Civilian

"People don't know what's going on! I want to see the water! The water running down the streets! I want to see buildings submerged! I want to see people crying!"

He had only asked me what I thought of the cover picture. I hated it. I hated that it was necessary to show the destruction for people to understand.

And I still do. I hate that people complain about the situations.

"The gas prices are too high."

"The President isn't moving fast enough."

"The people in there are crazy."

And I feel bound to my duty. I feel chained to truth in a greater way than I have in the past. Objectivity comes easy because truth is truth.

I may go there. If not I will continue to talk, write, and think about it. Watching movies and drinking coffee just isn't important anymore.
