A Story?

I really hate America. I hate what this country does to people who narrow minded it makes them. My parents consistently state how I'm on the wrong path when I've pretty much followed the path the laid out for me. Everything decided for me, the college I went to, all the way down to how I'm living now. And every day due to living with them I have to hear retarded shit.


Did you guys know a kid you tutored and were family friends with is gay? I wonder how that would change your perspective of reality and shake your homophobia. I wonder how much more narrow minded you could become about the world. One of you sits around and watches sports all day and works a dead in white collar job while the other constantly remains stressed.

I don't claim to be perfect, but I know what I want in life. Whenever I watch a good movie and game, and feel the cathartic nature of the characters that's what I wish to do. Tell the ultimate story, a story everyone will want to listen to.

I may not be perfect, but no person is, the greatest heroes in the world, fiction or non-fiction have flaws as well. After playing what I can conceive as one of the most epic games on the planet, I realize, no....I know that humanity has a place for redemption. When one can finally see past their own egocentric perspective of life, they can finally realize the true nature of life.

We all make mistakes, we all live with some amount of ignorance, and we all fall down. Life is the ultimate story: a story of friends, and wisdom. And everyone has a story to tell.
