User blog:Jack Goldwrecker./There Is A Better Land

I can not help but wonder where this world his headed to. I am lost when I attempt to comprehend why we, humans, brothers and sisters alike, can be so cruel, arrogant, and dangerous to each other. This is a world covered by clouds of darkness and pain and hostility. I hope for a sun in a better land, a sun that will shine down and make us rejoice in ourselves, a sun that will bring to my pained soul, faith in humanity, in which I have to confess to you, my dear brothers and sisters, that I almost have lost. While I can stand, while I can breathe, while I can see, I will do everything that my weak body can do, but only to an extent. Please, brothers and sisters alike, regardless of your religion, race, nationality, beliefs, gender, and sexuality, let us all walk hand in hand to a better land; a land that is not covered with hatred, loneliness, and cruelty.

Life is short, life can be enjoyed, my friends. Put away your materials: your iPods, your laptops, your money, your food, your hobbies, and even your books. The sky is only blue for a short time. The sun is shining on a schedule that is running short. What a wonderful world it is that we live in, but alas, look what we make of it! So much controversy! Just say one nice thing, won't you, my true friends? Nothing is good nor bad, only our judgement makes it so. Not one soul is ugly, everyone is beautiful. What right does anyone have to say, "Look there! What a dweeb!" or "Look, he's so ugly." Only when we apply our filter of judgement is something good or bad. Don't be torn down by what you think, for that is what destroys us.

I don't come to say this as if to preach, to act as if I know more about life, or to act arrogant, but rather to ask each and every one of you to fulfill my dream to the best of your ability; come together, unite, and make peace.

Life is what you make of it. Don't waste it.
