When Will We Discover What We Really Don't Know ?
Isn't It A Shame We Waste So Much Time
Every day people complain about so many things
But they do little about it
They voice their opinion to friends and coworkers
Soon their words fall on deaf ears
Their friends and coworkers do the same
It becomes a pattern of deception
We think we are doing something
Actually we are doing nothing
If you ask the same person who is complaining
To write about the actual problem in question
They look at you as if you are the crazy one
Yet they consume hours even years of their lives
Repeating the same old song and dance routine
Why?
It bothers them so much
Why don't they try to change it ?
Do they like being annoyed ?
God I hope that isn't the answer I am looking for
Maybe just maybe
They are too lazy to do anything
Except shoot their mouth off
They feel like they have accomplished something
The old saying rings true
Talk is cheap
If you doubt what I am saying ?
Prove me wrong
Next time you hear someone moan and complain
Simply ask them to write about their problem in question
You will get that wild eyed look
They think you have two heads
They also believe
They are helpless
I can't do nothing about it
Except complain years on end
How bad something is
They might even have a viable sollution
But more often than not they will just talk
Say a lot of things
A wind bag full of hot air
Almost like a politician that promised you the world
When it comes to deliver
You better not hold your breath
They are just telling you what you want to hear
So lets make one thing clear
If we have problems in the world
Which clearly we do
Instead of pointing the finger
Complaining about every time the same problem happens again
Telling it on deaf ears
Come alive
Let that fire burn a desire
One that leads to something better
Writing about the problem takes effort
That is the first step of many
Seeing the problem by itself
You are able to write a detailed discription
More concrete
Then you can write a number of solutions
Don't narrow them down yet
Even if they are practical
They might have some merit
The solutions can lead you to other ideas
Later on any number of versions can be carried out
We all to begin with a plan
If they work or and how effective is up to the people
To see it through
Adjust it and make any changes if neccessary
People have so many excuses
I call them pets
They stroke them
They pamper them constantly
They feed them daily
They even watch them grow
Why not call them our babies ?
We have nurtured them to exsistence
What is the outcome ?
Nothing more than words spoken among men
Anger and frustration once all bottlec up
Now can be set free
Look around you find a problem you don't like
Throw it out there to someone you know
See if they have the same problem
Maybe they have a solution you don't
Maybe you both have part of the solution
Together you can finally put the problem to rest
Problem solved
One mystery of life
I like to think of it
More of a misery of life
People ignore and will not
I will go as far to say
Won't is no joke
So if you don't except won't
Why would you settle for anything less
Put yourself to the test
I would love to hear from you
Will you take the time
Then again will you be like so many other people
Find a way to easily dismiss all my creative thoughts and ideas
Not because there new and different
Because they make sense and take time
Time you don't have
Well toss me your problem
I will toy with it like a new present on Christmas morning
If you don't have the time
Give your problem to someone who
Will think about it even deeper
Give it some actual consideration and effort
I believe every problem in the world can be solved
People have the answers
They are right under our nose
Most people go for the tissue
Boo hoo
Just blow
Out of sight out of mind
When you have a cold that is all you can think about for hours and sometimes days
Then when it is gone
You give a sigh of relif
Then on with your day
You act as if it never happened
Until next time
Then you repeat the same process
Why ?
Because you know no better
You have done it for some many years
It is your routine
You complain about that cold
To everyone you know
Even strangers you just met
Now do something about it
This is one of many problems I come across
I don't have any quick answers
What I do hold in my hand is part of a riddle
Part of the answer
Do you have the other piece I have been looking for my whole life
Let me see
How many people are there in the world ?
Do we have more problems than people
I don't think so
But....
There is that but again
People want to make you believe it is true
Some people believe there are more problems than people
There are some people who don't care
Other people really do care
But don't get started
If they do something
They don't do it for a long time
They get busy with life
They also want you to believe
Life gets in the way
Well isn't it time ?
We take life by the horns
And ride it off into the sunset
