Nice Things

We all love our possessions and material things even some that aren't material. Money, cars, clothes, technology and all that good stuff. I love it too. It's like everything we work hard for and all the value we put into the dollar bill into our valuables. I love my chain, the computer i bought, my phone and everything I have I appreciate it and everything.

...Sometimes I just wish I just didn't have anything at all. No money, no chain, no anything because maybe I would be happy and not have to worry as much about it. Everyone hates it when they get robbed and when people steal from them. I hate it too, but losing things and getting them stolen are two things I just can't get over regardless of what it is. About a month ago my student ID got stolen and someone used the money in my account to buy lunch. I was out money and I card i needed, and it was probably a "friend" who stole it. I never kept anything in my back pack because it might get stolen like in 9Th grade when I left my ipod in there and someone took it during P.E. Probably someone I knew too. About a year ago someone broke into my house and stole my computer and some of my parent's valuables. A few days later I got everything back. I was so happy to have something returned to me and I appreciated our police force because it's a can't live with them, can't live without them relationship. Even though I got my stuff back just having to go through all that was a pain and to find out it was a friend who I let in my house before along with some other kid who stole my stuff. It hurts and it's so fucked up. A few weeks after people got into my car, all they got was some change but still. After everything when it happened I always felt like I wish I just didn't have anything and things like this wouldn't happen and I would be happier and I wouldn't have to always worry. I wouldn't have to always check I have my stuff, ever day when I get home I wouldn't have to walk through my door and hope everything is still there, I wouldn't have to worry about people being in my home.

It's ironic because this all happened in Weston, the rich place with more money and higher class residents. I lived in Fort Lauderdale for 13 years and never had my house robbed. Maybe it was because we didn't really have anything nice for people to take. I think about all this because my friend got robbed way worse than all of those combined and doubled, twice in a row the past weekend in Southwest Ranches. I remember my uncle and aunt got robbed at gun point in my old neighborhood while I was two blocks away so are we safe anywhere? Can you ever avoid this? I hate it.That's why I don't steal because I know how bad it feels.

Contradiction

Life is ironic, I've said it before. There's a lot of things we call or do that seem to contradict each other. There are simple ones like we drive on a park way and park on a driveway. There are plenty especially over the media broadcasts like people saying don't watch TV and they're on TV saying it. The other day I noticed a big one. It's against the law to be over .08 BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration) and drive. Drinking and driving is punishable by law and people see it as one of the worst things someone can do because they bring endangerment to themselves and the surrounding. You see alcohol commercials on TV, I don't know why because kids can't drink, but it's fine whatever the problem is billboards with alcohol. The same people who tell you don't drink and drive have you think and drive about their product. I know it's just a sign and people can stop and keep alcohol in their car, but ads are there to make people want whatever their advertising so how does this affect the driver who just wants to relax, get away and have fun?

Team Sports

One of the best forms of art there is. No better way of getting a group of people together than team sports. I started practicing for football at the bay and I just "feel" so much more. I would never be proud of my school if it wasn't for this program. Coming together as family a group of individuals who don't even know each other is an amazing thing.

As I'm writing this I'm at Dolphin Stadium watching Puerto Rico Vs. U.S.A. in the world series. A week ago I would have told you I hated baseball. Now I watched two games on TV and the third here at the stadium. I'm watching the highlights of when japan beat Cuba in the last world final. Just the feeling from the past footage and everything got to me so much I had to blog about it. When they won the happiness and joy of everyone on the team. Nothing else in the world even mattered. Its good to forget and just be happy. Listen go watch a game and get into it and join a team and love it.

Selfish

When is it okay to be selfish? Is it ever?
I have these middle of the nights thoughts and the other night it came to me. Is it selfish to have all the knowledge in the world and not tell a soul because of what we would do with it?
It's kind of sad how you can make something with good intentions for humanity and you see the exact thing you created for good used for bad.
Is it that wrong to want to do everything for yourself and care just about yourself?
After having nothing is it that bad to want everything?
Aren't we programmed to survive for ourselves.
To have beauty and want to keep it for yourself, I think that's selfish but who are we to take what someone makes for our personal use. It's selfish how we profit from someones pain, but it is how we gain.

Serious People

Why do people get so mad at my jokes? THEY'RE FUNNY! People get so serious and I'm just like chill haha. If people aren't getting serious they think I'm serious. For example the people I started hanging out with new people and some of them like Emanuel like to think everything I say serious and get all these misconceptions. Or when I'm playing around with my friends girlfriends and they take it for real and tell their boyfriends/my friends and they get mad at me. People need to relax and chill. I guess I can see myself getting mad about jokes, but come on. If you know me, you know I laugh at everything and can make a joke out of anything.

I remember once when I with my girlfriend at the time and she was getting so hard while I was just having a good time in the bad situation. You see we were stuck at this food place and it started raining before we started walking to the mall. She was all pissed and just ugh ruining her day while me, the optimistic one, was all happy saying it could be way worse because it could. I've been in worse situations. She then was like "my god don't you take anything serious" and that's when I realized I'm like my dad because people always said that to him and he was never going to become something. It's like what's the point of being sad and miserable there's nothing you can do about it, and it could be much worse. Don't worry, be happy. I think this is why in V for Vendetta I loved he part when Evey ask V if he took anything serious after he was joking and he says that he truly cares when he jokes about things or is serious, I don't remember i just loved that part.

Marriage

It might sound dumb at first, but what's the point? If your with the person and happy why must you get married? Is it just something people are so accustomed to doing in society or what? I just feel in America today people should chill with getting married and just be happy to have found love. The divorce rates are so high. Why? What's the difference if you get married now or in ten years? The love is going to prevail regardless and if not then be happy you didn't marry. I just think that if I loved someone enough to have gone all the way and you divorce I don't know how I would...be. I know it's like a business and people want to make money, but come on there should at least be some kind of waiting period of dating or something. I guess the next company would put less time and get the couples, but that's America for you. As of right now I don't know if I even want to get married, but I'll probably change my mind.... Correction she will change my mind ha ha.

Also it's messed up for someone to get half after the divorce. What kind of BS is that. You should leave with the same amount you came in with or equal amount NOT HALF. It's just messed up especially if you didn't do anything, but marry the person and divorce. Sure there was love, but be happy with what you had. Come on!

"Life Is A War That Finds Peace In Death"
-Kevin Arregoces

I created that quote a while ago and perfected a little bit ago. What do you guys think? You think it's true? As I write this I think life is good, the best things are worth fighting for. No one likes the things that come easy, but give up when it seems too hard. Recognition and a good job can make someone go far. We all get cards in life, we just have to know how to play them right. Trials & tribulations, experience, and trial & error. You know we all see the same shit just through different eyes. What can I do, but stay true? No certainty, only opportunity. A lot of people don't know me, how I can be so passionate and deep, a side they're so surprised when they see. Stop looking with your eyes and start seeing. Reality is only what is presented to us. I hate it when people take my jokes seriously. Don't worry, be happy.

"Love makes you blind like staring at the sun during an eclipse"
-Kevin Arregoces.

What about that one? I love music and making it, proving people wrong, writing. People fear what they don't understand, hate what they can't conquer. If you don't have anything to live for, you best find something to die for. What do I have to live or die for? What is my legacy? Why are we limited? We do we brain wash ourselves to think we aren't limitless. I hate how good rap & hip-hop goes unappreciated and classified as tasteless. You can be a human being, I'm a human doing. I am.... That's the shortest correct sentence in the English language. Why do we insist on separating ourselves and believing in this human superiority?

Who? What? Where? When? Why?
Never accept, always question.
