I hate this blogging spree. It’s nearly driving me nuts. Not only did I miss church. I missed Bahrain GP as well!! Hamilton is amazing man. I was only keeping track of the score between champion Alonso and traitor Kimi but little did I know he is now tied for 1st place with both of them. He’s only had 3 F1 races in his life so far ok! Anyways, I have already posted 5 posts. Only one more to go. It’s 12 past and I have work in the morning. I was going to save the last one for tomorrow, until I read this in the paper.
MARYLAND: A two-year old boy was severely burned after he went down a slide that had been splashed with industrial strength drain cleaner by vandals at an elementary school playground. The boy was scheduled for surgery yesterday and will be hospitalized for several weeks. Someone had broken into the school and stolen several bottles of drain cleaner and splashed it all over the playground equipment, authorities said. Peyton suffered 2nd & 3rd degree burns, mostly on his legs, from the cleaner which contained strong concentrations of sulfuric acid. “I just don’t understand what would draw somebody to do something like that,” the boy’s mother told WMAR-TV. “What kind of sick joke is that?”
That last sentence of hers is exactly what was going on through my mind as I read this article. I mean come on, man. Doing stupid stuff is the norm for all the stupid people to be found in the world today thanks to too much freedom and not enough guidance. But there has to be a limit. For goodness sake, these are CHILDREN getting hurt man. In this case it a poor, unlucky 2 year old. The world just isn’t safe for children anymore, even in America where this shit took place. Now I can understand friends of mine who say they may not have children because the world is such a terrible place. How much worser will it be for OUR kids?
Just the other night I was at this Easter party at my godparents house. Suddenly this 8 year old girl Mathilda came up to me and asked me whether I wanted to play Scrabble with her. I obliged. Soon her 9 yr old and 6 yr old sisters also came to join us. I had a lot of fun teasing the youngest one as I kept calling her Susan when her name was actually Natalie. Nat then disappeared into the kitchen and wouldn’t come out until I promised to stop calling her Susan. So I started calling Mathilda Susan and Seraphina ( the eldest) Annabelle. Usually I don’t know how to handle children but those three girls were just so friendly I couldn’t resist playing with them. And then it hit me.
I was a complete stranger to them. They don’t even know me. They never seen me before. And their parents never even spoke to me at all the night. So why were they being so friendly to me? If they were like that then, that means they could also be like that outside in public like at the playground right? The bad people, perverts and sickos wouldn’t even have to lift a finger as these girls would probably just walk right up to them.
After they had left with their parents, I complained to my godparents that those children were being too friendly with me, and that they could be just as friendly with anyone out there. I said that their parents needed to teach the girls to be more cautious and not to simply talk to strangers. Am I being too paranoid here? Or has the world really come to a point where my paranoia is now valid? Should we teach children that everyone is a bad person unless mommy or daddy says they're not?
If anyone should cause one of these little ones to lose his faith in me, it would be better for that person to have a large millstone tied around his neck and be drowned in the deep sea. Matthew 18:6
There. Half a dozen posts in 2 days. That should last a while. so leave me alone!
No more blogging . i hate writing. I only like reading. I hate blogging!
If you are desperately hungry for more, Khai Ven is in the works for a new blog. Copied my previous theme he did. And he even wrote a post that categorizes girls into 5 types. ONLY 5???? Khai Ven....Khai ven. Would be interesting to see if we all agree with him. FYI, I like the Carrie Underwood type.Wish I could tell you what that means but he only wants to reveal it when he's completed it.
