My wish for a better world

I am not going to fill this blog with emotional crap about various things in life that are often beyond my control. But as I read about this series of executions of Saddam Hussein and his allies of which one was decapitated, I can't help but renew my wish for a better world. A world free from all these social maladies and a world that thrives on love, hope, and camaraderie. But considering that this wish would always remain a wish and that I am pretty sure I won't be seeing my wish getting fulfilled in my lifetime, this just makes the whole thing a lot hopeless.

It is of my knowledge that there are things I cannot change and this I have to accept. What pains me more is that nobody is serious about putting this horrible violence to an end. Much as I want my grand grandchildren to live a happy and peaceful life in the future, I just can't be so sure that I would be able to give that to them considering the current situation.

I get a little depressed everytime I read stuff like that. This is the reason why I don't want to read news these days, but just can't help it when my folks talk about it over dinner.

The world, I know, is going to get a lot worse and as much as I don't want that to happen, I am powerless over it's will. What I can do is to take care of the things that I have been given and love the people that are close to my heart.

Hello World!

Whew! I should have done this a long time ago. I know I am not that young anymore to blog but I don't give a damn. I don't think there is ever a rule in blogging concerning age? LOL. Can someone be too old to blog? Hahaha, the fact that I can still read and type and blog speaks volumes of my capability to do a lot of things, still.

Anyway, I just realized that it is kinda off to speak about old age in the first paragraph of my very first post. But I just did, so it's there to stay. Not that I am too old to press Backspace or Delete. LOL. It's done so i'll leave it that way.

I am optimistic that I am going to like this blogging activity. I hope to update this as often as I want to. This will be the scratchpad where I jot down the things that interest me. And since I am into a lot of things, then I think I will be writing about many things as well. I just hope there would be daring souls who can afford to read the crap that I am going to write.
