BE the change you wish to see...


I'm just like any other teeanger trying to get by every challenge i am faced with. giving my life a purpose, i just hate the thought of being here just beacause. i know it might sound so bullshitty but i will go ahead and say it anyways, i really do want to make a difference. not just sit around and be okay with the way things are. there are endless things fucked up in this world. many things that can be changed. and even the smallest things WE do count. you have probably heard this before but we can all REALLY make a difference. obviously you alone cannot change the world --- but hopefully someone will see your acts and might be so inspired by what you are doing that they might start doing things differently too.
many people (like some of my teachers) say i just have too much attitude and that i've got to change that. but of course they just want me to eat up all the bullshit they feed me, of course I am the rebel,the outcast, im the one with no education; for trying to do things right. when we challenge what we have been told is correct- it turns into a big deal. they think they have it all figured out. so when they see a little independant thinking...its all the tv, all the internet, the videogames and rock music that is messing us up; that we are just trying to stand out, its just a desperate measure for attention. but i sure dont care what they think or say. when Columbus said the world was not flat, he was ridiculed. when a new theory is revealed, when the truth is revealed, at first it is ridiculed but afterwards it is accepted. we are just so damn closed minded we leave no space for change.
