What to write about, I really don’t know. I guess you can call this a free write. I’m free to write about anything I want, but what if I don’t want to write about anything I want? What is I want to write about something in particular and I don’t know what that is…yet. I know that I’m growing concerned about what is going on in the world and yet, these problems, these threats of war and violence, seem to always come and go.  I wish that everybody could just get along. But that is not how this world works. People by nature are neither good or bad. But as they grow older. As they grow accustomed to surviving in their particular environment that shapes their focus.

Even the villain. The enemy is not evil from all point of perspective. More often than not, their motives are pure or justified. It only becomes wrong or evil, when it brings harm to others.

But then this thought alone, calls into question the morals of the heroes. They are always displayed as role models, as someone to look up to, but more often than not, these heroes are not any better than their counterparts.

In fact, most when it comes down to it are the same. What may I ask you is the difference between an, American soldier, a French soldier, a British soldier, a Russian soldier etc.

Nothing, absolutely nothing. They are all soldiers. They’re nationalities are different and thus their allegiances are different. So, if any of these countries go to war with each other, who is right, who is wrong. Who is the Hero, who is the Villian?  It all depends on your personal perspective.

But for these soldiers, they do as they are ordered. In their own minds, they are the heroes, the ones who are attacking and the ones who are defending. Now things could happen that could change the mind set of these soldiers, butt for the most part – emotions and the right and the wrong rarely come in to play. Now of course, I could be speaking out of my ass, this is afterall my own opinion.

But let’s see if it can be simplified even further. Now as far as I know, I’m not the villain in someone’s story. As far as I can see, I’m a fairly well-liked guy, a bit of an odd ball, but what else would you expect for the artistic type. Anyway, all that can change with one simple action. For example, when I’m driving to work, I accidently hit a child as she or her runs out in the street to get a ball or I get distracted and cause a major accident. Where several people die…did I just become the villain of their story or perhaps something tragic happens to my wife or my nieces or nephews…. And I decided to justify this wrong…have I now become the villain or the hero…it all depends on what follows afterwards?

I guess what I’m trying to say is that most villains didn’t stat out villains. They started out as heroes, visionaries, common people who wanted a better life for their people.  Perhaps somewhere along their journey they crossed the line. But who’s line did they cross. That I believe is the real question

In conclusion, there of course will be those who do senseless violence and for that, no matter their reasons, must be held accountable, but then there are those who are branded villains simply because they don’t fit into a certain agenda and finally there are those who see an injustice and decide to take a stand and in doing so invoke the wrath of those who call the shots from behind the scenes.

So, then the problem becomes, who do you trust and who do you not trust? This where common sense and research come into play. Either side will try to convince you that they are right. View both opinions with an open mind and then decide what you believe is right or wrong. That is all this comes down too and now I’m getting tired. So, I’m going to correct this, post this and then go to bed.
