children of the world.
In a world where all we see are children getting hurt, parents harming their children, parents going out and doing drugs and drinking while leaving their precious little creations at home? It is hard to see yourself being viewed as a great parent because you treat your little creations with love, respect, understand, and most importantly like they are worth something in life. It is hard to see yourself as a great person because you choose to raise a child in this type of day and age.
They were brought into this world without a care in the world, and they are forced to deal with the pain, the murder, the drugs, the theft, the beatings, the child abuse, and most of all the lack of compassion that the world displays for one another. It seems to me that no matter how hard one tries to prevent their children from seeing the bad in the world, or prevent them from going through what other children have to go through, the more they get hurt. One can keep their children in a bubble, but eventually that child is going to break that bubble and everything that you have tried so hard to prevent them from being around, is going to start pouring in like a rogue wave hitting a ship at 900 miles an hour. It is going to tear them apart, it is going to leave immense damage, and it is going to leave them feeling helpless as they drown in the pain of all the heartache around them. As those same children grow and become adults themselves, they are going to realize that life is hard.
That life is going to knock them down, like is going to kick them in the fucking dirt, knock their teeth down their throat, but only the strong are going to force themselves to get up out of the dirt, look the heartache and the pain in this world in the face and say fuck you. Fuck you for all the things that you have ever done to me, fuck you for causing me to have such a hard life. Fuck you for allowing me to deal with all this, and most of all thank you for teaching me how to be strong, and over come all the pain and heartache in the world, as well as teaching me that I can do anything I want to do regardless of what other children have gone through.
