A simple journal entry. Sorry about no rhyme scheme.

It is so sad to see so many people go so astray, to bring down others to gain power, to take advantage of them for their own personal gain. I wish the world would realize that power isn't everything unless you have power over yourself. People claim all the time that they would handle things differently if it were them, that they would be able to control themselves and the power, when, in reality, no man was fit to govern another. No man on earth has the right to cast the first stone. No man should be cast out because they are different. The only one that is fit to govern you is the person in the mirror. Every life is worth the same as another. Everyone has a choice on how we behave and we as humans constantly forget that. The only way anyone can change the world and the people around them is to change yourself... 

Author's Note

Again sorry for no rhyme scheme and how it isn't poetic. I don't think it is necessarily a story though. Hope you like it :)

Great write and very relevant area too, very thought provoking area I may say, be the change you wish to be in this world is easy to say, but so hard to follow, but won't say it is mission impossible, one our teachers said give to HIM mission impossible and let him make HIMPOSSIBLE, if we can not change ourselves, aspire for the change at least, it may make us reach some where

I love these little "rants" of yours (for a lack of a better word). They are so straightforward and in your face. They confront you and challenge you. Keep writing them!

[Sapphire Naylor]

Haha thank you so much :) Ya I tend to write them a lot just to get what I'm feeling out of my system. I will defiantly keep that in mind :)

(In reply to your note) there may be no rhyming but this is still a poetic, well written piece, love the concept and one we can all reflect on, nice write :)

Poetry doesn't have to rhyme, so no worries. What you've said in this is very true. There are too many selfish, power hungry people in this world..

Power is nothing without people. Words are nothing without people. Callous beings we are.
Great points made friend
