Mike Betancourt's Acting Reel

Mike Betancourt's Acting Reel

Have you ever thought?

Have you ever thought, that one day our existence would finally make sense. But will it ever make sense? Is it suppose to make sense? Why are things the way they are? Most people say things are the way they are because it's modern society. "This world we live in and you need to join this rat race or be left behind."
 But why? Why are we the only species that has to pay for everything on this planet? If we are on top of the food chain, then why pay for it? I say not enlave us, I say enslave monkeys and have them work for us... Wait, we all know where that ends up.........YOU MANIACS!  YOU BLEW IT UP
!

We are in the 21st century and yet we are still living in the times of Nobels.  Where the haves and have nots rule. If we evolved with technology becoming a living organism where we can communicate with anyone at our finger tips; computers are now being designed to become contact lens, virtual reality becoming more of a reality, then why do we have to pay for anything. Why can't we design a system where everyone can benefit from? Oh you mean a socialistic society? No thanks Mike Obama!

No, not a socialist, or communist, or democratic, but a society for Humanity . Instead of pledge allegiance to a flag that basically claims territory, and if you aren't with this flag you are lower than dirt. But why not pledge allegiance to this planet. To promise to up hold the environment mother nature intended. And to love, honor and respect another. With out war, hatred, greed.

World Peace? Yeah not in this life time.  I am not trying to be a negative Nancy, but our world is more than fucked up. It's  mentally challenged. And everyone is mad, frustrated, stressed out of everything this world has to offer. No one can see the future. They rather escape and dedicate their lives to sports, TV, movies, drugs, and the list goes on and on. Please don't think I am judging anyone, I am guilty of all these things. But hey, at least I am thinking about it. Thinking about change, having inner peace and teaching my children about how to change the future.

It's cliche but the kids are our future. And we need to change the way they think. From everything we've been taught and brainswashed from our history to our present day. We need to stop that evil cycle and have them teach us. Make it not a hierarchy relationship" I am your father and you will listen to me!" But  more of a mentor. As your father, I am just  a guide. I am here to nurture your strengths and help you with your weakness.

I know, it's a lot of work. It's gonna take time away from a lot of fun things. But we have to. This generation got the short end of the stick. This generation is fucked, but future generation isn't. There is hope for them. We can make their lives better and we can be the pioneers for Humanity.

Uncle Ben said it best " With Great powers comes...."  You know the rest. You have the power!
