Headlines- so much tragedy!

Another earthquake in Japan- what is going on over there- feels like determination to destroy that plant!  I would be clearing out of there asap!  So scary!  Have you seen the headlines lately?  A Guy in Brazil opens fire in a school and then shoots himself!  Guy in Florida possibly an ex cop serial killer putting bodies on the beach...
Government threatening to shut down and war breaking out all over Middle east- it is just getting worse!

I met someone last week that was very interesting, he works in Saudi Arabia, we chatted for a bit and he was explaining to me that people actually draw a salary to drum up chaos!  Being naive about this type of behavior I was shocked and amazed.  To him it was common practice, to me, horrifying. I guess to me- I can't imagine this.  Why would people want to surround themselves with death and war, violence and horror?!  Do they not have any self worth, any morals, any conscience? Rhetorical question by the way.  Just so sad that people can be so evil, and so narcissistic!  You have to wonder, are they born that way? Or were they brought up this way- where can we break this cycle and bring some peace to the people!

 Maybe- we can create an island just for these types of people, where there is only one way in- that way they can fight out their demons together and destroy each other instead of all the innocent folks?! Wouldn't that be great.  They can have Disney or someone create a maze of hell for them and we wouldn't have to worry about them causing issues for us!

Use your power for good!!!

As all of you, I have been watching all the news about what is going on over the big blue ocean... my heart is saddened. What these people have to endure is unbelievable. It is bad enough that there is so much violence, as well as the multiple wars going on, we have natural disaster on top of it ( Egypt, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and now Japan). Those come from two different places human and a greater power (however you want to call it). I call that power, God. There are a lot of folks that say this is God (however you refer to him) warning us, ending the world, releasing his fury. Unfortunately those people are ridiculed for their beliefs. Kind of similar to how the war started wouldn’t you say, difference of beliefs. 
I really find it ridiculous that all the source of violence -very simply put- can most times boil down to - someone didn't get their way and are throwing a tantrum. Now they have to lash out at others like a two year old. Wonder how they were brought up to have so much hatred in them. How someone can have such little respect for human life and think that they have the right and the power to do what they want to whom they want without repercussion. We punish our children for similar acts don't we? Time out, sit in a corner, some people yell and unfortunately some people hit. (And hitting a child- a whole other topic that infuriates me- what do you think you are teaching a child that doesn't really understand why what they did was wrong? By hitting them, all you are doing is teaching them to be scared and to hit when someone upsets them! - cause and effect.. same thing.) Anyway I digress. It is just really hard for me to comprehend how some people just think they are on such a pedestal. These dictators with power, that think they have the right to do what they want, and if someone doesn’t listen to them- they can slaughter their own, actually kill people, women, and children – even babies... Really??
