Directions To Nowhere

I knew giving an adulot directions was probably a bad idea considering that at the time I barely knew my left from my right. I was riding in my grandparents old black ford truck. The humming from the car engine and the static noise coming from the radio were the only two sounds that filled the entire car. I turned my head to look outside the window at the open fields. When I saw the blue beautiful sky and smelt the fresh air I remembered the smells of my own home the lovely cinnamon and clove buds. Then my attention got directed to my grandmother asking me if this is the spot where we turned, and then I froze pointing towards the red chevy car coming straight towards us. Then I heard the annoying sounds of the engine and the radio silenced.  I looked around trying to find a mirror to assess my injuries, but they were all shattered along with the other vehicle. The smell of the gas burned my throat, it disgusted me. I only remembered the sound of the sirens wailing and looking through the cracked windshield to see the red and blue lights flickering in the distance, and then complete darkness.

One Voice

What we hear on television and what really is happening in the world sometimes are two totally different things except for the statement made about animals being abused. Its true yes its  hard to believe that animals are getting hurt because our minds don’t automatically think about   these things you have think about the subject and feel like you want to change it. Most people think oh someone else will fix that issue they don’t need my help well those people are wrong we need everyones help to solve animal cruelty.
    Micheal Vick is a NFL football player who raised pit bulls to fight them in awful dog fights honestly I do not believe in fighting dogs its cruel and unusual punishment I think if people are going to fight dogs they should put some humans into a pen and let them beat the crap out of each other and see how they feel afterwards because that's what is happening to some of the poor animals in our world. Why can’t people be nice and kind to animals like they should be that’s something I don’t know the answer to but, I wish I knew why.
    If everyone in the world who had to money and space to care for a pet that has been neglected or abused in some way there would be a lot less animals in shelters and maybe people will realize the threat some people put towards animals. There are so many animals that need good homes most of them will turn out to make great companions and great pets all of my pets have  been rescued from bad situations except for one we bought her from a breeder. The animals that I do have that were rescued are more interested in me and want to be around you all the time they love you and to be around you and sometimes that's all some people need in their heart is a little love to take over the meanness they have buried in the lives. I was watching a television show and heard a person speaking saying every 3 minutes there is an animal out there wandering the street homeless or one that has been neglected by their owner they need you help to reach out and speak for them because animals don’t have a voice we have to speak for them.
