As I stroll down many roads, and watch several events, I wonder if we have not lost our way. Words like conscience, remorse, shame, intrinsic values do not seem to exist anymore. Have we lost our way?
Two years ago my children gave me a subscription to dating sites as a Valentine's Day gift. This was in anticipation of their plan to move away from the nest. My initial reaction to their offer was "thanks but no thanks". Then, with plenty of hesitation and fear, I agreed to explore the possibility of finding a mate online.
Instead the ugliness I uncovered had shocked me and rendered me speechless.
I discovered web of liars, con artists, cowards, criminals. Such bizzare creatures are using their computer screens or their telephones as hideouts. What a shame! What a dysfunctional, monstrous and sickening society we are creating!
We are giving ourselves free passes to hurt "others' children" as long as they are "not ours". Not understanding that others have the same mentality to hurt others' children as long they are not theirs. So at the end we all become a bunch of fools and losers.
For we are all threads of the same fabrics. We are all intertwined in the same fabric called universe. We are parts of tbe same body. As a head, one does not care for the injury of little fingernails or toenails until the pain radiates and give them a massive headache. We are different elements, cells, structures of the same body. Without you being whole I will not be whole. Your cough will make me sneeze.
When we hurt a woman, we hurt all women. we hurt our mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, cousins, female friends and wives. When we hurt a man, we hurt all men. We hurt our fathers, sons, brothers, cousins, uncles, male friends and husbands When we hurt a child, we hurt all children, our children. When we hurt each other, we are hurting our ownselves.
