Have you ever seen a snake slithering up a tree into a nest? It is strange when you hear the chirping stop and yet there is still noise all around, as though, those baby birds where never there or never mattered. What is it about the tragedies that occur everyday that make them so easy to ignore? For example, what about the Gaza massacres... it seems the only people that pay any attention to such matters are the oil companies, hence the rise in gas prices. But I can easily ignore the fact that on the other side of the world there are children, mothers, fathers, family, bleeding to death in the streets because the hospitals are not out fitted for those particular emergency conditions. What a New Year, right? Thank you ignorance because if your smart, at least part of the time, you realize that it is all about options. Options come in all sizes and best of all you don't have to choose all of them at once time. I know this makes no sense and I have no way of tying that snake thing back into this story but here goes...even though those birds had no idea what was going on, you can bet your ass that the snake had a plan the whole time. So you have to ask yourself, are you the bird or the snake?
