  Tell Me Why
Time goes by so fast these days that sometimes I stop and wonder if when I look back on these years I'll remember them in a whirl of superficial memories and insignificant events. The existence of this fast paced reality and material obsessed world is disorienting.

When I look back at history, at the short amount of time that humans have walked the earth, it is unbelievable to literally see the development of language, art, and culture. Compared to what our ancestors achieved with the creating of such a rich and insightful species, our own "progress" through technology looks destructive. Perhaps my perception of human history is romanticized but it must be for me to believe both that humanity is a beautiful thing but also that it is unbelievably corrupt...
