps because of the recent class debate. I am frustrated. I don't mean to rant, but hell it's my blog so I shall rant all I want. This country frightens me! We have been so bent on fighting terrorists we haven't paid enough attention to our own country and the internal terrorism we are facing!
      We are the people and we are supposed to form our government, but its become a broken system in which, the people are simply mindless cogs. Why are the people afraid of their government? We out number them, by quite a bit. Why can't we fight back? Our government is making choices that will send us into a crash. 
      Currently, America has just published an act called "Sustaining U.S. Global Leadership: priorities for 21st century defense" this plan states we are pulling out of The Middle East only to jump China. CHINA OWNS US! The government is setting all of us up for a fall and we'll be the ones taking all the damage.
      I want nothing more then to stand together, how about you?

Welcome, to the biggest show of hypocrisy in history.
