Vultures

You know when you've been sitting there and waiting for you big break? When you know that you have talent and you have what it takes to be great and it's that one opportunity that's going to make or break you? It's a horrible, horrible feeling.

The only feeling that's worse is when you see that opportunity right before your eyes and you're just about to snatch it up and then someone just takes it away from you. They come in and just stomp all over your dreams and leave you feeling frustration and depressed.

That's what happened to a good friend of mine today. She was born to be a singer, her voice is the voice of angels and the talent she has is just incredible. How she has not become famous yet is a matter of that opportunity that never seems to come. Today that opportunity came knocking on her door and just as she was about to wrap her hands around it so delicately and cradle it close to her heart, some b*tch came along and stole it away, and not because she wanted it, but because she didn't want her to have it.

I hate these people. I hate dream-killers. They are the worst kind of people because they feed on our hopes and dreams. They devour them and spit them out just for the fun of it. They are the scavengers of the world, the vultures of our society.
