All Fall Short

How far has humanity fallen? It's taken quite a nose dive in morality, manners, and so many other areas that used to be such a big deal.



In relationships for example have changed dramatically. Relationships used to be so innocent. Now everything is out in the open. Few if no boundaries are set people go through significant others faster than ever in history. Not that I'm one to brag, I'm most definitely NOT perfect in the least. I've made far too many mistakes to count.

The fact that I can walk down the hallways at my school and hear more profanities than I could count on both of my hands makes me sad. Probably the greatest reason I'm sad for this, is that I contribute to it. Many, many people today would say profanity isn't a very big deal, that they're just words, but that's the same as me saying, "Oh, it's only one drink," that leads to a drinking binge. The tongue is that hardest human attribute to tame. Becuase speaking comes so naturally and is something we use every minute of every day for our entire lives, we get into a habbit of just opening our mouths and letting our thoughts spew out. Now, that sounds awfully condemning and I apologize to those offended. But when I think about myself and the way I speak and carry myself, I'm ashamed.

From this moment on I shall endeavor to do better and improve myself. Only by improving myself can I improve the world and help others.

I don't want to sound arrogant or sound as though I'm perched atop my high horse, I'm simply so sick of myself and so appalled at my behavior recently that I'm making an effort to change. It will not be easy that is for sure...but I will try.

Some very adorable lyrics for my readers:

If I was a sailor I'd sail the seven seas
To tell you, "Baby, I don't want you to leave."
You see the world is such a sad place and
Without your pretty face
I'm sure it's gonna end up much worse.

And I know that you'll see someday that I can't live without you.
And I know what I say is true cuz I'm so stuck on you girl

I'm in love! from the first time I let my eyes on you
I sure do do do do do now
There's nothing I can do
I'm in love for the first time I let my lips on yours
Now you're walking out my door
and there's nothing I can do.

I'm in love with you.
