I truly admire the people that get up everyday and go to work. The economy is horrible now and I find it truly disgusting to see people that were completly capable of working sit back and get "help" from the government, when now there are people who have always worked an honest days work and can't get the help they need because they got laid off or their job got cut because there is no money. I also realize that my opinion on this doesn't matter, but every voice counts.
I find myself thinking about ways that I can help the world. I think about the starving people, and not just children but people young and old. I think about the homeless and the people that are fighting to be able to marry the one that they love. Something that I think needs to be changed is that we are hypocrites. Americans can go into other countries and tell them what they are doing is wrong, but how are we any better? People here are murdered, our government is corrupt. We have flaws in our own system and its not right for us to criticize another country for having flaws.
We feed the children in Africa, what about the children here? I mean we spend all kinds of money making sure that everybody else is ok, but we forget about our own. Why?
Hopefully I made you think today. I am thirteen years old and I have a lot to say. This is one of many blogs to come.
