The lens a baby looks through with his new born eyes is something magical.
Every color, object, tree is perceived as fascination.
Never before have they seen those shades of blue, felt the summer breeze on their face, or the sun’s warm hugs around their body.
Everything in this world is beautiful, is wonderful, is something they never believed that could be real.

They love the purest, smile the sincerest, they are as innocent as a soul could be.

But,
It makes me wonder what happened.
How everything so beautiful in this world is second to everything ugly.

A boy plans to cheat on his girlfriend because he's in a frat.
A girl decides to leave with another guy because he was more attractive while her sorority sisters call out to her “ You go girl”.
A man objectifies a women's body,
A woman objectifies a man's body.

****
****
******
Jealousy
Abuse
Suicide
Greed
Adultery

So many ugly things that destroy people, that lead them to destroy others.  
At what age do we fail to see the beauty on earth?
When did we start losing that lens we once had as a baby?
That human beings are incredible beings; that life itself is a gift that we were given to witness all the incredible miracles and to simply sit back and watch gives us pure joy.

When did it all change?

I've been lost for awhile. Trying to figure out where I fit, and with whom I fit in with.
Drinking, partying, being around people who lose themselves in these types of environments has changed me.

It's made me sadder.
Less hopeful.
Angrier.
Lost.
Stuck.

Maybe I haven't found the people I'm meant to be with.
Maybe I need to find people who see the world through a different lens, who see people as something more than just objects.

Perhaps my journey starts with this realization.
