So I apologize if that's what you're looking for in this article, these are just my emotions that I've let run loose. Thanks to whomever reads this. Please save me from the madness inside of me,I only reign weak and depressed while the guilt is still in the middle moving forward into my chest, Why must I be the one made to feel miserable in this tragic mundane life; with very little praying in the time of darknessThis corrupting, disruptive world… This planet.. Each person says that they will make a difference, a change, but it is only said for publicity, it’s not even true to their heart.I am not the only one suffering, children, adults, people all over the world get their warmth by the tears they cry at night. Many animals are sleeping lifeless in the roads, they can try to get to the other side but cars are just too advanced.But by the waves moving creates the sound of a clash, when the leaves change colors in the fall, how the plants sprout into beautiful flowers in the Spring, will be gone.Green grass turns into variations of the shade yellow, while temperatures get higher as decades go on, not quite yet, the world will eventually come to an end.There is a saying “Live life to it’s fullest”, so what does that compromise of? Instead of clubbing, drugs, intoxication… Do something useful, the world needs you more than unhealthy substances.Fire and ice, if humans still burn off fuels it goes in the air, it’s not gone forever, chuckle in the backseat of your car, are your windows open, the air your breathe is not fresh, it’s polluted with chemicals. Polar bears need their ice burgs, animals have lived on Earth way before us humans have, they have no say in anything, we’re careless. If nothing happens soon, we’ll be gone, you won’t know if you are going to be back, or be gone forever.Do you learn from your previous mistakes, if you do things your way, you never think of others. Look into the mirror, look deep inside yourself, it’s okay to be different, you are you, being different is unique, if everyone was the same it would be boring, but we’re not, it is like a rainbow, we range from color to color.It’s a natural instinct to have a first impression, judging is a whole different level, when saying to someone even if you don’t know them well, thinking before making a hurtful comment would be best. Do not bash on them if they do not come on to you as the way YOU’D like. You never know how they may take what you say serious or not as quite.Provoking violence is not the right direction, you’re not moving… East, west, or North.. You are heading south, the negative lane. Do what you want but know your boundaries, labels are a misconception, don’t follow somebody else, lead yourself into deeds that are going to have to be achieved to where you’ll stand as a healthy individual. Minds are like parachutes, they only work when open, if you suffer from a learning disorder, mentally disabled, that by all means DOES NOT make you incapable of being the best person you can be… You can learn and do so many problems in your lifetime, if you aren’t appreciating who you are than start.Racism… Is it even against the law anymore?! I see many people being picked on because of their color, who cares? They were born that way, just like you were born that way. Get over and start being nicer to people, I believe anyone could be decent if they lifted their heads up and started to treat others they way they want to be treated. But the people who don’t want to do that are people who need to learn how to be nicer.I know for a fact that I’m a great human being all together, I care, I think of others before myself, I am generous, I love to talk to people if they have problems, being good is always being grateful of your surroundings, and you never know how much a person will appreciate what you do, at all.Anyone could limit bullying or stop it, if everyone was given a chance, I would try to the best of my ability to give hope and believe but sometimes you are let down, sometimes you are surprised. Don’t let it get to you now, just adjust to reality, never back down, never give up, never let anyone defeat you, because you may think you’re weak but you are strong.-Val.

reader, Odds +, writes (17 April 2012):
 Quite an article. I'll throw down a few thoughts - some hopeful, some not, but at least an attempt to give you something to think about.
"Each person says that they will make a difference, a change, but it is only said for publicity, it’s not even true to their heart."
There's only so much an individual can do. For instance, I volunteer a lot, particularly for work with kids, and give a good chunk of my income to charities which I've vetted for efficiency and honesty. On the one hand, that's not a huge difference. On the other, there are seven billion people out there, so a lot of small differences can be made each day. Gripping hand, we do what we can with what we have, and have to be content with it.
"...when the leaves change colors in the fall, how the plants sprout into beautiful flowers in the Spring, will be gone."
And they'll be back again later. Winter has it's own beauty, and spring always comes later. How boring would a world be if there weren't low points?
"...temperatures get higher as decades go on, not quite yet, the world will eventually come to an end."
Temperatures have not been getting higher since the 90's. That's why it's called "climate change" now instead of global warming. It's nothing to panic about, the climate changes all the time - it has been since before we got here, and it will long after we're gone. And the world isn't going anywhere: it's a 6x10^24 kg lump of iron flying through space at unimaginable speeds. It's been here for six billion years, and it'll last another few billion years at least.
"There is a saying Live life to it’s fullest', so what does that compromise of?"
It means experience it, make your mark on it, and enjoy it enough that you want to keep experiencing it. Getting drunk once in a while is fun, and fun sustains me when it's time to get down to business. Balance in everything.
"...animals have lived on Earth way before us humans have, they have no say in anything, we’re careless."
Give the critters some credit. They've survived ice ages, meteorites, volcanoes, tidal waves, and even enormous changes in the level of oxygen in our atmosphere (it wasn't always 20% oxygen, after all). Life is not static, nor is it meant to be. Evolution is a continuing process of birth and extinction, but like any process, its beauty is only in being allowed to continue, dynamic, not stagnant. Critters will be here long after we're gone.
"...judging is a whole different level, when saying to someone even if you don’t know them well, thinking before making a hurtful comment would be best."
I agree with thinking before speaking, but sometimes another person really deserves to be judged. There is such a thing as good and evil, right and wrong, and there are times to take the kid gloves off. For example, should we judge the engineer who decides it's more economically efficient to mass-produce a product in a way that creates large quantities of toxic byproducts? I'd say yes, and I'd frown on any coward who injected moral relativism into that discussion.
"Racism… Is it even against the law anymore?!"
It was never against the law, at least here in the U.S. And it shouldn't be, we're not in the business of being thought police. There are sensible, morally correct limits on how you can act out on racist beliefs (no firing people for being black, for instance), but this country has held freedom of conscience sacred since its inception. We don't have to like racists or associate with them to accept that they have a right to exist. It's another thing that, while never illegal, is totally within the realm of permissible social judgment.
"I know for a fact that I’m a great human being all together, I care, I think of others before myself, I am generous, I love to talk to people if they have problems..."
Everyone thinks that. Most of them are right. It's the Fundamental Attribution Error - we ascribe the best motives to our own actions, and the worst to others'.
