So I don't think I need to tell anyone what today is. The irony of that statement is that I can be refering to one of three thingsl: The birth of the person responsible for the most death in history, the aniversary of Columbine, or 4/20, as in the day where everyone has the sudden, uncontrolable urge to smoke marijuana. If people based thier answer off the first thing that popped into thier heads, #3 would be the most popular choice. I congratulate all of you out there who picked one of the first two. ("All of you out there" is providing that more than one or two people read this thing, mind you)
Why I choose to refuse to use drugs is a complicated question to answer. There is no way for me to answer it without upsetting people who use drugs. It's not my intention to insult anyone, or make anyone feel bad, but these are my oppinions.
Generally, I like to think of myself as someone who is going to maybe accomplish something someday. I believe in a lot of causes. I'd like to think, hypothetically, that I could possibly influence the way the world thinks. There's a lot in the world, in my opinion, that needs changing. Everyone can relate to this, I think. Many people are generally dissatisfied with the way our culture and our government treat us. I think that if I were to start on that path, that there would be no turning back. That I would sort of lose faith in everything. That I would become like everyone in here who spends his lonely day in his room smoking instead of thinking.
But you know, sometimes I wish I could be apathetic. I wish I could stop caring about the world around me. I wish my problems can be solved by buying something. But I think things are deeper then that. Atleast, I hope so.
