Identity

In this world of conformity and difference, I stand alone. I love nearly anyone who crosses my path. And because of this, I've hurt the ones who matter most and I've been hurt by loving too much. I feel that it is my place in this world that I must make anyone and everyone I know, happy. I've still not truly realized that I can't do that. Only the powers that be can actually accomplish that. But, what if I try? Why can't I try? Because too many people don't understand me. I'm not just saying that. How many people actually go thru life wanting to love everyone? Not many. But, I do. I have a desire and a need to try and make everyone happy but I have to realize that I am no deity. As far as I feel I've ascended, it's not quite high enough. I'm not intended to go that high. I'm unfortunately human. I feel free yet restricted by this state of being. I am free from humanity because I love
freely. Yet I am restricted because I am only human. So, what am I?

I live in Jacksonville, FL. I go to a predominately black school on the south side of town. I've noticed today, being election day that students are more politically active than ever. Now, statistics show that African Americans usually vote Democratic. Not that it's set in stone. BUT, I want to know if the support for Barack Obama is because the majority of my school is black and simply voting for him because he's black OR because he is the democratic candidate. Personally, I'd vote McCain, but I'm only 17 this year. I personally don't like Palin or Obama but I'd rather a republican in office. This isn't a matter of who's going to win. It's a matter of WHY. Why are all the polls of the younger generation pointing to "CHANGE"? Why is our generation so against tradition? It's not Bush's fault we're in this mess. It's our own fault. Why blame someone for our faults? Why can't we fix it
ourselves?
