Come Full Circle

It's important to study history so it doesn't repeat itself.

How is it then that things "come full circle"? In the last 30-40 years we have fought wars abroad and here at home, but what have learned?

Honestly.....not that much!

We have made progress and by progress I mean we, as a nation, have become more tolerant.

Tolerant isn't what we should be 40 years later. We need to be Accepting. Have we learned

nothing from fighting for civil rights?

People need to remember that we came here to relieve ourselfs from persecution. "We the People" have rights that seperated by Church and State. Do NOT bring religion into politics or government!

We need to be appreciative for what we have and stop using up our natural resources.

When are we going to be at peace? When are we going to stop the wars?

It doesn't really look all that different, right?

It is time for CHANGE!

It is time to "Make Love Not War" and bring our troops home!

Seriously

Somehow I magically decided to grow some balls and actually tell my dad how I really felt about him. Naturally my words that were tied with anger and biterness didn't come off as sweet and endearing as I had intended. I know as a close family if one person is conflicted the whole clan is, kinda like the plague. But, if I had mentioned that I didn't want to "taint" anyone's image of you, why would you in turn read my words to them? Now I am sure the rest of the "clan" has this foul taste in their mouth about me.....and thus, the plague has begun to spread!

I am pretty sure I came across as a selfish, cry baby adult, throwing a temper tantrum because I need attention. FUCK!

That's not what I am at all! I don't care you and my mom got divorced......thank god you did! My mom would not be the strong and independant woman that I admire if you were married. Anything that happened that caused the divorce is none of business, wheather you committed adultry or not. Even if you didn't, your emotional affair was enough for my mom to leave you and feel hurt and betrayed. The point of me even talking about your divorce was because that same hurt and betrayed feeling she felt was something I went through later on. I really don't know why that is significant, maybe I was just looking for an apology from you and that would somehow represent an apology from him and make it alright. Anyway.....my point is.....I don't really have a point.....this is just me venting.

No wait.....the point is......you weren't apart of my life, you didn't make the effort, you place 'blame' (which is a bad word....'responsibility'? IDK) for not making the same effort.....but c'mon you can't really expect a child to chase after their parent and say "be involved in my life" "ask where I'm going and who I'm going with" "please but it whenever possible" "please make me communicate with you openly so when I get in trouble later on I can come to you for advice" ......NO! No kid wants their parents to involved, that's the parents job to come in and BE THE PARENT.....open the door to communication, because children don't know how to do that if you don't lead by example. I wish I could take my words back and just leave them pushed under the rug. I wish you would grow a pair and realize that this was between you and I. I know for me to expect that you wouldn't share this with your wife is a lot to ask for, but to share with my brother and sisters.....seriously? Its so weird that death can give you this moment of weakness where you feel that you should just tell people how you feel about them and "live life to the fullest" and you make these rash decisions that later you suffer the consequences for.

Again I say FUCK!

What Is The World Coming To?

In 22 days I will cast a vote in one of the most historic elections and probably the most important one of my lifetime. American people are losing their jobs and homes, our economy is sufferring. We have been at war for 7 years with no end in sight. If all of this isn't bad enough; Kim Kardashian didn't even make it through the halfway point of Dancing with the Stars, P.Diddy anounced on Making the Band that Aubrey O'Day is no longer a member of Danity Kane, T.I. was arrested for buying illegal guns, Holly Madison has broken up with Hugh Hefner, and Marcia Brady is finally speaking out about her drug addiction!

Seriously? Looking at CNN.com at the top 10 most read stories, this is what people are reading about? What is the world coming to?
