          Kim had told me she had some news for me.I had to go to meet her and find out what it was about.

          When I got there,the door was opened,so I got in and went straight to her room.She was writing in her journal and she didn't even see me come in.

          ‘Hy Kim!I got here as fast as I could.I had to go to the school and do some shopping and..'

          ‘It's OK.You shouldn't have hurried.'

          ‘Well...you told me you had some news.So?What is it?'

          ‘It's about what happened today..about what I've learned.'

          ‘Everyday you learn something new.What's so special?'

          ‘Today I went to a meeting where the subject was about the world we live in today.'

          ‘That's interesting.Who was there?'

          ‘Hmm..all kinds of people.We had the chance to see how people of different ages think about this subject.We all agree that the new technology helps us a lot,even if the older persons don't know how to use it.Then we got to the way the teenagers dress.'

          ‘Yes...I know.Our parents don't approve with that at all.'

          ‘Here comes the best part.We also talked about tha way that feelings don't matter anymore,about the way we say ‘I love you' or ‘I hate you' so easily,without knowing the true meaning of these words.Our moral values are forgotten and replaced with the desire of being famous and having more and more moneyWhere will this take us?We should ask ourselfes what is more important:having money or having feelings?'

          ‘I remember one quote from a movie:'To feel...it's as vital as air..'.That's so true...But not too many people think like this.Unfortunately,we can't change everyone around us.'

          ‘No...We can't.But we can stick to our believes and we can act as we feel,not as other people do or tell us to do.'

          ‘That's the most important thing:not to be influenced by others.'

          The talk I had with Kim made me realize that the world we live in is not perfect,but we can make it better if we just stick to our good believes..

If you want to change the world, start by changing yourself

Our World (planet Earth) & the world we live in are completely different. The world we humans live in, is a dark and decadent place full of materialistic junk that we are fooled into believing we need and will ultimately enhance our lives for the better.

We bluff ourselves by awarded medals and trophies to our greatest achievements and

technological break-throughs, that as a race of people we have evolved head & shoulders above any other species we share the planet with. Total Bullshit.

It is true we have created many beautiful things, but to what end?

Eventually everything that we produce is manipulated into one thing, MONEY.

All this is done to the sacrifice of what is really important, our emotional well-being

and the well-being of the world all around us. We as humans are so fucking confused

that we destroy the very essentials that we need for our survival and pass it off as progress. It’s like setting out on a voyage in a big ship and as we progress on our way cannibalizing the ships parts for useless reasons of pleasure and vanity. People have forgotten what it is to be alive and how astoundingly lucking they are to be living.

Life should be a celebration of who we are, not what we own. Because fundamentally

the only things that we can possess are our feelings and emotions, consider this if you

were the only living thing on Earth tomorrow, would it make you happy to own everything you ever desired?

Or would you be happier living with every other living thing from the Earth dropped

on some other remote planet with none of life’s comforts?
