Dark Sky...(Life)

It is a dark sky with a million stars

A rain storm ending in a bang

The truth that surrounds us

Unseen

without the plastered smile

Silence

releases us from the chaos

Madness unleashed

Finally we sleep

Let their be peace.

We can come together for a change or divided we will fall.

It's hard to get your voice heard when you feel other's don't want to listen. I have been talking to people for a long time about where our country is heading. It's a very scary slippery slope, and I am worried about our future. There are several issues that need to be reformed to better our world for everyone. I am not speaking for one class, but all classes. I also do not mean any slander to any race, or religous denomination. I only mean for everyone to have equal rights and oppertunities not only as Americans, but as immigarants coming into America. What is hard for me as an American born here is that many people that are not American are able to get more help then the people who live here. I believe that everyone deserves a helping hand, not just one race, culture, or religious bergade. If we are to have equality for all shouldn't we all be treated equally, that is i.e. each given the ability to have health insurance if we cannot afford it, or get a job, as well as the right to a good edu? I also want to let you know that I don't blame those that are reciving aid from our Goverment. I blame the goverment for not coming up with a better plan for everyone instead of just giving help to a few people. That is what we all are people, and all people deserve the right to a good Education, Health care, a safe place to live, and a safe work place in America. It is sad that these things still have not been accomplished in a country so rich. It is difficult when people who have money think that because they worked for it, it only belongs to them. (Not all people think this, and some people do give) It is the responsibility of the community, and the hummanity I would hope that people could have for each other that we could live in a world where we helped each other, and it wasn't based on a monetary value. It is sad that in our world this is what life is based on, material items. We all have something positive to give each other. If we really want equality things will have to change, people will have to forgive each other for past trespasses done unto the other based on Hate, and we will have to bring love into this world. The only way I can see this happening is if we all step down from our pedistals, and learn how to view the other point of view. We also have to give each other options and with the power of respect we can choose to disagree on very sensitive issues such as the horrid Abortion which always seperates us. I feel with Abortion there is no right answer both sides have great points. If you look at one aspect you can see a child's life being taken, the inability for it to become someone great, and be loved, or adopted by a loving family. The other point of view is a child who is unwanted and left in the foster care system, looked down on by his mother because he was a product of a rape, or suffering in poverty. These are all things that are possibilities, and don't say they are not. There are many perspectives and when you only see your own it hurts everyone. We all need to open our eyes, ears, and hearts to stand up for ourselfs in these coming years. If we don't stand up for what we believe to be right where is that going to put us, or our children in the next centuary? Do you care how our goverment treats us, the issues they feel they have a right to govern over us? What's more important wars, or education? Where are our tax dollars really going? How do we solve the problem of fuel for cars when if solved how will the poor get to work? They can't afford to buy new cars. It so saddens me that all these issues are not answered or even considered when changes are made. How will it affect everyone, lower class, and high class? Where will the higher class be when the lower class can no longer afford to buy and purchase the products the upper class provides? I could go on, I really hope someone understands that this is very important, it is not a joke! Do you care where your children or there children will be in years to come. Will they be able to go to college without having to give themselfs up to the miliatary services to keep from becoming in debt? I ask you to think think and don't hesitate to write to the goverment, band together as Americans, don't just stand by and Watch!!!! Do something!!!
