Sheep, everyone, everywhere, sheep

Today, I can't help wondering if it's in our nature to view the bulk of the population as a herd of uneducated ignorant sheep. People seem to follow the same trends and hold the same views based on the same biased set of facts that they don't bother to truly learn about. For the most part, many of us live our lives going through the same cycle day by day, week by week. Many of us long for change or improvement. Few of us ever achieve much success at changing things. For the most part, we don't know how or we can't seem to bring ourselves to do it. Many of us just go on hoping that somehow through some wise shepherd we'll wind up where we want to be. As much as I want to be different, it's still too early for me to really feel confident that things will work. When its done, I'll now.
