The Burdens of Being Upright

madness

so this is how its going to be? every few days hear an announcement of yet another person shot by crazy mcsniper? i guess i should be a little more scared or upset that a 13 year old kid almost died this morning within a mile from where i was sitting doing math problems, but........ i'm not. i don't really feel anything more than "this sucks". oh well. i guess i should be more scared that an area i have past by almost every day of my life has housed a man with a rifle but........ i'm numb. i dont know...... i'm desensitized to it all. yeah, i could be shot and killed tomorrow just walking down the street but there's nothing i can do about it. there's no sense living in fear. i'd rather not die, i like being alive, but if i do die well......... ok, then i die. there's no use getting worked up about what i cannot control.
