I Was Born A Hippie.

There's one thing I've learned recently and it's that I have no idea where my life is going. Some people are born knowing they want to be a vet or an acrobat. Of course we all had dreams- I was going to be a singer and you a firefighter or the president. But some people just know. You get my point though. I just absolutely don't have a clue. Musician, writer, lawyer, engineer? Sometimes I feel like I work so hard only to know what I want for a split second and then it's over and I'm back to nothing. I don't want you to misunderstand though. I don't feel like nothing. I know I'm something and I'm far from insignificant.

I sat at the beach the other night with a friend, eating Taco Bell and watching the waves break in the moonlight and I argued with him about whether or not we are insignificant. He thinks we are but I highly disagree. One person can change the world. Then he said that one person couldn't change the world. We had a long discussion about it though. I told him that he was right- by themselves one person could not change the world but one person could start a revolution. Then he said that there aren't enough people who care. I almost yelled at him for that. They are enough people who care in our generation. It's just that our generation is lazy and they're not enough who care to lead.

The world needs to change though. It's going to the crapper and I'm not just talking about the environment and whatnot. No one bothers to care about other people and no one seems to try to understand anything. We all form opinions without knowing the facts. It's horrible. We all need to think before we speak especially when we know nothing about what we're going to speak. Sometimes I'm amazed at what comes out of people's mouths. I had no clue we are all that dumb. We are the unformed revolution that can change all of this.
