How Many People…

The world is kind of a big place. There are kind of a lot of people here.
I wonder how many people are having the time of their lives right now.
I wonder how many people are with people they love.
I wonder how many people are sleeping with a full belly.
I wonder how many people are in terror.
I wonder how many people are living in wonder as they discover something new.
I wonder how many people are doing something they’d never want to be doing when they meet their maker.
I wonder how many people are having their hearts broken.
I wonder how many people are having their first kiss.
I wonder how many people are listening to the angry cry of a newborn pierce the air.
I wonder how many of those people think that it’s a good thing that those babies are born.
I wonder how many people are living a perfect moment that they wish they could pause and keep forever.
I wonder how many people are hitting rock bottom and losing all hope.
I wonder how many people are living their dreams.
I wonder how many people’s dreams crashed and burned like the World Trade Center.
I wonder how many people are happy and carefree.
I wonder how many people are lost inside their imagination in a place that’s better than their current physical place or situation.
I wonder how many people are tripping so hard they can see the face of God.
I wonder how many people are getting their 15 minutes of fame.
I wonder how many people are bored of going through the same routine every day.
I wonder how many people are right at the point of death.
I wonder…

Fuck this world
Fuck everything that you stand for

I wonder a lot, too. The world is such an unbelievable place. Full of intense joy and intense sadness, of intense pleasure and intense pain. “Misery is self-created; so, too, is joy. So create joy and disdain misery and unhappiness. And this is within your power.” One of my favorite quotes. If I will, then it shall be so-and I will that my life be full of joy. So mote it be.

Wow, I thought I thought too much. Well, I don’t think you’re thinking too much. It’s nice to know someone thinks of those things. What would happen if everyone thought about other people for a change…all at the same time..if for one second everyone was being selfless and caring? ttyl.
