How can one have a dream when they cannot sleep? How can one find the will to get up every morning, and face challenges head strong without the fear or failure Do these people have super powers? Are these people considered hero’s? Well if they are, then they are just like the rest of us, mask on facing adversity Everyone is a hero, and everyone is a villain Good intentions are an arbitrary construct created by society to be able to distinguish a universal morality For example, most people would say that intentionally killing or hurting others is wrong, and those who take part in such horrific actions should face severe consequence But what if you had to **** to save a loved one What if you had to **** to protect your life Would it still be wrong? Should those people still face the same consequences Your intentions are good, but your actions tell another story How do we define what is just? Everything happens for a reason, that’s what most people would believe But why does there need to be a reason Sometimes things just happen We have no control We are simply insignificant specs of dust desperately trying to understand the world we love Like most things in this world, we humans live in a cycle It’s continuous and never-ending Just as precipitation leads to evaporation History repeats itself Hate breeds more hatred Love leads to more heartbreak And the bird fly’s south to escape the cold winters
