Us Vs Them

At this moment, there are a lot of things happening. There is the Libya massacre (and can you believe Gadaffi's bodyguards are all female that are trained to kill and protect Gadaffi's life and there are fourty of them? Yes, I could not imagine it myself), the quake that happened in Christchurch, New Zealand, the strike in Egypt, and now the quake and tsunami in Japan and some other countries in the pacific regions.

I prayed for them all and I prayed for myself and the people I love and my country and everyone on this Earth but I cannot help feeling the fear that one day, everything is going to just crash, the moon and the stars will fall to earth, destroying everything, there will be a war between us and them, not like there isn't one now. But really, the fear creeped too fast, too much, it made me jump at every possible thing that might lead to a bigger something.

While all this is happening in other countries, my country is dealing with its government. There is so much to say and so much to comment but I cannot do anything for I am a mere child of 19 years and might not have seen the world enough. I cannot even vote yet so why should I complain? But does it make you realize that this child of 19 years might be one of them who fears that all this political thingamajig that is happening will just either suffocate the younger generation or make them go through a period of suffer.

I certainly have issues with how things are being put into classes. I certainly have issues when we are compared to some other people and the comparison is too farfetched. I certainly have issues with people saying things about my religion or my community and I certainly have issues when that someone does not want to stand up for the people.

I can assume all I want, I can say whatever I want but once things are not cleared, it will be very hard to pinpoint and it will always be our fault and not theirs. Them who sits in an air-conditioned, lounging and talking about us casually. Maybe laughing at some of or stupidities. I keep asking myself to believe in them because they are there for a reason but I keep getting more and more agitated.

I don;t even know if I am making sense at all. Le sigh.
