The Yellow Wallpaper

What a story that has lead my views of the physiological mind to another level. How one can separate the body from the mind by over thinking and over analyzing. As towards what my interpretation of the story goes, she was alone most of her time, that lead her mind alter her reality. Her depression and having that shoulder to lean on wasn't any where to be found. Her husband who is a doctor, relied on his profession rather then what his wife plead. He stated that she has gotten better physically, but did not state she was well mentally. Which indicated to us as the readers that she was not getting any better.
I'm relived that mental illness have occurred during those times. It makes it easier for many of those who are under that kind of mental state to be treated well and hopefully one day cured. It hurts to see those we love under those conditions, as its always hard to understand what kind of pain they must be in, to lie in their face, to say we too understand but in realty we don't. We state we do to make them feel as if they are not alonE.

The Blog that was unwritten

As bands such as Tool, Johnny Cash, smashing pumpkins, and korn, as well as many more are staring to take the step of using music as a tool to inform the youth of their views from "doomsdays" to government involvement of the public and the future that waits them.
Korns "Evolution", breaks down to a simple meaning, De-evolution. In the
music video( http://youtube.com/watch?v=VntFEWF8I8A), video shows how money and sex can convince a human race, like a monkey would be driven to a banana. The difference here is that a banana is a source to survival, while money (not sex) is not what i would call a must have if i was stranded on a desert.
The talk of the End of the world has been tossed around for so many years, but whats steering the talk even more is that maynes calender which comes to an end on December 21, 2012. In my View, we shouldn't fear something we are unsure off. What comes after death is not important; we should make every minute in this life the best we can.
