Hi. my name is yellowdragon.i've recently joined taking it global just one day ago.that day was thursday may 6th 2010.
I am writing my first blog so feel free to throw out any ideas or post any comments to this blog.The subject is peace and conflict.As With any world issue the words peace and conflict play a part in our world on a day to day basis.Wars,gang violence,female bashing,male bashing,racism,genocide,suicide, even a fight with a teacher or friend,there is peace and conflict.people try to say that the ends justify the means which is complete bullcrap if you're gonna say i wanna shoot down this person because he pissed me off, or the way of they live their life does not comply with how i want them to live so we're just gonna stamp them out.people mix and sometimes twist peace and conflict like chocolate and peanut butter and say some problems have to be solved by means of violence.there is a cycle of violence running rampant in this world and like it or not we see conflict more than we see peace and likewise we encourage conflict more than we encourage peace.Why you ask? think about it. there is violence in tv,movies,books,music,the internet. whre social networking sites like youtube show just about anything.and issues like bullying which happens throughout cyberspace causing people,the victims to either run away from the problem,their life, and they end up killing themselves because they can't take it.When do we as a people say we want to be part of the solution and not the problem?
When do we stop and think that everything we say or do affects the people we know,the people around us,and the people we don't even know.To say i'm smart,or to even give the other tig members the impression like i'm this big jerk who just shoots his off thinking he's got the answers is toatally not where i stand.I'm not a jerk.i don't have the anwsers and i'm certainly no genius.i'm just speaking my mind on a issue that needs to be adressed to people and it is a issue that is long overdue for a resolution.of course one person can't change the world.but hey,one can try.everybody can try and take a shot to make things work so that we may have a shot at one day living in a world where we don't have half the problems we try to aim and solve.We'd have peace. I might write again. again feel free to message me and throw out your ideas and opinions.there is no right or wrong answer.just opinions. people speaking their minds and letting their voices be heard on issues that ARE IMPORTANT TO THEM AND EVERYBODY ELSE.Someone told me words that struck me and gave me a different outlook on life. Im' a student,a dreamer,ainnovative thinker and a adventurer.Looking back at it. She's right. Life is a adventure and we can change the world one voice at a time. Feel free to reply.Until the next post.
