so its basically the new year and nothing feels different. theres gunna be explosions in the sky but nothing down here on earth. its still gunna be the same old same old here. the new year brings no change except people deciding to change their ways. we all make "new year's resolutions, goals, w.e" but nothing of it ever happens. we never actually stick to our decisions and inevitably revert to our old ways. we say shit and but dont back it up with action. words arent worth a damn thing without action. you say you want peace but youre not out there trying for it no youre preaching to the choir and thats it. cause its not gunna happen on its own it takes effort and time and it makes you have to get up off your lazy ass and do work but no one wants to. we quote people and we yell at people but it gets us no where. once there was a time before when people were actual do-ers and they got out there and fought for what they believed in. they didnt take no for an answer and they tried every damn day of their life to get things to be the way they are today and you we take it all for granted. we dont respect these people, we laugh in their faces and they roll over in their graves when we disregard everything they stood for. people who had passions to do something that didnt care for money but for the purity of living and breathing and being blessed to be here. no today we sit and we complain about our 9 to 5 jobs but it makes us the money that makes our world go 'round. now anyone who doesnt make the money but does what they love isnt even considered as a respectable person but those are the real people i respect. people who dont care if they make a million dollars or a dollar a year. they want to make their art, music, poetry, books, and all. they want to do what they dream to do and they go out and do it and thats what i respect. people who fight for their way of life. they dont try to bring anyone down but bring everyone up to the same level, they want peace and harmony and freedom. some say you cant have peace and freedom but its true that we can. we can be free to speak our mind do as we want and such but with respect we shouldnt bring others down and then there is peace. peace is easy live and let live. i guess i contradict myself through out this but its all true it takes time to understand cause i might just not think like you but thats okay. sometimes it takes differences to bring us together. discussion and inquisitiveness pure curiosity with no intent to harm. respect for yourself and others and the world around you. to understand that everyone isnt carbon copies of each other and stand for different things. we're independent souls that need different nourishing. we get what we can from each other but it takes looking inside yourself to truly see the light. i could be showing my ignorance on the world but im okay with that cause i know that i have to be ignorant and i have to flaunt my ignorance for someone to slap my face and tell me so to teach me my mistake and i'll learn from it. cause keeping quiet does no one any good so i speak my mind and i learn from that and the wrong things i say i someday will turn into the right. but really its my opinion and i may not have the same as your opinion which is completely fine. but if i try to persuade you and yell at you and such without giving you a chance to make me understand where you come from then that is ignorance. so keep me from being ignorant.
