Life is such a sad song

|
Today is such an insane day I don't even know where to begin.
I just know that I should have kept sleeping. Argh, so much of bad news, too much work and too little time - so many many things I wanna do! Bah!!!
:/
A friend passed this morning. He wasn't a particularly close friend, but we've had good times, I remember interesting conversations... and more outstandingly - he was an all round great guy. A very nice guy (that's rare in this era of jerks!) and it's such a shame... [Bless ya Bombe]
Just got me really thinking, about how many friends I've lost in the recent years and how perhaps I should really re-think my life. No I'm not going on about sins and tragedies... just you know, how short life is - how pointless it is to waste the best years of our lives on heartache and regret and selfishness.
How unpredictable time is. How insignificant I am.
I don't like taking life too seriously, I think then you miss out on too many amazing experiences... but I don't think we should stand by and watch life flash by only to find ourselves empty handed - that is selfishness...
Pfffft, but this aint about me
Next time you find yourself waiting, hopeless, on the brink of devastation but still driven by mindless desperation... think.... do you really want your last memories to be bad ones?
We all have tough times, but its up to us how we chose to spend our days... and how we chose to be remembered...

Constant Change

I'm reaching my limits...
I'm loosing control...

I can't believe you're blind to it all

I keep waiting here...
For the coast to clear...

But nothing will ever change

I have realised....
Gotta get used to this pain inside...
It's more than a lifestyle...

Say hello to the rest of my life

People who think, yet DON'T

You sit in a class with Canadians, Americans, Koreans, Indonesians, Indians, Chinese, Malaysians,Arabs, Brits, Kenyans, Scots, Irish, Tanzanians, Nigerians, Bangladeshis...
and you listen to them bitch about politics.
I heard...
"Dude, I so fucking hate this"
"Politics is so bloody boring"
"I hate this"
""Its the cause of corruption"
and so on... followed by...
"It's all corrupt"
"Everything just sucks"
"People treat people like SHIT"
so on, so forth...
IT REALLY FUCKING FRUSTRATES ME!
Why? If not for politics --> NONE OF THESE PEOPLE WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SIT TOGETHER AS EQUALS IN A CLASS ROOM AND SPOKEN TO EACH OTHER!
The Indians would've been cleaning, the whites teaching, the whites learning, the Africans cooking... You know?? And there would be no females teaching or learning. Its true!
What is politics?
The art or science of government or governing, especially the governing of a political entity, such as a nation, and the administration and control of its internal and external affairs.
To put it more simply, it's about the relationships between people, and the decisions these interrelated people make about how to live together.
You can't HATE politics, it's a reality and a fact of life. It's life... it really is... the way your household is managed, the hierarchy of parents and siblings... the rules and guidelines, the taboos and the history - that makes up the politics of your home. That, on a larger scale, is government politics! So long as we are a part of a country, we are involved. Since we all live on this planet, we are all involved in the GLOBAL schemes too!
So say you hate the way it is currently being run. In a few years you'll be in the position the fuckers like Bush are in now... some of you will, and it's what you do today that will determine who they will be... so make your voice heard, there are people who would listen! Stop advocating apathy - it makes the rich richer and the weak a whole lot weaker.
Your silence is oppression. The more you 'shut the fuck up', the more you are asking for people to take advantage of you. You're waving a 100 Dollar bill in front of a desperate man and expecting him to do the honorable thing. Humans.. are humans.. and politicians are human. A lot of them are greedy pigs and inhumane idiots, believe me - I know... first hand. Then again, you did almost ASK them to take advantage of you.
Most of the time, the rise of racism, sexist attitudes, regimes like totalitarian rulers, are the direct result of excessive ignorance and negligence from both parties involved. So speak up, you were given the right to! Expect the worst, but things go from bitter to sweet, all the time.
It boils from a lot of empty talk though. Maldivians in particular just create horrible attitudes and then bitch about things. You would never mock a polio victim. But you would freely mock a Huwadhoo person or an Addoo person (oooh evil you say...) and a person from darker complexion. Try to adjust this primitive thinking before you play around with political systems. Most people can't differentiate presidential or parliamentary. Why cry now? You could have just made it clear... Presidential simply means Golhaa is the only one who will approve his own resignation. LOL
That way more people might have listened?
Try killing the Addu stereotype before appointing a Adduvian as President ... might be smarter??
