Pointless Rant with no Actual Topic


Responsibility is going to soon come crashing down on me. It is soon going to be time to break the seal of ignorance and what ever innocents that still remains. I have sheltered myself for so long and I'm not ready to let goof what ever it is I'm holding on to. I know what goes on and how how life works. I choose to ignore it and let everyone think I still believe that the world can be a beautiful place. If only that were true. I know how it is though, I'm aware that the world has so much beauty but most of it has a fenced slapped around it and you have to pay a man to enjoy what was put here naturally. What was said before about the world having the ability to be beautiful still has some truth. That s does not mean it will be though. If the hole in our hearts, left by greed ever goes away that would be a start. Unfortunately for us, that hoe only grows as time passes. I'm afraid it's to late for us. When we're gone so will be the word humanity and what ever meaning there is behind it. Although, I believe it is going to disappear long before we do. To whatever happens when we end, to what ever life forms walk this planet after us, I hope that what ever word or noise they use that is equivalent to "humanity" will die with them and not before them.
