humanity.


Following to what has recently went on in the UK #brexit, I can’t help but got really saddened by the things I’ve been reading online. The aftermath has shown all the worst façade around us this day.

One might ask, why are you reacting? This has nothing to do with you; you’re so far off from the other side of the world.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not judging, I am not taking sides, I certainly do not think I know better nor feel like I am in any part of the 2 parties involved.

It is as simple as what we once called Humanity. Which, is shamefully, yet inevitably diminishing. That’s what saddened me.

People call each other names, telling each other where they should go, despising and rejecting one another based on mere one or two information/facts that are wrongfully conveyed, or intentionally done to cause chaos or own political/financial gain.

Now the people who are being played like willing puppets, I don’t know whether they participate to feel cool, updated, or simply just themselves being bitter with life and taking it out on anybody whenever they have the chance. I don’t know. It doesn’t make sense.

However, we are today living in a cruel world. Where to be kind and compassionate is such a challenge, a self-battle really. When it is supposedly the very basic human practice we ought to carry out.

People are easily angered, people are much bitter, people looking at each other with hatred, judgment, and mistrust, people moving so much in fear, people with the inability to be grateful but complain about every single little things. Oh dear…

So what’s my point? You might ask; I don’t really have any point to be made when started writing this. Just sad facts going on in this world today.

I guess to keenly search for a light in this dark is: us as individuals might want to start to make our little part of difference. Be kind to one another, life’s more beautiful and bright that way. Really, it advantages you the most! Treat others like how you want to be treated. Respect others like how you want to be respected. Love others like how you want to be loved.

Even if sometimes being nice gets you in trouble and disappointed, or taken advantage of, or disrespected, never give up in humanity. It once existed, we slowly but surely got robbed of it, and us, who live in today, safe to say we did not really get to enjoy/experience it. However, we are also the ones, the only ones that have the power to change and bring it back. Let’s have faith in each other again.

Start your little part, inspire others around you, perhaps the snowball effect will decide to present itself in a big way!
