Last night my mother's car was broken into. Her purse with all the Christmas money and her credit cards were stolen. Along with my 120 dollars I withdrew from the bank to pre-register for Fanime. I was really crushed and had a lot of thoughts. I wrote this below and I would love to hear your comments on it. It is still unfinished but it sounds alright as it is now.

Once there is pain in the world there will always be pain.
Once there is betrayal there will always be betrayal.
Once these ugly things are born they remain in the world because once there are weak people there will always be weak people. Not of body but of mind, they will always want “better things”. They cannot be content with the wonders they already posses. “Who is she talking about you ask the poor and longing, the lost and forgotten, tormented souls?” of course you say “We are all tormented in some way shape or form, so why blame everyone?” I speak of the weak willed. The people who will betray you and trade their soul, dignity, their lives, their families’ lives, and the life style they would like to obtain just for a few dollars and some measly material possessions. The weak who do not fully think their cunning plan through, they leave traces. Now some are experts studying their pray closely waiting for the opportune moment, to swoop down on it’s innocent unsuspecting pray, who just worked a 40 hours week, who left to treat himself to a movie or a peaceful dinner to lift their spirits. Ah but these people still leave traces no matter how much thought they put into their devious plan. Of course there are people who are smart enough and well thought out to leave no traces at all, to execute the plan with out a trace left behind, of course those smart people would not act on their weakness, because they are already powerful and wealthy. The people who act on their weakness want to prove something to someone, may it be a loving wife, a daughter, a son, or just to prove someone wrong. In the end the only thing that these people prove is that they are weak, selfish, uncaring people. Oh but now you say “There are plenty of people who steal for their hungry families or so that they can survive” but those people, if it comes to that would never steal, they would seek information to obtain help. Those people see the error of their ways and why they have fallen where they are, they see what mistakes they made, and they would never wish their fate on another. The hating self loathing people who need material objects and money to prove their worth; they are the ones that I am talking about. These people will take all they can obtain and probably will never think of the people they have stolen from, never think of the pain they have inflicted on to their fellow man, the suffering that has yet again been born from pain caused by betrayal. Oh but now that I have cleared up who I am talking about, and you know these people, what is their race, because I must be talking about a certain race if there is so much passion in what I am conveying to you, ah but you are all different races who are reading my writing and you all know the people that I am writing about. There is no race that is without this, it does not matter what color your skin is or how or where you grew up, there are always people who have fallen from grace and it did not matter what their skin color was.
