a lesser evil.

yup,its almost August. Time flies,really fast, don't you think? Now that I'm having my semester break,it feels good to be home.Funny how people back at my hometown said I've changed. For better,I supposed. I guess thats just part of growing up,the fact that I am almost twenty,I figured it would be best to start to act like one. Anyways,I finished my first year in law school. I have to say that,for the most part,I am really proud of how far I have achieved. I haven't achieved anything ,yet,since I am still working on pushing my grades up,however,mom told me,to be able to have the strength to come this far,I should add that to my lists of achievements.I'm not going to say that it was hard,yes of course it was hard,hell. However,when I think about it again,I know it wasn't that hard.Because life was made easier having my supportive family,and friends with me. And yes,above all,Lord Jesus Christ and my heavenly father. I promised myself that I would do better for semester two,I know i gave my very best,although there were times I broke down in tears because of fear of failure.Doing this for mom and dad,came this far,so I tried my hardest not to fail them.Because I need this and I want this.Moving on,I've been spending time in the library reading and writing.How peaceful it is for the disturbed,for me.I started my very own piece,named Concrete Angel. The thing is,I could never stop writing.The love I have for words,or for books,I love writing and reading more than I love doing anything.

This might be random but,there's something I would like to say ,and this might be the first time ever I'm talking about some world issue in my blog. Here goes,you know what really fucks me up about this israeli attack on gaza? And what irks me about this whole conflict in general? Reading and looking at the photos that was vastly spread about people dying,even children.The news and death tolls keeps on coming,and how on earth people who aren't in their position still can sit there,and have the heart to say "oh okay." We all know, no one is going to do anything about it. Sooner or later the israelis are going to exterminate the palestinians and no one is going to do one damned thing about it, because if someone does anything to protect palestine, it will surely unleash a third world war,I supposed. So letting another genocide, another holocaust happen is “the lesser of two evils”. How fucked up is that?They cannot even feel any empathy for someone’s death, cannot pause to be sad that a person, not even thinking about it being a Palestinian, is dead.They claim to understand the vicious cycles of poverty and violence. They honestly can’t place themselves in Palestinians’ shoes.I’m going to go ahead and say it, the main reason why they can’t even shed a single tear for a Palestinian is because,not one faint of hope in humankind left in them anymore.  Do we not feel guilty,for doing nothing? Sometimes,a simple thing like,sending a friend an article on how fucked-up the situation in Gaza is and that people are dying could really help.Or prayers,that could help too,you know. Because a lot of people are blinded,not knowing anything that is happening out there.Hundreds of people are dying and hundred of thousands are without electricity and water. Yet,a few people debate on who should we support,Israel or Palestine.Oh for God's sake,open your eyes already,it's not about picking sides anymore. Its about humanity. Just be human. Acknowledge that death is happening around you.Acknowledge that there are people out there who are killed. And that's what's happening in Gaza,useless,meaningless killings and destruction of lives and futures of children.Hundreds of Palestinians  died,thousands are injured,ten of thousands are forced to flee to nowhere. Would you stop and think about how it would be if you are the one who will face death any moment now? And if you can’t look at those facts and be sympathetic, and instead immediately feel like you have to come up with a justification, there is something wrong with your logic and your empathy and your humanity.A lesser evil,we need that.And that is all I have to say.
