The starting

I have begun keeping a blog because everything else around me is a change and dizzying spin of movement and irregularity.
I'd love to have something to call my own-firm and unchanging, unless I say so otherwise.
This blog is going to be filled with the ramblings of a single person, with an open mindedness and willingness to hear from others. All forms of writing are of intrigue and comments or ideas about writing are welcomed also.
So here goes...
People are horrible creatures. Vile, vain, and greedy; always are fighting to come out on top or be the very best of each and every thing. And even when things are accomplished, good as are, it's still not enough. Not only will people destroy and humiliate others, but will refuse to leave it at that, they feel no remorse and shut out all other light in their own dark, cold, room. That's all it is really, a dark cold room where desires are a starvation, eating away at the spoiled so they may take more from any other creature close to them. It's a horrible thing and people continue to do this, and have even named these events as 'sin' and have punishment system called 'religion' for due process. Within this 'religion' people are allowed power and can gain higher role in said process. Even a god-fearing but somehow holy community can have RANKS or roles that you must step into line for. And so stands at the back of the herd, with the God-whip in their hand, the high men and women of these ranks, and who is whipped? You'd think the common man and his wife, but no, they were whipped a long time ago and hold their own whips as well. The main abused in this process is the child. The child, a small feeble thing, impressionable at best, will listen and not learn, however mock and imitate the whippings of their parents and take on the roles. Then they hold themselves higher...and so starvation and spoils begin. But then who is to blame? A question I can't find an answer to...

People are a beautiful thing. Born bare and learn to wear clothing and to talk. They learn to sing and dance and move with grace, when only mere animals themselves. They create art, art being the most everlasting of each society, lovely writing and paintings and drawings. Music that can entrance your very thoughts and create a new world for you...visuals and graphics. The technology and revolution has the world in a tizzy, and the competing continues and the successes become larger and grander. While we have rockets flying far and a new songs being sung and new photos being taken..the events and the glory everlasting. Each smile fading into the next as whole groups will feel a euphoria not quite like anything ever before. Eyes are lit as wildest dreams are soon discovered and beauty can be found within the mind and even to depths that never had surfaced before. A new idea and invention..a new life and a new love..a new dream and an old friend. Connections and ties...all together bringing us closer. How do we not love one and other when it comes down to mortality and quest of happiness, we're all the same? A question I can't find an answer to...

Conflicting thoughts and measures. Good deeds and cruelties, none of them intertwine or make sense. History and Science and Art and Math mix and while we have all the answers in books and computers, our minds rarely know what we're doing. So what are the answers? Will we ever work? Or are the imbalances just too much and we're all just ticking time bombs, the ones that think-and the oblivious and ignorant dance in bliss?
These are the questions that I can not answer...
