death and taxes

in life, one can be sure of two things only: death and taxes.

about anything else we can't be sure, we're left with wild guesses, thoughts and beliefs. i, for one, believe that violence is not something to be proud of, but it's sadly necessary sometimes. and i believe that human beings are not equal. they must all have the same righs, but cannot be treated the same way. we are individuals, and as such, must be considered individually. and oportunities are not free. everyone should be granted the same "access" to opportunities, but to get them should imply merit, excellence. we must deserve what we get.

there is too much whining out there, if you ask me.
