Just Somthin I Wrote 2

"some where inside of me i found a place where i hate to visit a place where 
typical things no longer matter."

the search for understanding has uncovered many reasons why i no longer 
believe in the ability of mankind to decipher not only right from wrong but today 
from tomorrow.  on an individual bases its easier to feel and listen to one's 
conscience, but on a mass scale the line between right and wrong, even deeper, 
good and evil is blurred.  on a mass scale the crusades seemed right, but for an 
individual person to kill in the name of god is wrong.  decisions placed in the 
hands of those that affect themselves the most often fail to choose the choice 
that will best fit the needs of a day yet to be seen.

the focus of this observation is love, it seems the straight will walk crooked to be 
with the one they feel is the most acceptable to the "needs" they feel come first.  
one can either choose to accept a love based on the financial establishment of 
the American society or physical desire.

in nature, where the bases of all life behavior stem, the idea of love does not 
exist.  a mate is chosen for the betterment and/or survival of the species.  so one 
can argue that choosing a love based on the ability of financial security is a 
natural desire.  the idea of being 'loved' is one of the many reasons that push us 
to seek for companionship.  Maybe it's the idea of love that needs defining.

ideas are one of a kind true to those that conceive them; obscured by those we 
confide them in along with the media's interpretation of perfection.  some say "in 
a simpler time," but i find it hard to believe in a simpler time in life when choosing 
a love was any easier.
