just a thought.

fear is everything wrong with the world. now, most people think it's the total opposite, and that it's all to do with power, but i can't help but disagree. why is there wars? cause countries are so stricken by fear that they'll get invaded that they decided instead of being a reasonable human being and talking about it, they send out troops to blow everyone else up just like the games they used to play as a kid, except now the guns and bullets certainly aren't plastic. why do we buy all these useless material items and designer purses? cause we're fearful that we won't fit in, that we won't be liked or simply cause we're fearful that we won't be happy unless we have all our little toys, uber flashy multitasking cellphones and vehicles to keep us distracted by all the boredom enveloping us in our daily routine. we gossip cause we have this fear that others are cooler or intimidating and we are afraid of having an uncomfortable silence not filled with mindless chatter. we drink cause we're scared we won't have any fun without it and we're scared some other slightly more intoxicarted girl will get to the guy we have our eye on quicker. some get married cause there's fear that there won't be anyone better or they can't make it on their own finacially, then divorce cause they're scared that they are missing out on all the fun and on someone else who would love them more. we lie out of fear, we give up on amazing opportunities cause of fear and we quit and give up cause of fear. there's nothing wrong with fear, it's natural instinct even in nature, unless you let it take over you and make irrational decisions. then it's totally not okay, at all. blech, i hate writing some of these thoughts of mine at times cause i seem like those old ladies who write for low budget local community papers and have absolutly nothing worthwhile to say, but have to have a new article every week. oh well. if you actually read of all this, well i think you are a very great person and i invite  you to be my best friend if you so wish. if not, well, maybe that was a good decision on yout part. being my best freind is kind of a strenuous job. alrighty, bye.

Wise thoughts from our Canadian neighbors (although I don't believe in Nations!).
