Our world today is a crazy one, in many ways. It is so different to what it used to be. The advancement of technology, coupled with such things as HIV/AIDS or terrorism and America's retaliation (and the Iraq War), combines to form a mind boggling, and somewhat depressing environment for one to live in.
