My elder bro, Dave, was so cute today. After dinner, suddenly he asked my dad, "Damn, why do people like to go for wars? Can't they stop this shit?"
I was like rolling my eyes. I mean, that question is asked for thousands of millions of times. We all know the answer to that - people don't like to go for wars, but they can't help it sometimes.
If I were a peasant earning peanuts (maybe not even peanuts) starving day and night and living in a country where people are always having riots, what's the value of my life?
If I wasn't who I am right now, riding on a good life, wanting to have a career and everything, I wouldn't be feeling enthuasiastic about waking up the next day because... it's the same thing isnt it? Wake up, suffer. My life is worthless. Of course, if I suddenly dream of an inspirational thing and want to make it big on my own, I can try. But to make it big, I need the basic things to succeed. I need something. But if I was the person in this situation, I had NOTHING. No jobs, no peace, no support, no nothing. All day, I can dream about getting world peace, but not in a million years will I get it, because my future generations will still suffer.
I feel sad for those helpless people. They just have no hope. Hope is what you are living for, but sorry, there is no fucking hope. I would go for war. Life is full of shit, if I were one of those people.
So yes... suddenly my family is having a debate. I joined it of course. My dad and Dave were talking about 9/11 and wars and etc, talked about Hitler and everything. I love it when we have all these. I learn a lot about other people and their plights etc. I worry, and I think about them. I know nothing I can do to help them, but at least I know about what they are going through. I'm quite happy that my parents are well-informed about all these. We are allowed to discuss and we are generally not patriotic or stupid to follow the media and "facts".
I look at myself as an Earthling. No point of me thinking as myself as an Australian and be too patriotic to myself because when I die, we'll all go to the same destination. Blacks, whites, purples, we're all earthlings. Too sorry about the inequality of it all. We don't know what we're born into until we grow up and see all these things.
I am not interested in political talks. Most of them are bullshit. Everyone is corrupted. Not many leaders are leading the countries and sometimes they are just figureheads. The countries may be having wars, but the leaders, who knows, they have the silver spoons and they're living a great life, because they don't really have conscience. If I were a politician, taking bribes and eating citizen's money, I wouldn't be living a good life tormented by my ugly actions, but hey, some humans really have no hearts!
Violence is everywhere. I generally keep away from the newspapers to have an update of the world. Friends are there for a reason, eh? Media is controlled. Media is fake. Who knows if leaders pay millions to manipulate the public. Media is made to influence. I generally like to hear things firsthand, from the people itself. That's why I have friends from in and out of countries, black or white, yellow. They tell you the truth. A lot of people are brainwashed by what the media says.
Of course I have my fair share of media influence. I wasn't into thinness until I was influenced. I just hope I am not gonna be brainwashed again.
World peace can never be achieved unless people want it and really really want it and work towards it. Also sacrificing material needs and etc.
Violence. Happy Tree Friends freak me out. Kids should never see this. I thought the cartoon was innocent... like others. Suddenly I was exposed with such. Cheeez, I am duped by my friends. Who would have thought those cuties were so gruesome!
What counts as sadistic? I laugh at those tv shows where people will fall and etc. But nothing to like murders, killing of others and abuse. That is sick. People don't really value lives, eh?
Are wars just predictable and accepted these days? Do people really are for it?
Wars are pointless. In the end they just signed treaties like they could just forget how many lives were lost before. How pointless! Worst, they are fighting over different CORRECT views on the same matter. I can say that the glass is full of water and you can say that the glass is not empty! I want things my way and you want things your way. And then we fight. Over what? Over the same CORRECT thing with different intrepetations. Oh golly gosh. Let me let out a big big sigh.
Being realistic, this is not a good time to produce a future generations. What for, if those hot and hunky brawns are sent to fight for wars, FOR NOTHING? People die. I don't want my son to die. I want no bloodshed. Not surprising, for this girl who's scared of falling and hurting herself. I don't ride a bicycle because I know I will have to fall.
Al said, "Mands, you're weird. I fall so many times. How can you be scared of falling? Blood? What's there to be scared of? I always see blood."
Blood. Pain. Cycling. Fall.
Okay, after two hours, they are still debating. I'm gonna join them and say out my two cents.
