this world is what we make it
as our bodies are what we eat
we expect to cheat our way through life
assuming we cant be beat
while we feed this planet full of hate
and expect too much in return
we all burn in waiting for the day
when all is over and we've learned

This is true, and the sad truth is that history repeats itself and of all the documentation, all the knowledge & and teaching throughout the years...we do know already, we know enough to make the changes, to do what's right...as a whole...to ourselves and to our world...so why don't we?
Because it's not convienient? It's not easy? People today are too spoiled and too lazy to do anything about it.
Ever see the Futurama episode where garbage is heading for Earth...that's a joke on reality. Peoples mentality has to change before any chages can be made. Too many people are still throwing gum wrappers out of car windows. -

i have seen that Futurama and it wouldn't surprise me if at some point we did throw out trash into space though a sad thought it is. i've done three and going on four projects on global warming and was actually just watching The Day After Tomorrow. call me a tree hugger but whatever, i really do think it's sad the way we live our lives and i hope someday that changes for the better.

It is so true. We must learn patience now and use it today. Use it on the next person we meet. The next situation we are in. That's the only way, we can change the world, today. Great job.
