What is Seen...Isn't All Thats There.

We understand life as many things.....many things we simply don't understand. Most of us feel like were different from others in some way...don't think I don't know, I know that everyone feels they take in the weight of the world more than everyone else. But in reality, the weight of the world is divided. Though most of us living here in America might not be stuggling in physical needs as much as someone in Africa, that teenager in Africa might have to fight to feed his family, but they feel compasion and appriation in his/her family. And thats enough to get them though it all. Here, a teen could have everything they ever wanted, but their neglected. And being neglected is emtionally challenging, just as challenging as fighting for your family to have a good meal. This example works in many ways...love, friendship etc. Universal ideas that everyone around the world understands...as you can see, what was realesed in Pandoras box is evenly distributed all around the world...in one way or another, where you see one thing.......there is always another.

Work getting in the way of life?

Have you ever felt your life was surrounded by work and nothing else, the truth is...dont let work get in the way of your life...cause at the end of the day, its just work and living your life is more important. So if you have a paper to write so your about to tell your friends you can't go to the movies..DONT, go to the movies and have a good time. Even if you have to stay up all night writing the paper, the awesomeness of hanging with your friends will get you through it. Another reason is on Monday when people ask you what you did over the weekend do you want to say that you blew off your friends to write a paper or do you want to tell them something awesome that happend when you were hanging out and that you were strong enough to still write the paper. When you look back on your life, you dont want to be the person with no expierences because you spent too much time worrying about work. You want to be the person that did all the fun stuff as well as getting all your work done. Dont stress, just live.

Are we all intelligent?

The way modern society judges intelligence is only directed to one group of people, thats the people able to read and memorize a lot of crap. Im not saying that people who have high test scores are all fake, some are ligitametly intelligent, but there is a good number of people including myself that have a slight ablitity to memorize a lot of words, but most of them don't know what they mean or how to apply them. We forget about those people who have appitudes that are never tested on because no one cares, they will walk into the SAT's and get a low score but will be able to fix a car in a matter of minutes and know exactly what was wrong with it. The people who have the ablity to paint a picture that touches the hearts of so many but hey, there written off because on paper they don't look smart. They have unique ablities not regonized by many, no one that could help them be succussful in life. I based who I am off my ability to stlyle clothes, but of course..i have to study to get my test scores up so I can take the SAT's and get into a good college, but only the people in my life that bothered to regonized my unique ablity are the ones who appricate it. Though it would be hard to change the way the system works, i bet we could if we simply had more people regonizing the appitudes of others. But before we do that, take time to regonize a skill of someone around you that may be one of those people written off...they will appricate it.
