I have been having the hardest time with blogging. I just don't have much to talk about. I don't know if it is just because nothing interest me or just the things that we find interesting as a society is just mundane. I haven't blogged at all this year. I have been in Asia for almost two years and I feel as if I have not done anything of importance with my life. I know that this should be a time of great opportunity but with the way the ecomony looks it is all depressing. Those in power are pretending like things are getting better. Maybe for them because they are not going hungry like s many who have lost so much these past months. All I see is people sitting around twittering each other about what they are going to do this weekend. It repulse me to see this apathy in our society. We have become so consumed by Jon and Kate, the Octo-mom and what David Letterman has said about one of Sarah Palins children, that we forget that people are really suffering. What are we who have doing about it? Are we sitting around twittering about going to the bathroom. I am not saying anything is wrong with twittering but when it is taking precedence over human suffering, then we need to ask ourselves, "What in the Hell is wrong with me, am that selfish and dispassionate about what is going on in the world?" This is why I believe that I have gotten to this point of just disbelief. The point of tis missive I guess if anyone is reading this is; What are we doing with ourselves as a people to help those less fortunate?
