Despondent...

I'm losing hope that anything in the world can ever go right. All of the best people are always the first ones to go, we are fighting wars we have no business being involved in, and now people who have no place in my family or in my life are somehow finding their way there, through lies and deceit. My father would be rolling in his grave right now, if he had any idea what was going on. To be honest, I think he does, but I can't understand why he's not doing anything about it. Cuz everything that's happening now is just wrong. People who use people do get their comeuppance eventually though, and I suppose I have to keep faith in that. And keep having faith that those who are being used, come to their senses and realize it before it's too late. Although, at this point, I'm losing faith that even that can happen. No one ever wants to believe me when I tell them the truth about someone. I suppose I should just stop trying to help people see the light, and get out of the muck in their life. It's bit me in the butt a couple of times already, but it's hard to stop caring about people you love. Which is, I suppose, why I'm a glutton for punishment. Oh well...you can't always win.

So, the Eagles won this weekend, thank goodness, because I HATE and despise the Vikings, and wanted to see them lose badly. Can they beat the Falcons though? My hesitant guess is yes, they can. But I'm frightful to put all my money on that bet. I do like Vick and the Falcons, but the Eagles are my second favorite team right now, and I'd love to see them win the Superbowl. Especially if they are playing my hated Patriots. God, I am sick of them. Manning couldn't even get himself together to beat them. What is his problem??? Are they really that good? I don't think so. Not if the Steelers can beat them. And judging by the close game the Steelers had with the Jets this past weekend, I'm not thinking the Steelers are that great either anymore. Who knows. But I am excited for next Sunday. Are we there yet????
