Tonight I watched Whip It. An amazing movie I must say. But while I was watching it I couldnt help but think of how often the scenario happens. Parents want children to do what it is that they want (mostly because they could never go as far with it as they wanted) then their children become upset with their parents, rebel against them and do crazy antics to discover what it is they want.
When does the vicious cycle end? Should it?
If it never happened and parents were always very open to what it is their children wanted then we wouldnt have the special moment when they accept you and see you in newer eyes, meaning more appreciation than the already ridiculous amount of love we all hold for family. (but that doesnt go without saying that children do need limits)
If it did, then maybe in the end we would loose them, because of course not everything has a happy ending.
And for those children who have parents that couldnt care less, hopefully they'll strive for more and achieve more than any of their family member's would have thought of them.
So where does that leave me? With a headache.
Compromising with each other would help, I think that parents should push their kids but to do great things in general. If they approached their child and gave them the options and the child agrees, then they decide whether they want to pursue it or not. And parents should be open to what their children have to say. To what their children want to do whether it be for life or as a hobbie or extra curricular activity.
I think that if parents wouldnt be so ignorant and senile, kids wouldnt be so against them. Or atleast it would be toned down a bit.

Gang wars.
My senior year we did a one act in my drama class called the Hoods. It talked about gang violence and the kinds of people who are in it.
What are they fighting for? These big bad guys who shoot each other, killing innocent people for gang initiations, putting kids on the street to sell crack pipes and other crazy paraphernalia. They could save everyone the trouble and put the guns to their own heads and shoot themselves. Id understand that.
What is it they get for doing drive by shootings? By beating up the new kid in school, or on the block? By stealing merchandise, selling crack, killing girls, beating them, fighting each other. All for the name of brotherhood, right?
I didnt grow up in such poverty, but i feel no sympathy. Because only a moron would do what they do. People with less than half a brain. But their smarter than that. They dont give themselves credit for what they could be doing. They decide to live a shorter life, harming those they love (if they love) and if they read this they would say some obscenity towards my harsh uncaring words.
They are ignorant. People who are to lazy to try and strive for something at all other than a death wish. If no one faught at all then their would be no struggles. They could work together. Its no peace but its compromising. They would have developers seek out their city and want to build their but they push everyone out. They live on welfare and keep having babies so they can get more money.
Correct me if im wrong but problems occur when people want them too. Anger is a symptom of an undeveloped mind unable to understand and grieving for attention because since their not smart that is the only way they get it.
It is not the appearance of them that is disturbing, the guns, drugs, and what not. Its their attitude. Their ability to be so stupid and unambitious that is disturbing.
But dont care what other people think. Make war with yourselves and those who are innocent and kill yourselves in the end.
You will die, their deaths will not give you immortality, or power. Because once your dead no one can care less. Its all about who will be next in line to make their master.
So I finish with these final questions,
What is it you are fighting for?
Why is it so important?
Who told you that fighting is the only way out?
Where is it said that you must kill each other because life is war and it must always be in war?
When will it end and how?
And why is it so hard for people to understand that peace is so much easier to attain than what they make it look out to be?
It isnt a fantasy, its real, and if people just tried we might get somewhere.

Karma
Tonight I wanted to go out and watch whip it?
Seems like a petty want and something that could easily be given: right?
Completely wrong!
My friend and I went to eat at chile's before we went.
We waited 20 or so minutes, went inside and waited some more for our horrible waitress to wait us.
We never even got to order all we got was our drinks. And not even the 3rd one:my friend whose taste buds are shot because of sickness, had asked for to quench her thirst.
A strawberry lem. that never made to our table.
And since we wanted to watch the movie with no time to spare we left $5 for my drink (her's was water) and left.
Once we reached mcdonalds we ordered and I decided to search for my phone in my purse.
I searched and then grew frantic when not finding it.
I go outside quickly and check my car. Not there either.
Im pissed.
I left it at chile's.
No dinning in for at mcdonalds after all.
So my friend decides to go to the car and get her phone to call mine.
I wait for our meals.
I go to my car, only to find out she doesnt have hers either!
We both are pissed!
We go back to chile's and apparently someone just stole them because no one returned them.
whats sketchy is the fact that the hostess made the comment of us walking out, although we paid and left a tip for the lowsy waitress.
So we left...
What's the point of this? What happens to the person who stole our piece of shit phones? What do they get from phones that cant even call since we suspended the service shortly after discovering that they didnt want to answer our calls?
Was it pure coincidence that we left them and someone whose apparently dirt poor or no morals stole our phones shortly after? Or that the waitress was mad at us leaving? regardless of who did or how it happened, why? Why steal someones phone. Someones anything.
Im not very religious so its no like im going to say "OMG he/she sinned they will go to hell" but seriously was is the point in doing it. The excitement? The fact that they can make a few dollars? all it makes me think of them is that their poor, are idiots, have no respect for other peoples belonging's, ignorant, the list goes on. So I just dont get it.
Im sure they dont care what I think, but everyone else who isnt like them thinks some of the same things or along the same guidelines. It wasnt a priceless item they stole it was just the act that upsets me.
IDK what to think though.
the real question is what are they?
ANd what the fuck are they doing here.
