Life!!!

What is wrong with the world today? A couple of days ago, I heard about the paleta man that got shot for 30 dollars, can you believe that? That man was just doing his job to put food on the table for him and his family. How can someone be so stupid to take someone's life, and even more deppressing for 30 misserable dollars. I heard that that man had a two year old daughter and he was about to go away on vacation to spend time with his family; now there is a little girl without a father and a wife without a husband.
Man, that makes me mad, what makes people think that they can take someone's else life just in the blink of eye? I bet that when that man woke up he didn't think oh I am going to die today! Can you imagine what that would be like? Knowing that you going to die and that you can't do anything to stop it from happening. As I wake up each and everyday, I see that we are slowly ending with the world we live in. Wether is someone killing someone else, people making money taking advantage of other people or just plain killing each other for some unreasonable reason is just plain sad.
Then there is the war, we are fighting for oil and terretory and basically killing each other to survive. Maybe is the other way around, we survive to kill each other. That man did not deserve to die like that. Sometimes I question our society and even the human race as a whole. The human race supposely is one of reason, but sometimes we do things that not even the most primitive and ferous animals do. I am afraid for what lies ahead for the human race as a whole, lately, it seems that we are more concerned with ourselves and blind to see what our selfishness does to others.
Today, I heard that two more paleta man got assalted once again, luckily no one was hurt. According to Telemundo, the guilty party of the crime threaden that if the paleta men didn't give them their money, they will take out their weapons and shoot them. I was really close to losing my dad because of people that have no cosideration for others. My dad was driving home from work, when about three men got out of a car with guns and put it to his head then got in my dad's car and took off. We are already losing what we love and care for just by the nature of life and the things that make up the world we call home. Why should we speed up the process? The truth is that things will never get better until we take action against things like this. Have you realized that at any moment we can lose what we value, appreciate, and love the most, but the one to blame for that is not God, life, or mother nature when in fact, is us that end with what we value, appreciate, and love the most.
The end will eventually come and when it does ask yourself Did I deserve to have the previlage of being alive? Remember there is only one life for everyone please care for your own life and others because when the end comes you can't go back in time and correct your mistakes, vindicate your sins, or say I am sorry to the ones you hurt. Life is hard I know, but what is even harder is not having a chance to have a life and even sadder when we take that chance for others to have one. Live your life as you pleas, but do not ruin someone's else life.

If you really want to fight the war against violence in OC, get more of your friends and fellow Sunset students to volunteer to make the community a better place. There is no reason why we have to live in fear of getting shot in our own neighborhood. If the city of Dallas sees that people in OC care about their community they might do more to help. OC is your home dont let it be destroyed by violence and hate.
