WTH, world

Black and white

The conflict the world can't seem to get over

Why can't we all just be people?

This is no difficult task, to accept others

Does it actually matter where someone comes from? Does it matter what their race is? What about their ethnicity? What about the color of their skin? Does it matter what their size is? Does it matter who they love? What about their sexuality? Does that matter too? Oh, what about their reproductive organs? 

The answer is no.

It does not matter.

At least, it should not.

But to many it does. 

And it changes their minds about people they don't even know.

So, as humans, let's begin to realize that these are not reasons to look down on someone.

Let's raise people up instead.

  • My vow

    I will fight forever

    When it seems like all is lost I will fight harder

    When I trip and fall I will bleed words and be stronger

    When I can no longer write I will speak until they cower

  • Is it magic?

    I have never been quite sure if books were truly just words on paper, the ideas of authors who are just ordinary people or if they are magic incarnate.  

    Because they have never, ever just been words on paper to me.
