We should all feel frustration! The world is burning around us! Pointless wars, poverty, climate change, pollution etc.
But sadly, we are just so self-centred. Life goes on. We have our parties, weddings, birthday etc. And we get on with it. If Middle East wasn’t burning today, would the people in there spare a thought for hungry kids in Africa? If the hungry kids in Africa weren’t hungry, would they spare a thought for the desperate people in South America?
It is a right shame, that the world is not a place where we can try to help each other. Where we can end prejudice, bias, inequality, poverty, wars, hatred, enmity etc. To even think about a world free of hate, will be labelled naïve…
I accept it is hopeless, helpless and won’t change. But my brain can’t just look the other way.
If there’s no police, society will be a total mess; people will do unthinkably terrible things to each other. If the US and the other countries people like to complain about, are not there, all our freedoms will be gone completely! It is what it is. We are not naturally humane!!
