The Scams Of Life

The world is a big place. It's filled with a bunch of single minded
individuals waiting to rob you off your freedom. I have fell for a
a lot of scams. I have lost a lot of money; bribing my way to my
freedom. If you find yourself in a situation in which you cannot
control, it's human nature to bribe your way out of that situation.
Does it really matter how you got out of that situation? Not when your
whole life depends on it.

Many have fell for the scams of life. It's extremely difficult to
recognize a scam if you haven't been in one. It's hard to believe that
someone woke up this morning with an intention to rob someone else.
Why is it that hard to accept the fact that we will always be victims?

Everywhere you go; everyone you meet, it's either they are a victim of
a scam or they are part of a scam waiting for your vulnerable moment.
There's always a weak moment. That weak moment will destroy the
freedom you've created for yourself. At least you still have time to
prepare. It doesn't hurt that much if you were expecting it but still,
it hurts.

I Wasn't There

I have no idea what I did to deserve this, but I know what I didn't do
to deserve this. I don't remember asking for this pain. I don't
remember praying for this pain. Why is it there?

Why can't it heal like any other pain? Why can't it disappear like it's
supposed to? I don't need it. I don't want it. Why is it there?

I confess, I had it easy. I slept with no pain and I woke up with no
pain. Now I have to get used to this pain. My pain. It's mine to deal
with, it's mine to feel and its mine to embrace. I find no pleasure in
this pain and I find no desire to live with it. Could it get any worse
than it already is? If it could, let it come. I rather face it all at
once than to face it one at a time.

We all have pain to deal with. As big as yours is, it can't be worse
than the one felt by the one next to you. Whether we know it or we
don't. We all get punished for the sins made in the past. Even though
we were not there. Someone was there and that idiot messed it all up
for us. Now we have to learn to live with it.
