The Undiscovered Tribe...Seriously!


I came across this article in the news this morning and I found it very interesting.
Have a good look at that picture. Those guys must have had the shock of their lives.
"Is it a bird, is it a plane? No it's superman."
I highly doubt this was going through their minds,when the plane flew over. It looks like they have their two best warriors ready for battle, with the old witch doctor in the back ready to say some garbage.
Looking at the picure, I now know why they call them the red Indians, because they red. DUH.
Exept that one guy in the back who was in the sun a little bit more than the red (sunburnt) guys.
He is now charcoal.
The funny thing is that we are not much different from them, sure we don't wear loin clothes or shoot arrows (although some people do), but we are similar in other ways. We live in our own little world just like them. Some people more than others, but everyone has their own world. We get so caught up in it, that when someone else comes along, we treat them different. Simply, because they are not from our familiar world.
I have noticed this especially in the smaller towns of America, where I am from to be exact. People tend to have a village mentality, which is not bad, it just is that way. It's the way we have been brought up, it's our culture, its our LIFE. We tend to get comfortable and happy with our circle in the middle of nowhere. We THINK that it is somewhere or something, just like the these fellows. But just as we realise that they are nowhere and have nothing (they might fight that point), we are exactly the same. We in reality are in our little world, with our few friends, but we would fight the fact that it's something. It's just our little world that we want to believe is alot, but there is so much more than our world.
Our world is not bad, we need our own little world otherwise we seriously would have zippo.
I'm happy in my world, you should be too. However, never get to the place were you are comfortable or you don't want people to come and go from your world.
Have a great weekend!!!

Hey Jono, just wanted to drop you a note! I've been checking your blog out occasionally, good to hear things are good up there. Is it getting warm yet? Today the high is supposed to be 101 here! Crazy! Anyway, just figured I'd say hi, I'm putting off writing an essay for an internship. lol

Dreaming

If we don't keep considering our dream it will stay a dream or worse, it will become a nightmare.
