World War III

The destruction, the murder, the violence happening in Gaza today is not an attack on a group of people I cannot associate myself with. On the smallest level they are Arabs, then they are Muslims and finally but most importantly they are HUMAN BEINGS. They have been robbed of everything and now they are being murdered and destroyed with the idea of self-defense. Do tanks need to defend themselves against pebbles? For all people in the world being murdered, oppressed and terminated, this is not simply a war against you, but against all of us. A war against humanity, for every child that is slaughtered is a calamity of immense proportions. It is a shame on us and our legacies.

Israel: Stop this bloodshed. You are stronger than your opponent, and the murder of those children is too much of a burden. Please stop, you have displayed your strength, and it has been recognized. But your strength will not be measured by your weapons, and with every child and innocent that is killed by your hand is a loss of your humanity, and a loss of your identity, and build up of your tyranny. Stop denying the Palestinians their right to existence.

Hamas: Have mercy on the people of Palestine. You are fighting a war you cannot win and the casualties of this war are the very people you claim to protect. There can be no success in this path. Let the Palestinians find peace, so that they may grow and strengthen, and become beneficial for everyone. They cannot do this, they cannot concentrate, and they cannot improve themselves while they are trying to avoid murder and death. The best thing you can do is STOP.

Gaza: May God make these times pass quickly for you, and may He lighten the burdens that you and your children are forced to bear.

Fact of Life #1

The majority of the people in the world are ignorant. There exists a handful of intelligent ones. These intelligent people spend their lives thinking of ways to attempt to save the ignorant people from destroying each other and the planet.

Changes

Sometimes something happens like a chance encounter that changes your entire outlook on life. I was upset before, over things that don't seem so important. My heart feels something now. I saw a light. This doesn't make any sense to me and I wish someone can help me make sense of it all. I just feel like all the problems are gone, but my heart hurts in an absolutely new direction. I don't like it when i feel this way and would rather just forget. But it helps me forget all the other stupid things I worry about. This writing seems aimless and maybe somewhere hidden in it there is a meaning, a point, a direction. I hope it is obvious to someone and they can explain it to me, or let me know they get it, and actually do.

More shoes

I find it fascinating that you can get TWO years for insulting a foreign leader in Iraq. Maybe the guy should be asked to be handed over to the US military. He wont have to worry about jail time, just a little bid of good old fashioned waterboarding. Thanks a lot Dick Cheney. No really..... Thank you.

Shoes

Since when is it a crime to throw a shoe at someone, if i threw my shoe at you, would i get arrested and detained.
or what if bush threw the shoe back at him, now wouldn't that be something. And what a cocky mother fucker, going on a fucking victory lap. What fucking victory? You killed your man, Saddam, found no weapons, and then tortured people and you have the balls to parade around them in victory. People hate you, don't you get it, the worst president EVER. This isn't a joke. You suck and inspire hatred and anger. I actively look for intelligence when it comes to you to give you the benefit of the doubt. But how can a man be so blind? You even had to sign a document that protects you from being prosecuted for war crimes. You self-centered douche.
Learn to read, asshole.

...and when i saw her, I knew she was the person I was going to marry

How many times have you heard that from a "happily" married man? It is good to have the ability to see someone and know you will marry them, but seriously, how did you know? How many times that day did you say that about someone else? This is just the one it worked out with. Good for you though homie.

Happiness

The opposite of happiness is not sadness, but boredom.

I am bored.

Inner Purity

Nobody has ever changed the outside without looking inside first and changing that. We are surrounded by shit, pure and simple. Things just seem to suck. We can worry about it. We can complain about it. We can blame others. We can wait for change.

Or we can take the opportunity to look inside, and to improve ourselves, aspire to greatness within our hearts. Through that inner change, that inner purification, our environment, our surroundings, will follow suit. The power is in our hands, but we cannot force the world, the only control we have is over ourselves. We have no control over our situations, just ourselves, and we need to take a good look inside if we ever hope for change.

God Bless.

Intelligence

Intelligence is not a function of Education; but rather a function of contemplation.
