Wonderings, musings, and maybe a bit of poetry.
Observations of Gaia...
Gaia, oh what can I say about you?
For what has happened since I came...
Greed has come upon like a plague,
And permeates this place through and through.

I once came here and things were nice,
Things were bought and sold at reasonable price.
Today things have changed so much,
It is hardly the same place it was...

Being here but a year,
Is all I have, but I do fear
The materialism in this little world
has become the obsessions of those here.

I know you may say that you're the same,
But what has become of those once here?
Do they still speak in such kind ways?
Sometimes, but only in certain places...

Do they still have charity to give
When a poor Gaian wants something badly?
No, I dare say not, for talk is cheap,
and your quest is costly.

I hardly came here for a month or two,
So I'm still a bit new, I admit this too.
But what is it that we should find?
What has happened to the soul of this fine place?

I wish I knew, but then again
It may be better not to know.
For once it comes back from the grave,
It is the players that make it fault.

Note to all that read this: I know you may think I'm a bit overdramatic, but I remember a time when a kitsune mask was a mere 1-3 K, today it's almost thirty K. Check it out sometime, you'll see what I'm talking about.

    Supply and demand, my friend... the supply is constant, but the player base is growing, so the demand is increasing exponentially. If you don't want anything badly, then it's not a big deal. ^_^ I have my kitty plushies, and my avatar isn't nakie, so I'm happy. *huggles her kitties* And both my staff and the tiara were gifts, which is why I wear them both (even though the tiara doesn't exactly match the rest of the stuff). So there are still nice folks out there.

    I know, and I guess it was a bit farfetched. Still, it's somewhat rare to come across 'em...in my case anyway. *chuckles* Maybe I'll have to make another journal sometime.

    Hehe, sure. I'll read it if ya do... As for finding the folks that give out nice stuff... It's just luck, and actually making friends with the people you talk to, I guess. sweatdrop Or I just got super-lucky and ran into two nice people.
