Where is the humanity in us?

We all say the world is cruel when bad things happen, but is it true? What has the world done to us that we shamelessly speak about it? As it did wrong in keeping us safe? Why push all the blames on it when we are the inhabitants of it?

I see the world has a room, a room made to shelter us, can we say the room is wrong for keeping us in? Or do we speak directly to the people who live in that room or those rooms for their hypocrisy, hatred, distrust, and other negativity combined?

The world hasn’t done wrong in taking us in but the people that dwell in it have. What would it take to help out and be kind to others? What would it take to hug and be truly there for each other? Absolutely nothing! Zero! Nada! But why have we chosen to be ill-mannered and wicked in our actions toward another?

We all listen to the news daily and ninety-nine percent of it is mainly on bad news but mind you, there is a code in every media organization that is meant to balance things by not putting out much bad news but in our world today, it is hard to see or hear of good things happening around because there isn’t.

We all look at the past and say, “Oh, yeah, the future will be brighter” but what future is it? Is it the same one filled with hatred and misery? The future where the past is much more preferable to the future?

Where are we going and when do we decide to stop this hate? The hate that has filled us in and clawed up our hearts like a newfound love, the hate that makes us look at other humans as nothing and do things bad to them.

Where are those days? Those days when things were better, though I have to admit technology has made things better but then humans have made living worse than expected and this brings tears to my eyes and an unstoppable ache to my heart and my very being as I ask, ” Where are those days?”, days when we are genuinely happy for each other, days when killings, rituals, and bombing were minimal, days when a child is truly loved regardless of his or her color or background, days when love ruled and kindness and peace were at ease, where are those beautiful days, I ask? Or do they not exist and are a piece of my imagination?

I had decided to rest early today after the day's trouble but I couldn’t, my heart felt heavy and it bled and so does every other part of me. The video I saw today kept on playing in my head and it ignited that burning flame in my heart that screams, " Let it all be over!”. But who am I kidding with that thought? Or can it be truly possible?

A child… oh, no!.. The heart of men is more deadly than his sword! In the video was a man, his wife, and their two children found dead on the cold floor with foam in their mouths and nose dried up, only Lord knows the agony they might have felt, the pains they could have gone through before death claimed them and on their little dining table were food which was half eaten stating the obvious that they were poisoned!

Seeing the video at first, I was calm as my brain was trying to push the loaded-up burden of the day aside just to fully comprehend what I had seen, and then I was lost! Lost on why anyone could have felt truly happy hurting another being like them!

For goodness sake, where are our sanity and compassion? Where are love, kindness, and mercy? Where are…. Oh, no! when does all this madness stop? When do we see it right to have all this nonsense end? When does this hate we give out stop? That nonsensical crazy urge to kill people, gosh! What have we all become? Why are those beautiful days gone? Why…why…why… please bring them back, and if you are out there please pray.

Let’s pray for the end of these miseries felt for I am greatly saddened and gravely hurt that these things never seem to end, and when you think you’ve heard the worse and trying to understand the scenario behind it comes another with it shock and sigh….. I just hope it all ends.

Let’s pray and put into action good deeds by bringing back the humanity in us.

Still yours truly,
Balikis.
