I lose sight when I'm out of touch

I haven't blogged in ages, and for no good reason. My only excuse would be that I have been preoccupied with the day-to-day of my life, nothing of great significance I can assure you.

I start back to college in about a week and a half. Returning to school and obtaining a degree is something I always knew I would do, but like with high school, I didn't set an actual timeframe for myself for completing it. An Associates Degree in Criminal Justice is what I plan on working towards. Is there a chance I'll change my major? Yes, mainly because I'm still "on the fence" about what I want to do as a career. I would love to help children, and right now I'm focusing my efforts on obtaining a degree and becoming a detective so I can work for the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, or some other intity of that nature. Online internet predators are a real, and growing danger towards our children. Being able to stop those individuals and apprehend them before they get the chance to physically harm a child is what I want to do. Children are innocent and get sucked into the brutally glamourized bandwagon we call the internet. They see the appeal and power, as well as freedom the internet offers, and are rendered powerless when they befriend the enemy, a child predator. The internet is a great technological tool of our times, but it has been used against the innocent time and time again.

I have to do something to make a difference in this world. God put me here for a reason, and I'm still here for a reason. I have to help save our children from this growing, vile epidemic that threatens what is innocent and pure in our offspring. Our children are already exposed to more than we could ever imagine, causing them to have to grow up faster than we did. Let's do our best to try to salvage what litle bit is left of their childhood, and just let them be kids.
