Do you know what bugs me? I am tired of people loosing priority. My self especially. When you ask yourself what is the most important thing to you, what is your answer? Is it sports, is it playing, is it friends, religion, and etc... I am not sure what the most important thing to me is right now, but I know the most important thing should be. I think that it is the other people around us. We neglect those around us so often. We are thoughtless of their feelings and we are forgetful of their want and needs. They are what really matter. We spend so much time wishing we were somewhere else or wanting to know about the celestial cosmos. We look so much at what is around us that we loose sight of who is around around us. We need to look to them first. We need to see them for who they are and try and help them best we can. Mankind with all its intellect and knowledge cannot free ourselves from our worst vices. We are continually making life harder for those around us and therefore making life harder for ourselves. Why do we do that? What driving force is so powerful that it causes us to be greedy and forget those we love and those who need help? I am definitely a sufferer from these problems of man. If everyone could forget themselves as an individual and remember themselves as a race of all man and all creation the world would never be the same. We would not have wars. We would not have hunger. We would not have the pain of suffering earth beneath our feet. We ask ourselves why the Lord would let such things happen, and why there is evil in the world. What we should ask is why does man let such things happen? Why cant we ascend to a level of living where we see the earth and its resources not as mine but as ours? When will we stop causing the pain and the suffering of others for the momentary pleasure of ourselves? When will we forget ourselves and see humanity.

Just Love
Have you ever been way over protective of someone? You don't mean to its just that someone you love has been hurt, and you suddenly feel that you need to make sure that they never get hurt again no matter how serious (or unserious) the original injury was? I feel that I need to do that. I know that it probably wont help and it might even make things worse but it is so scary when someone you love is either in danger or just out of danger. It feels like no matter what you do nothing will help and you have no control. I feel bad when I do this. It just makes things harder for both people and then they just feel like you are trying to control their lives but you aren't trying to control their lives, you are trying to protect their lives. Trying to protect the life that means everything to you. You don't even want to change that life you just want to take out the parts of their life that can hurt them, and even then you don't want to do that it just feels that unless it does go away you will never rest easy, but of course you probably will never rest easy anyway. Something can always hurt and someone can always be hurt. We all are in danger, so I guess what I am trying to say is that the best thing for people to do in a situation like this is just love and always be there to help them stand up when they have fallen, help them do what they really want to do and love them for it.
Sorry if this seems out of whack and hard to understand. I was just saying what came to my head and most of the time what comes to my head doesn't make to much sense.

Graduated!!!
Well I graduated. That's pretty cool. It so long and I wish that I could have worked harder. I would have done a lot lot better if I would have just applied myself and then maybe I would get a scholarship to a good university, but with how things are I will just have to work harder. I can do it though. I have to show people that I can get things done and I can do them well. I feel that people don't really have faith in me when it comes to that. They don't think that I will do a good job on my own even if I am capable. Anyway I guess that I will just have to show them what I can do, and one day I know that I will be able to look back and say that I did good and that I have done what I can to make my family happy and content because in the end, that is all that truly matters, that your family is safe and at peace. Well I have to go now. I have some other things I would like to blog but that will probably be at a later date.
