As I was walking today it occurred to me that happiness while pleasant is overrated and sadness while sometimes inevitable is fairly foolish. So what does that leave? That leaves what I feel at the core of it all is what we all truly want.....peace. Pure and simple peace.
Emotions will rise, things will happen that we will categorize as good and/or bad, but these things need not lead us by the collar. We don't need to constantly respond to them, let them dictate our moods and mannerisms. There is the conscious thought that as long as we are alive things will happen to us and we needn't give them control. We can chose to stay centered. We can chose to be still with life, chose to be the rock at the base of the stream and not the leaf that gets carried every which way by it.

U.S. Enslavement
I'm frustrated beyond measure. I hate the way the world is set up. It's all wrong. All of it. From start to finish. Our food and water is contaminated. We are enslaved to corporations and financial institutions. We are pitted against each other in hate games. We are the pawns in a system made by people in the shadows, the 1% of the world that has true control and the power to do whatever they want. Do you think they follow laws? Do you think they uphold norms? Hardly!
We're the suckers, the worker bee's, the marching ants. We're the ones sent to jail for petty crimes. Do you think the 1 percenter's go to jail. Celebrities hardly ever go, now think of those with much more power and money. They don't even go to court. They probably don't even get arrested. I'm so sick of the hypocrisy in life. Judges, priests, cops telling us to do one thing while they do another. No one is good enough to judge, because we are all culpable. So why do we have this grotesque sham of a system? It doesn't work. Has no one caught on to that? And I have three words for anyone that says the U.S. is the place to be: Monsanto, Enron, Bailouts.
Note to people wanting to come to the U.S. from other countries. Don't come! Don't bring your children here! You have you're own land, your own culture. Work on making your country better. Fight for the rights that you want to seek where you are now. Don't strip your children of their heritage to bring them to a culture of indulgence and ignorance, a country that will enslave you as a second class citizen, rape your children of their childhood and teach them to be materialistic, superficial consumers. The freedom you think you seek is really only a long leash. I think it's far better to stand up for your rights where you are. Bring about what you think is here wherever your home is. Because what you think you will find here, I guarantee you is not here. It's all a facade, smoke and mirrors. There is no real freedom here, just a different kind of enslavement.
