Shining Thru

Dreams…….

The soft pastels that fade into the mind

The light that comes from within when you flip off the switch outside

The stars come out

In your dreams is peace

The ocean beat that calms the soul

The clouds of silver, fluffy and sweet

Sunny and beautiful on the cliff side

The colored stones reflect in the clear brilliant blue of the water

Everything drifting and floating

Nothing to hurry for

Nothing to distract

Simply blissful ….

Frustration building as you count to ten

A cannon ready to explode at any moment

Deep breaths, one…two…three…

Doesn’t help, you can still feel it rising inside

The frustration and anger that is screaming inside

Climbing and fighting to break free

Mounting and Building until it consumes

Climbing and screaming until you drown

Crushing and overwhelming

The tension builds to a new intensity

You need to let it out, you need to scream

Scream with not just your voice

But allow your whole body the outlet

The vent that is needed for all of the steam

The frustration builds as you sit there

Wanting to move without knowing where

Without having a purpose you feel antsy

Needing a release from the frustration

You go on anyway, not having another option

The only choice is to be frustrated or forget it…

Who ever said ignorance is bliss is a liar.  I hate not knowing what is going on….even more than that I hate it when there are ignorant people around me….maybe some people can be blissful while ignorant, but not me.  At the very least their ignorance pains me.  I hate it when I feel like I’ve lost some of my intelligence because an ignorant person was around me too much that day….sometimes you’re stuck around stupid people and it sucks. 

Ignorance is only hurting the world.  I can’t imagine the changes that would happen if we could educate people on the issues of the world and actually have that information soak in.  All of the education in the world is never going to help our society if people aren’t willing to admit that we have problems in our society.  But nobody wants to admit that they or anyone around them is stupid or ignorant….

Some people like to gain knowledge and squash the ignorance in its tracks, where as other people just like to ignore the problems of the world, even while those things are staring them in the face.  I don’t understand how people can live like that…choosing to be ignorant.  How can a person not desire knowledge, I thought it was human nature for the longest time…and yet I see people choosing ignorance over acknowledging issues in the world every day.  Some people want to live in a book that is only painted with the pictures of their mind, their issues, their beliefs….not ever accounting for the fact that there are people who live outside of their eyesight, that there are people who don’t feel the way they feel, who don’t believe what they believe, who don’t know what they know…who know more than what they know.  I can’t believe that some people can be so ignorant and so vain that they seriously cannot see beyond their own front yard so to speak.
