I Just Wont Miss You

May 28th,

  Not so dear high school, I just wont miss You.

   As great as it's been I'm so glad the drills are over with. It's strange to think that we spend the first 18-25 years of our life studying how to live it.  Imagine if you spent even five years learning to drive on a permit before being able to receive your license.  Then again maybe that's why we have such ingenious things like the instant brain cancer propagation device, oh umm.... the microwave, or sliced bread,  oh and let's not forget the radios that don't actually work as well as they used too, (if you were a 90's kid you'll know what I mean.)  Anyway today was my year end test and I'm decently sure I got one of the questions right...wait no, two of em, yah.  But really it's odd that we devote so much of our lives to learning how to get a job or manage a checkbook, when the most important things are patiently sitting right in front of us.  How about your soul? Seriously what training do we give that for life? It's clear that we're more than physical beings, that can't even be argued.  Every war in the history of man kind, every personal account, every hug and every punch, every shot and every plot were based on our personal, intuitive moral sense of right and wrong.  So how 'bout it? We're spiritual beings so where's our spiritual training?  In the early days of America's pilgrimage every school house began their morning with a recital of the Pledge Of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer.  Our constitution say's were a nation under God. Our founding fathers believed in our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (which is clearly an above physical desire) so strongly that they signed their lives to it and were hung, shot, burnt, and betrayed for it. When something goes unimaginably wrong and things get worse than we could possibly imagine what do we do? Pray. Even if it's to a god we didn't believe in yesterday.  I wont try and prove God's existence, just the same as I wont try and prove the law of gravity to you, I'm writing with the preconceived concept of God as an existent, present, and moving being. If anyone ever had an argument about that i'd be more than willing to discuss it on a Facebook message.    

  Yes education is necessary, no i'm not dissing it's potential. We really are better off with an unbiased education in place (far from what we have in our school's today, which is another night's subject).  I cannot thank my Mom for all the hard work she's put into my progress and I know it's never really over, just moving on to bigger fish.  Those of you still in your education, don't forget what really matters, God doesn't look at SAT scores.
