This world has gone mad... | | I didn't know where to put this thread - since it's both a personal thread, but it is really also just a discussion on the daily events on the news worldwide.
It's a world gone mad. Right now, I don't know where to turn to or where to go... The tragedy in Asia has touched me extreamly and has caused the death of so many people. My "grandmother" is really sick, and I'll be surprised if she will recover again anytime soon... and last but not least - an old friend of mine was found dead at the harbour - only 18 years old. I'm so confused, I mean what kind of world are we living in? War and terror - death and sickness it's all over us and seems like it's taking over everything!
I can't even stand watching the news anymore, because they're all about death and bad stuff anyways... Like the news right now: Ofcouse the big news is the newest from Asia, but the other news were a 12 year old girl, that was raped, a 2 year old who died last night, after being hit by some fireworks. 2 people were stabbed (one to death - also last night) and so on and so on... it seems as the bad things just wont ever stop.
Where are we going right now? The world is coming together they say and everyone is sending money to Asia - well great - but are people forgetting that war is still going on in Iraq? They're still fighting - inocent people are still dying there every single day!
I can't stand it anymore... I wanna do something but i can't, I can send my money - yes, but when thats done I can only sit back and watch all of this madness... it makes me just wanna break down and cry....
These last weeks of 2004 has been so awfull, and right now it seems as we will never get a normal funtional world again.. either we destroy each other with war and terror - or the nature will do it by it self....
Sorry, if I seem so depressed, but I can't understand why the world is turning like this, and I can't do anything...
Thank you for reading - if you ever got this far... I just needed to get it of my chest....
Take care of one and another...
