It's been a while since I have sat down gathered my thoughts and shared them with everyone a lot of things have happened in the world and my life they say sometimes that writing is therapeutic and for me it could not be more true through my eyes I have seen so many things that I thought I would never see and yet I am optimistic and at peace with life yes like everyone else I still strive to be the best that I can be but now I know that I have a place and purpose in this world and that purpose is to be the best “Me” that I can be it is hard to know what is going on with someone else and what their mindset is when they commit various acts but this is one thing that I do know children have been exposed to a lot more than when I was as a kid coming up and that kind of exposure has led to kids committing acts that we think of as unspeakable but I have always said that everything is learned if you give a child love, attention, stability and knowledge of their place in the world and for the most part they will be okay on the flipside if there is no guidance  no teaching or the prospect of being anything more than what you are and the environment you are in then it becomes a difficult almost impossible road to navigate I myself am not the person I thought I would be but I am the best me that I  can be and sometimes kids get lost because of the peer pressure to do what their friends are doing and these days it has been amplified as kids have gone from ringing doorbells and running to carjacking and murder most people never thought they would see such things but every book in history details unrest in the world for various reason lessons have been taught but what have we learned so history repeats itself and this tumulus time in our history will pass the question is how far will we sink and will our descendants learn from us.
