Sorry

I wonder why are people so fake to each other. It is against several peoples religion to lie yet they do it so much. And what makes it worse is the fact that these lies are embraced even cherished. Let's just be honest here. If someone that you've seen only a few times in your life and you barely even know their name makes the statement my mother died or my aunt died or i got into a car accident you don't really care. You're not sorry. To tell the truth you might be a little annoyed by their crying or whatever. Why do people say they are sorry when they are not. I try hard not to say things I don't mean. If someone isn't welcome or whatever I don't say it. If something is not nice I don't say it.

I hate it when people say they are sorry and don't mean it. The power of that word has been lost to us. It has become nothing more than a "polite" little phrase that means nothing.

And that is my point hardly anything stands for something. Not that it ever did. The suffering of a child on TV doesn't move you to give money its the rambling on of some stupid heifer who is dressed far better than some of the people in her home country are. What is the purpose of pain, and uncertainty, and death.

There is no purpose.

There may be no divine reason. The best we can do is carry on with our trivial little lives. Try to be nice to each other. Try to make our own purpose. Live happily, peacefully. Religion doesn't secure your soul. Being mindful of your own spirituality does. Make your place in the stars.
