hey guys! ok, i'm me - jane, and i'm only 13 so be nice. i'm so different from everyone my age, and so i guess that's why i joined this forum. just to have someone to talk to. i just feel like saying something, but i don't feel that it's worth starting a whole thread on. all of you guys are probably just going to ignore me anyway. ok, I live with my mom and I don't get to see my dad often and when I do, we never talk about much. Well, tonight we had a "talk".... I was telling my dad about how I believe that the idea that war creates peace was crazy and how I thought we should have never even gone into Iraq and all that, you know. I told him I hoped and believed one day that everybody in the world would just love one another and we would just have peace. He told me it would NEVER happen. He said no one would ever be on the same page and he said there is a balance of good people and bad people in the world, and if one gets too powerful, whether it is the good or bad people, then there will be war. He says war is unpreventable no matter what. He says you can't just talk to people like Hitler or Saddam Hussien and try to negotiate with them to have peace because we have been trying to for many years and he doesn't listen and he said so we HAD to go into Iraq and free the Iraqies and keep the order....but then I was like why do we have to be the 'world police'? I told him that this year when I went to the the peace rally on anti-war day (he was surprised that i went to something like that), I was telling them more people are starting to believe that war is not the answer and more people are wanting peace because there was lots more young people, people my age, at the peace rally than last year. He said "Good... you're all thinking alike. You're keeping the balance by being with the good people." I don't know what to think. No one ever, EVER talks to me about things like this. People my age certainly don't, and so I really don't have anyone to talk to about anything. That is why I decided to join this forum. I don't believe my dad when he says war is unpreventable, but I dunno, I'm just confused... anyway, i guess i can tell you about me? umm i play guitar! yes yes, i looove music. my faves are : beatles, bob dylan, jimi hendrix, byrds, arlo guthrie. janis joplin, rolling stones, and everyone else. i'm totally vegan. i love being outside, in nature... i don't know, i'm only 13, ok? and i was just over at my grammies one day telling her everything i believed, everything i loved to do, everything i liked, everything i wanted for the world, and she said "dear, you are such a hippie." i was like 'noo grammie, i'm just me! what is a hippie anyway?' so yeah, it just happened like that. i don't believe in labeling or sterotyping or anything like that. i really do honestly believe that one day there will be peace. anyway, you guys seem really cool. ok, i hope i'm welcome here! peace & love xx, Jane
