Justice?

I can't help but feeling that we live in a world that protects the provokers and punishes the provoked. If a guy talks trash to your face for hours and after a while you snap and knock him out, the man still standing is look at as a threat yet the provoker become the victim. It's like giving a child a spanking, he did wrong and now you physically discipline him. Or, if a man breaks into your home, armed, trying to rob you, and you beat him within an inch of his life, in his home and inner circle he's a hero, and the eyes of justice he's threat, while the man breaking in has become a victim. A man could save a woman from being gang raped, but accidentally kill one of the men in that gang, yet the woman will still have to beg and plead to get that man a lite jail sentence. But let the government be involved with giving the provokers what they deserve and all of a sudden it turns from assault and/or manslaughter into capital punishment.

I seriously hate tehis person

Seriously...........I hope he get's traded and they change his number. It's SAY Ochocinco, but he'll be #47, and I'll be laughing.

something to ask yourself.

In every generation
1 million people dream
1 hundred thousand people work towards that dream
1 hundred people accomplish that dream
1 person IS the dream.
Which one of these are you?

Only the amazing.......live forever

Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vahn, Janis Joplin (Jefferson Airplane), John Lennon (The Beatles), Freddie Mercury (Queen), Cliff Burton (Metallica), Randy Rhoads (Quiet Riot, Ozzy Osbourne), Layne Staley (Alice in Chians), Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott (Pantera) and now...Michael Jackson. All were extremely influential people in music, who died well before they're time, and now they will live on forever.

I can see it fading.

What the hell happened to individualism? All I see is more and more people joining, becoming part of the growing mass, that will continue co devour the human race. Yes, physically none of us will ever be the same, but mentally, it seems as if people are trading in their individuality for their "trendy" cards. But why??? Why abandon who you are? Is it to be cool? When I was coming up, the people I deemed as "cool" where people that are original, like nobody else, not the ones like EVERYONE else. How can that be cool???? That would mean, buy those definitions, everybody caught in the mass is cool. How can a mass be cool if they're all followers and not leaders? Is everybody posers? I mean, you have old people trying to emulate what the kids do, becoming part of that growing mass. Only....they tend to stay a step behind lol.

But, a man once asked me "what's worse, being like everybody else or tryin your hardest to be different?" Which side is being truer to themselves? Is the right answer neither black nor white? Is it just a shade of gray? In many peoples struggle to be different, are we(yes.....I'm including myself) compromising who we truly are? Do we turn our backs on the things we like, or even loved just because more people started to like them? Let's face it, many people that we deem "different" are the true trend starters of the world. How so? It's because we do dare to be different and do what we want, wear what we want, listen to what we want, cause we do give a damn what anyone else thinks about us. But is that also a front in itself? Do you just brush off the insults like they don't matter, when deep down inside, our inner self is in pain....from not being accepted? Or do we truly not care, because being different is cool?

Is it like the whole Starbucks being everywhere deal? It's so many places, that it's lost it's uniqueness. It's lost it's special feel. It's doomed to become the name of coffee, just like Xerox has become the name of copies or how Aspirin has became the name of any pill containing aspirin. Is every trend going to start off as something small that people do just to be different and then grow so huge that it looses it's "special feel"? Are those highschool stereotypes gonna become more broad or even fade away? Or are they just gonna change? Is one going to become progressively more dominate over the rest as time goes on? I for one want my children to grow up in a world where they can be exposed to vastly different people, who enjoy vastly different things. Now, it doesn't hurt having common ground on things, because that's what helps bring us together. But, it's when all ground is common that worries me. Taking in some trends that you might actually like isn't bad. But when you take them in because everybody else is doing it, that's when it's bad. That's when your raping your individuality and throwing to the side just to join the mass.
