Realism leads to realizing our world is crap.

I hate the idea of realism and i love it at the same time. The reason I love it? It makes sense. It's a good way of thinking, knowing what things are and planning on that. It's a way to go head-first into things and just know what you're dealing with and make decisions based on that. The reason I hate it? Boy does it suck. To know things and then go "crap, are we idiots." :

I just finished watching a movie that documents the events on Sept 11th, more exactly, the fourth plane that was destined to crash into either the Capitol Building or the White House. As I watched it, I was just, ah, in awe, in shock, my stomach hurt. I had so many feelings. I knew that these people weren't really there, they were actors and they were fine. But knowing that there was real people there, and the emotions I saw were real as well. It just pains me. It got so bad I had to call my brother to watch the end with me because I couldn't handle it on my own. I asked him a question near the end. "What do you think would be worse?: Being in one of the towers, being in a hijacked plane, or being a family member at home recieving a call or seeing the news reports and knowing your loved one is on that plane? It's a hard question to answer. There was so much about that incident that just hurts all over.

I'll never be able to understand it. I don't get how we hurt each other. I don't get why we hate so much. I don't believe in aliens, and yet I think if there are ones out there coming to attack (like we all say will one-day happen), it's so sad that we won't be ready. Think about it. We're so busy attacking each other, that we're not prepared for anything. We're the same specis. The same! There are only one specis called "Humans". It's so sad that we can never be strong together because we're too busy trying to be stronger than our neighbour.

Just something to think about.
Either or, I think if you're reading
this, you should just pray for the families
of Sept 11. Even though it's been almost 6 years,
it's still a big deal.
Thanks everyone,
God Bless.
