My Anti-Drug

My getaway from everything else is music. Playing music, listening to music, an even watching live performances. I've always felt an ease and peacefulness while listening to the composition of sounds. I love how they intertwine and come together. How they can create images in your head. I also love the way you can interpret music in the way you want to see it. Whenever I find myself in some type of mischief, I always turn to my trusty pair of ear phones. The only  two things that I ever really need in order to successfully function. Overall music is my anti-drug. It keeps me tranquil and sane. It keeps me on the right track of how I should be feeling throughout the course of struggles and obstacles I face throughout any day.

An Inconvenient Truth

I learned a lot about global warming while watching Al Gore's presentation. I learned that climate change is inevitable, but I also learned that we have control over how much change occurs. Al Gore made me realize that the planet we live in is a very complex and huge canvas. A canvas that can be easily destroyed by the people who inhabit it. The most alarming segment of Al Gore's presentation was his use of statistics. The numbers don't lie, that is for sure. It is clear that global warming is a huge problem that must be stopped. Just as we are the problem, we can also be the solution. Al Gore is a strange representation of hope. He represents the goodness that man needs in order to move forward. Overall I found Al Gore's presentation as a fine representation of someone who really wants to see change in the world. A world that we sometimes might feel isn't worth all that much. I learned a lot about climate change and the impact it will have on the future. I ultimately learned that global warming is a global problem that we must all choose to resolve.
