Tulelake, CA— Making a difference
When I sit down to write something I want it to be worth not only my time, but also the time someone takes to read it. Sometimes it takes a while before an idea comes to me that needs to be written about. After all, that is what I do best. I write.
What I do not worry about is nobody writes like I do and I don’t write, like they do. I spend my time trying to make a difference through what I do do. Sometimes, I have no idea where my story will lead or what I will write about until I sit down and begin to do it. Then, it comes to life, sometimes all on its own.
As most of us do from time to time, I look around at the world around me. I try and think of better ways of doing things or answers to situations, not only in my personal life, but those that go on everyday in the world. Trying to find a solution so that we can all go on to a better life, to a better tomorrow that we wake up each day and hope to find ourselves in. Not an easy task, when there are obstacles in our way or others trying to keep us from doing just that, succeeding at something they wish they could do. All they know is turmoil and disruption and drama that they bring on themselves and then wonder why things are not so good for them.
I have people in my life who seem to think that destroying something of mine is going to make me stop what I am doing. If anything it has the opposite affect on me, it makes me that more determined to win at, what they are losing. You see, the only thing they have accomplished in the world is where everyone knows them for who they really are, nothing more than a group of people trying to throw their weight around, like a bunch of bullies having a temper tantrum when they don’t get their way or people find out what they are really like and about and they loathe that too.
You see these kinds of people cannot handle one thing, and that is the truth about themselves. They do not want any one to find out who they really are inside as hateful, sad, little people going nowhere. They think if they stand up and yell and scream a lot and destroy other people's property to try and get their way, so that people will give in to their childish demands and ways. If anything, in the real world, it has the opposite affect.
For the time being it may seem I am the one losing the game but in reality, that reality soon to come for them as their friends they thought were their friends, slip away and they end up being right where they started, nowhere. The only thing they did do is waste a lot of time on negative things, when if they would have spent that time and energy doing positives things. Just look how much more they could have accomplished, instead of what they tried to destroy, and lost in the end by their own doing.
Good luck!
