Realizing Reality In My Perspective

When you put it all together you realize it's reality, and the way the world was formed.

Realizing Reality In My Perspective
Googglet

Whether you walk across the street or to the next state, you never understand why things are the way they are. I never will understand why the homeless are homeless, why innocent humans develop conditions like cancer or other diseases putting there lives at risk, why there are criminals running the streets, why running a family cost so much, and even why everybody relies on technology to run their life today.

When you put it all together you realize it's reality and the way the world was formed. This is the way it has become, and it'll only get worse from here. Honestly, think about it; you really don't think that it's going to get any better do you? With the way technology, bills, and everything else are upgrading things will only make things harder. Harder to get a job, harder to start a future, but more importantly it'll be harder for the homeless to even get a new start. But, why? Why does it have to be formed so negatively? Isn't there another side to look at things? There is and there always will be, but I'm not going to sit here and tell you life is good when it's not.

I'm not going to tell you none of these things happen to me, because I would be lying. It happens to everyone, and believe it or not it's happening to me. My family.

I get so angry to see these things all around me happening, and think what can I do to help? The selfish part about it is you can't save every single person in the world. Because then life would "be perfect." If life was perfect people wouldn't have jobs, educations, or families. The negative around the world is what shapes the world. Understanding everything and everyone is a learning process. It takes mistakes in the world to learn how to fix them.

Cancer takes over thousands and even millions but it's a learning process for scientists and doctors. They of course do not want to see anyone like this but the only way to learn about the cure is to study the problem.

Exactly the same thing goes for the homeless. We don't want everyone to be living outside where the bugs are, but the only way to help is to understand the struggle. Building homeless shelters to help keep them healthy and safe is a time consuming process.

I only thought of this article because my sister goes through one of these problems. She goes through an infusion to try and help the disease attacking her body. Am I angry? Yes, but I can't do anything about it. I realize if she is okay with learning how her body is treating her and how she is working around it to learn about her condition then I am okay with learning too.

It may never go away, but realizing how life just throws itself at you sucks. Positivity and strength are the only ways of understanding the pattern of the world.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
