A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
-Albert Einstein
What this quote means to me is that as humans we are very conceited, all humans know is what they have experience for themselves and looking for the bigger picture. That we as humans all we can think about what is what wee have and what we can do, all the things we do can affect those around us because it what we want and as part of being conceited we are also jealous of those around us and if we do not have that attention we get upset, and visa versa. We need to learn how to accept others around us an d learn from their experiences because we can if we listen be preventing ourselves from dying if we do something we don’t know about but they did.

Faith in Humanity
Faith in humanity
By Ashley
“ You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”
Gandhi
The world is full of war with outbreaks of Peace, not a world full of peace with out brakes of war. Throughout the ages we have we have had many disasters and people have followed lead. So this quote could be true if we as people are willing to step up, be a leader, stop going with the flow, and jumping when people say jump.
Also this would work if all people could learn how to work together, instead of always fighting for who the best.

Being Human
“ Being human is itself difficult.”
Jane Jacobs
Human to me means that you can show empathy and sympathy to people that need it. You can govern your self with laws the spoken and the unspoken. You also won’t let yourself be changed; just because you aren’t accepted by society doesn’t mean you aren’t human.
Inhuman are thoughts people who brake the rules to the full extent they are so far go from the human world that they have lost tract of what’s right or wrong. They are malicious like a serial killer for example the kill and kill then they lose touch with reality they are so far gone that they can never rejoin society. I am not saying anyone that brakes a law is inhuman, they still know the difference between right or wrong and they can make amends, but repeated action that you keep on doing something the rope that is hanging on to your sense or reality is tinning to a piece or thread that if you don’t come to your senses sooner then later you will be sucked into the dark abbess of being in human
Being human is difficult because it is hard sometime to govern yourself under the rules we need to live by and at one point or another we all find ourselves slipping on that deep rope, but all it takes is keeping our minds strong then we shall be able to get up that rope again, even through on a piece of thread have done it, it is hard and take time but you can survive and make it back up that rope

As wind blows softly
Sea waves leap onto the shore
Sand stains the seashore
Dreams turn to nightmares
Hate is seeping into fear
Lights still far away

Lost Goals
Lost goals
Ashley
My life is full of goals I feel I will never reach
Yet as time dwindles down I feel that I am getting closer
Then it is torn from me faster then I can see
Now I am back to square one
Life isn’t fair
That’s what I am told
Yet they don’t see all my goals
When my heart is closed to them
So open my heart right?
Not so easy when you feel lost
And there’s no one to ask directions
When you lost trust in the world

Mother
Mother
By Ashley
My life is what you gave me
A mother is what you took from me
You don’t know what you gave up
When you choose to leave your children
You lie to your parents saying you always are writing us
When know that you have been having time of your life
That you could care less about your kids
But you still have to look good for your parents
So obviously you’re not mother of the year
You can be my mother again
If you are willing to get the help you need
I am willing to call you “mom” again

Poem
Bad Hair day
The Angry After Party Animal
Woke up with a horrendous hair do on its head
We said to use his new shinny Shamo Shampoo
How well that would work no one knew, it was a very horrid hair day
We tried to tell him it would become a fast fashion
Angry After Party Animal said that we were absurd
Sick of him we stuck him in the shower and soaked his stringy stiff hair
But he was out of there as fast as an anorexic model in a fire at a fascist fashion show

Poem
World turned upside down
In my world I am so confused
I always want to change whats inside it
My world makes me feel so used
Like a worn catchers mit
Everything crumbling around me
Nothing is ever changing
They just can’t see who I want to be
It like driving down a long empty range
Can’t you see my world turning upside down?
My world dosen’t even turn now
It’s just a muddy dark brown
All the promises in in my world have become a forgotten vow
