"And still I see no changes. Can't a brother get a little peace? There's war on the streets & the war in the Middle East. "

If there were to be something that I could rid Henry Clay of it would be all the hate, judgement, and cruelty. Sounds like a Miss Universe Pageant answer doesn't it? But they're all there in their entirety. You see it in the classroom and you see it in the halls. People bringing down other people so they may somehow put themselves on a pedestal of petty unimportance. For what, the praise of their peers? Kids bully kids and that's what they are, still kids. The kids create outcasts who keep their feelings cold and contained. Until one day the cap comes off and the crying cant heal the pain anymore. This has never happened to me but we see it in the news when somebody breaks and suddenly we're all singing the blues. It should never resort to that, the rat-ta-tatat, when all they really needed was a pat on the back. We've all had those days where we felt really crappy, so just do the Mcferrin and "Don't Worry Be Happy." Nobody's perfect, but would it be worth it to send somebody on a hurt trip, just so you can feel better on the surface? Some things never change but it starts with you, so stand up and be one of the few.
