The world is beautiful but we make it the worst place to be in…

Since childhood we’re administered and controlled like manikins, when that’s not the case, we’re thrown on streets to struggle and rise on our own, in either case we’re not taught, in either case we don’t learn.

I look around to see how the world in only full of hatred, I look around to see how everyone is only confined in their own shell full of their own thoughts and tricks with their own definition of good and bad and how their lives hardly go beyond judging others. I live in a place where to be fair, to be kind, to be good, I feel the need to cut myself off from majority of the people around. I live in world where its so easy to brag, bribe, backbite and even to kill. I wonder how many out there feel the need to escape, I wonder how many out there feel the need to change. I wonder if they’d ever raise their voices, I wonder if we, the drifted, the naïve, the ignorant would ever grow learn to understand, tolerate and be what’s expected of us.

We’re not concerned about our own lives, we’re not bothered to change ourselves for the better to change ourselves for the good, rather point fingers at those who aren’t living the way we think is the best. I can’t be certain where to begin from, people are such amazing creations of god and we make every effort possible to ruin it. Day and night we indulge in practices that not only harm our self but let the others think ill of us. Of all the things I feel strongly against around me, the first is the lack of willingness to correct oneself.

Every person is different, but that doesn’t make anyone superior to the rest, apparently, our society ranks people in relation to their beauty, bank balance, residential location and nationalities. The superiority also gives these people the rights to rule over the lives of the ones they seem below them. Apparently today education has lost its true essence, learning is nothing beyond the rank of your institution and we’re all victims of the negative and judgmental world around us.

Do you ever wake up and be thankful for all you have? Do you ever stop to think that the reason behind all of your blessings, the food and shelter included is not you and not even just your dad, its Him. How many times have you not looked above yourself to look below and realize how good you’ve had it? How many times you’ve let yourself stay deprived to give to the other? The good that is sharing, the good that is caring and loving with purity and genuineness has lost its meaning. The charity unfortunately is only lest for the ones who can afford spending post fulfillment of needs and it has all become a reason to brag or to once again be superior to the other. Have you ever thought of or met a person who’d actually honestly, without anyone else knowing it help someone by sacrificing his own needs or wants? People have even stopped doing that for their families.

It hurts me to see how they fight.
