Joie de vivre

If you really take a good look at our world, you will want to be out of it. Wars, crimes, hunger an endless list of human suffering. And if you think that human kind is so much in control then think again. Anyone can come up of a list of misfortunes that could happen to a person. But those are not my main concern here. I want to talk about the human cruelty.

It is not enough that nature could be man's worst enemy, humans can not stop killing each other. When I think of where the world is heading I fear for my children. The world is run by a bunch of politicians serving a bunch of god knows who to get to more power, money and ... and it does not matter who suffers in the process, and how many human lives are killed and tortured. Humans are creative when it comes to crulty to one another. All those people in power go bout their days while being witness and in a position to do change to those who suffer in the world and yet they do nothing. I can not imagine how can someone do that. What is it that drives a human to lose perspective to that extent. If you are a father, brother, son or friend. If you are a mother, sister, daughter or friend, would you want any harm to your loved ones. And no matter what your religious belief is you are going to die one day. Knowing and being all that how can you want anything so bad that you kill and torture people for. Those kind of humans will always be beyond my comprehension.

Living in the world we live in, I sturggle everyday to keep the joy in my life. I do my best not to see the news for one. I remind my self of the beautiful nature, a nice breeze, a beautiful sunset, the smiles of my children. Every night I fight my tears and pray to God to keep my family safe and sound.
