So I havn't ranted in awhile

So, I've been thinking about life
and just the world and its problems in general.
This is what I've come up with.
Humans are parasites.
We're all just little specs,
like tiny microscopic ants in the universe.
This is the root of all our problems.
We lead lives that lead up to procreation,
usually years of school,
learning meaningless things,
perhaps a career of some form,
most of us end up having children
and maybe a marriage that ends up
falling apart eventually.
Things would be a lot better
if there WEREN'T so many advances
in the medical profession that just
cure us of almost everything.
Years ago people died of simple things
like chicken pox. It was better that way.
All we're good for is ruining the planet.
Perhaps it might be a good thing
if a meteor hit the world
and wiped out half of the population.
We all are brought up to believe
we're such important beings.
When in all actuallity we're not even
like freckles in the universe.
It's these momentary lapses
into idealism and what some would call
pessimism that have convinced me
of the fact that to live is less
and less a struggle with each passing year...
but then again along with cures for things
and advances in electronics and capitalism
there are more in depth dangers...
school is no longer a safe place to articulate...
but then again NO WHERE is safe.
But what is safety? It's an idea
turned into an emotion,a feeling.
Everything is composed of theory.
No one knows the truth about anything.
The black and white logics of
whats right and wrong seem to fade
and melt together and gray areas
start popping up as we grow older.
Us as humans tend to put ourselves
around other humans that have
the same ideas and beliefs
as ourselves simply because
no one wants to be told that they're wrong.
So, conclusively...I'm thinking
(perhaps this is a mistake)
that there is basically not a damn thing
I can do or anyone can do to "fix" things....
Because we are so insignificant
its best to stick to those simple
emotions and ideas that drive us through 'life'....
because everything feeds off of everything else
and obviously we're supposed to exist
and not only that...but exist as we do...
why else would we use only
10 percent of our brains?
