It's a new year.....but has anything really changed.

You know. Folks always have some kind of catchy saying for the coming of the new year. No more drama in this year or getting fine in '09 ( no oun intended) or something of the sort. People always walk around saying how thet are going to do this different or do that different and how things are going to change. But how many people can actually say that things have changed with the incoming of the new year? How much actually changes? When you look around, all you really see is the same old bullshit that was going on in the previous year. Only now, folks are fronting like they are actually trying to do something different with their lives....that is until they get tired of faking the funk or they think that no one is going to remember all of the bullshit promises and resolutions that they made at the end of the previous year. Remember the saying " the more things change, the more they stay the same"? That is never more true than it is today. People say that they will do this, that or the other.....the same thing that folks were saying 20, 30, 50 years earlier. You would think that the world would be way more different than it is. Definitely a much better place....especailly with all of the things that people claim they're gonna do. Now I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest something. Why don't we as a people do something that not too many other folks do. Why don't we actually make all of those changes and do all of those things that we actually say we are gonna do....instead of just talking about it.

It's a new year people.....don't you think it's time that we actually make a change.
