As I sat in my office, leather chair, air conditioner, desktop PC to the front of me, laptop to my right,Ray Ban sunglasses to the left, as I listen to music on my iPod speakers and text people on my (simi) expensive phone, drinking designer tea (any tea w/ a label not made out of a simple bag) staring out the window, it hit me "Where are we as Americans going?" we are like mice, give us a treat, or in my case all my material stuff, then I am fine, I am happy. I can survive in my maze not even looking to see whats on the other side of the wall, or even truly think about why do i do the same damn rat maze everyday? There is more to this world then the cars we drive, our circle of friends, our houses, or even school. We as humans period (not only Americans) tend to neglect the bad and only want the good, or whatever is right in front of us, that which is normal and "safe"... We put ourselves in our cages and same old rat mazes... Are we ever going to get out?
Come with me, lets take a peek at what is outside our box of comforts, lets look at what we are missing. even if its from our homes.
"Brought Closer to Home" takes a look at whats going on in the world outside the United States or M'erica as some people tend to call it with great blind pride. News that is important, good, bad, happy, sad, etc. News that is in mainstream media, and also hopefully news outside Fox, or CNN, or NBC.. to name a few.
America is our "rat maze" the rest of the world is.....Who really knows until we get out. And this fact goes to those in other countries who feel that they are the best as well, without feeling like they need to know about the world outside their window... For my purpose I am looking at the world the only way I honestly can... An American.
