WORK, WORK, WORK!

I've come to see that all people do is work work work and more work in this country. People have no time left to be with their families, friends, or just have some time alone. People either go to work early in the morning and come home late at night, eat and go to bed. Some sleep all day and work during the night. I'm always hearing people complain about how much they work, but they can't do much about it, they have to provide for their family. Some less fortunate people have more than one job because the pay from one is just not enough.
Then I hear people from other countries that come to visit here and they can't believe how much people work here. They say "oh no...where I'm from nobody works so much, they have time to go to the beach and be with friends and family. " We get so fixated with work and our minds know nothing but work. Nowadays when I have conversations with other people is always about WORK! Is there really nothing else to talk about...? I think that MONEY is to blame. Nobody ever has money for anything anymore and prices for everything are sky high. It's just not a healthy way to live, I think.

Ok well on that note....back to work I go.

lonely nights bruises on your arms
notes on your bed thoughts in your head
beatings every now and then
screams that don't go away
hiding and bleeding
questions with no answers
life with no soul
that's what he makes you don't be afraid
run if you can hide if you dare
don't turn around for another scare
come and take a chance in this dream
that involves you and I

Just a thought....

How do you really know what you want?
I mean if you don't try you wont know
How far are you willing to go?
To find out what truelly makes you happy
To find out what your heart wants
To find out what and who is worthy of you
What if you make a mistake? then what...?
Did you go all the way just to fail ?
Or did you learn something along the way and now know
Which path you should take?
They always say follow your heart but what if you heart
takes you to disaster? Then what happens?
Do you start all over until you get it right
or do you just let it go and see where life takes you?
Whether or not you find the right path for you now or later
your eventually going to get there, so why not relax and enjoy
the ride? Instead of rushing your life to be something perfect
at the wrong time. I think everything happens for a reason
and everything takes time. So don't rush and just hush, ride the wave
and when you arrive just be glad that you got the chance to survive.
