Shut Your Mouth and Open Your Eyes

First real post?

I'll try to keep this interesting, for the sake of the handful of people who might one day read this...
I'm sick and tired of people who think they can do whatever the hell they want. You know what I saw today? I saw someone eat a cookie in the cafeteria. I saw him finish the cookie in line to pay. I saw him pay for his dinner and make no mention of any cookie. Then I saw him sit down with a bunch of Dons, the people who teach us to do what's right, and to live in an orderly manner.

Is it wrong to want someone to suffer for stealing a cookie? Because I want him to pay penance for his sin. But you know what? The only person who'll ever know is me and him. He'll never wind up paying anything, and I'll die with a complete disdain for him. And then it dawned on me: People who do bad things will never be punished. I can live my life as immaculately as I ever could, and still lead a less fulfilling life than someone who drinks til he pukes, fucks whores, and rapes his daughter. He could easily make more money than me, be happier than me, and live longer than me.

God, what I would give to be ignorant. I wish I could be a sheep. Ignorance really is bliss. Sometimes I wonder why I live the way I do...and I never get an answer. Only because it's the way I feel and the life I follow. But every now and then, I wish I wanted to steal a cookie.
