Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.

You want a movie that'll make you think? Schindler's List.

As I was watching this movie, thoughts popped into my head, which is incredibly annoying cause when these kind of thoughts pop up, I let them play out. Why's this irritating? It's irritating because I get a good flow going and I try my damnedest to remember key parts of the thought so I can write it down later...the unfortunate thing is, this rarely works.

Everything, at it's core, is pointless, it's all just redundant idiocy.

I have such respect for human kind. The thought of killing someone because you don't like them, because they're this color or they practice this religion, or they look different from what you think they should look like, etc. It's all so fucking insane, it makes me hate, no, let me rephrase cause I can hear my dad now, "it doesn't make you do anything." He'd be right, it causes me to feel hate...which, if you think on it too hard, makes me just as bad though it looks as if it's better.

Back to everything is pointless...

War, pointless at the core. What's war for? To show power, to control, to dominate (yes I realize these are basically the same things but they're in my head so they're getting put down), to conquer, to claim that which isn't yours to make it into your own? Once you've "accomplished" your goal, there you are...feared, revered, admired, hated...either way, what's the fucking point? You don't have enough so you take more, nothing is ever going to satisfy the need to have everything.

Life, pointless at the core. What's the point of life? To exist, to make a mark, to do some good, to learn and grow? After all that, you're dead, sure, you might get remembered for doing something monumental, but who fucking cares? I'm not being suicidal, I'm not saying I'd rather just sit around cause I'm just going to die sooner or later.

I know, this is a downer post and I know there are so many other standpoints, other views, but this is what's in my head, this is what's real to me. I'm uneducated on most things, such as the current war, maybe I'm stupid for not want to be educated in this matter *shrugs*, I don't know. I'm not happy that people are dying for a cause I'm uneducated about, I'm not happy that one day some people hijacked our planes and caused the deaths of so many people.

I know this is how the world works, I'm not saying that's right mind you, I would never say that. All I can do, all anyone can do is his or her part, good or bad, to change the outcome, good or bad, either way, we are all going to die. Maybe your name and memory live on, maybe they don't.

I don't know anymore. I feel as if this post is all over the place, I can't keep going, I've said my piece.

The significance of the girl in the red coat, the only color in the film...this topic has been stuck in my head ever since I had to write a paper on it back in middle school (possibly high school). I do know the true meaning, well Schindler's meaning anyway, but I'm afraid that at this moment, I've got nothing for it either.
