When I was younger, I used to have big plans on how I could help people with my life. My general philosophy was that I was going to make damn sure I left the world in better condition than I found it...but it's impossible.
Why do we all give up? Sure, we never say it, such things are improper. But we do, we compromise. We give in. We grow too fat and lazy to pursue dreams. They're so intimidating aren't they? I mean holy smokes, just look at what I used to think I'd do...I can't do that without global support. One man used to do a lot back in the day, but now with no one believing in anything nothing gets done. Men could cast off their mortality and become the center of an idealistic movement back in the day. Now though? No chance. People have been taught since they were young to not be a sucker, don't fall for anything, and realize that everyone's trying to scam each other. But with a generation of atheists who think they know what's up, we're all screwed. No dreams can be accomplished by men of that caliber, we need to be naive. We need to be willing to be wrong. Faith, not even of God but of ourselves, that's is what is required. But we don't want to believe in ourselves because that's the worst thing to be wrong about. We aren't willing to fail there. And so we don't try.
