Viva La Revolucion

It seems to me that the world has caught Revolution Fever, and it'll be noted that it is more contagious than the plague, but then again so is alimony.

It just goes to show that sometimes, when a group of people, whether it be a country, or just a band of people wanting change, get together and set their collective mind to something, that it can be accomplished with enough effort. And once one revolution occurs, another is sure to take it's place, it is a cycle of history that is sure to repeat itself until the day the Earth grows cold, but it is a spark that ignites the fire of human strength, and usually human stubbornness as well. But as they say, sometimes change is a good thing.

How long will it be before something resembling a revolution, or even small riots, starts happening in your town? No place is ever immune to the human condition, even if the leaders of that place wish otherwise.

Revolutions have been demonized as something that causes bitter violence, and is something "not worth it" in the long run, but every culture has had its revolutions, whether they call them as such or not, and they are a key part to the development of Civilization. It us up to us to decide whether we want to revolt in the name of the betterment of us and our people, or just because we want to revolt. I hope we make the right choice.

Sometimes change is a good thing, sometimes not so much. I think most the time people are simply too afraid of change to want it. wether it be good or bad. Fear controls us. It's as simple as that.
