Learn.

Child, you'd best learn to assume responsibility.
The world does not,
Will not
Bend to your every whim.
You will not get everything that you want,
Will want,
And ever wanted.

Things will not be done for you.

You must learn that it is not others that should be taking the blame for your faults.

You must stop acting like the world owes you everything.

The world owes you nothing.

If anything,
You owe the world
Your life.

You came in to this world and the world provided
But the world can just as easily take you away.

Appreciate what you have instead of taking advantage of it.
Appreciate who you have instead of taking advantage of them.

Be kind to others
You won't have anyone if you stay as you are.

Don't expect people to help you.
Don't expect people to do things for you.
Don't expect.

You will be disappointed.

The world will not care.

I hope you learn something when you leave for school.
I don't just mean your classes, but life lessons too.
Why?
Because if you don't,
You will have a very miserable and lonely life.

Good luck.

You will need it.


New Mini Series!

Hello, everyone!

I apologize for my lack of posts throughout the school year.  As you may have noticed by my previous post, I did intend to post something.  Unfortunately, something must have come up for me to have left a post like that hanging.  Normally, I would have ranted until I've said all I had to say instead of leaving it there.

Anyway, I am back.  I am back from school for the summer, I am back at work, I am back to looking for more or better work, and I am looking for time to relax.  In the meantime, I will be trying to set up a mini series on my blog similar to what my boyfriend has done.  I will be starting "An Introduction to Your Own Existential Crisis" series.  I don't expect it to be too long or short and there will likely be some other posts in between so we will not be losing the flavour that this blog already has.

I'm sorry for the lull.  But, I am back to do more and say more.  So let's get this ball rolling again, shall we?

I appreciate all of you who have waited for my posts.  I will definitely be setting up some more to come.

Ciao for now,
Dusk
So, it seems I've written this back at the end of February.  It is quite a bit late and I do still think that the situation is ridiculous.  As it has been four months, I do forget what I was intending to write next, but it does not take away from how strongly I feel about the subject.

All right, guys.  I'm going to get a little bit ranty today.

So, an acquaintance of mine recently commented on a post on Facebook about this article.  I suggest that you read it before we move on.

Now that you've read it, all I can say is that I don't understand how anyone can possibly be so dense as to not think that gay people do not buy things.  Even more so, the argument "they didn't tell us" is such a poor argument that I don't even need to explain it.  It's so juvenile. 

Gay people are just as human as straight people, bisexual people, trans* people, and what have you.
