do you ever just feel so worn out by the world that you just want to sit and cry? I've felt like that a lot lately. I'm tired of hearing about "the war on terrorism" and all the other negative stories on the news. Just once I would like to hear a story similar to lassie pulling timmy out of the well. *sighs* but no... it's all about the president's approval ratings, HMO's swindling the elderly, and the neverending quarrel between democrat's and republicans. Who the hell really cares? That doesn't really seem like news to me... just seems like I'm watching a soap opera. So yes.. I have made the decision not to watch the news, but it still wears on me. I honestly lost interest in the War on Terrorism about a month and a half after the WTC incident. I just can't stand it. About the same time I lost interest in the "War on Terrorism" I began to realize something. For the next 10 years, we're all going to be forced to "look back" at the tragedy on it's anniversary... same thing as Oklahoma City, and you know... for the last 2 years, I've always been highly annoyed when they bring it up. C'mon, aren't we supposed to move on and grow from the situation? My dad died 4 years last January.. yes I still mourn him, but I don't take a "look back" every year on the anniversary of his death. It's just another day where I miss him. I don't do anything special. I know I may come across as a bitch for this, but honestly, I don't give a shit anymore. I've said it before that people are way too soft and I stick by that. I'm not saying that I'm Queen Shit or anything, I'm just saying that bad things happen and you just gotta Hakuna Matata. That's probably the best thing ever uttered in that movie to be completely honest. Teach kids at a young age to get over things. Oh well though... it's not like my words here will change anyone's outlook on life, and I highly doubt anyone will even look here, much less agree with me, but I had to let that pissyness out.
