This is just my opinion and I ask that anyone that had not had this exspiance please do not hold it against me for saying what I feel. I use to have complete faith in our legal system and public servants such as police, now though I can not possibly go into details with out putting readers to sleep. Making a long story short I found that most cops which by the way are only human and make mistake just like anyone else on the job, (commonly with that freely used taser gun) But they will stick together and go to extremes including lie to cover their butts and not take responsibility therefore violating harming and sometimes killing innocent victims by those they have been taught to trust the most. And then where does the victim go to seek justice? Who do you go to for protection from toughs who are there to protect and serve? Most victims of police brutality just have to suck it up and get over it. Thank God I believe there are more good and honest police out there but those who are not are the worst kind of criminal.

One day I was on a bus headed downtown to work. A grungy looking guy got on. He pulled out a check book and (apparently) started to balance it. I realized that in the instant before he pulled out his checkbook that I had made a whole life story for him, that he was: a bum, without assets, with nowhere to sleep, and no family. Even though I think that I am not racist and try not to make assumptions about people, this incident really hit me in the gut! It made me know that I am not above categorizing people just like everyone else! And...apparently I do it quickly and without even thinking about it!

I tried to kill myself once... My life wasn't bad or anything... i just didn't want to live anymore and I had been really depressed for a long time... when it came time for me to do the deed i couldn't go through with it... I wasn't afraid of dying or anything, I was afraid of what would be waiting for me on the other side... I rethought my life, my motives and my priorities and realized that i had so much to offer the world... it was that moment that i really became close to God... I'm not as cynical as i used to be. I care more about other people (or at least i try) and i try to do random acts of kindness where before i couldn't care less about helping my fellow man..

childbirth. I see things a whole lot differently now.

I see things everyday that change my opinion of life, and society. I think that life is just one giant experience, and people think about it all wrong. Because that's what you're taught to do! But I think that the generations to come will see the errors in the ways of the world.
