What happened to us?
As I
walked home one evening, I noticed someone following me. My heart leaped, why
should this person follow me, what is the person's intentions? I slowed down
and sped up to see whether s/he would follow suit of my actions. I distracted
myself so this person could bypass me. S/he did, I noticed how curious s/he was
but in my mind, I could see him/her turning around any minute to attack. (it
was dark and I couldn't make out the gender) I moved slowly as s/he hurried
away while looking back. Could s/he be suspecting my actions and thinking I am
the wrong one?
In the
past, our kind feared only animals and reptiles, humans were friends! Humans
were safe to be around. If you walked the street alone and came upon a group of
people, your safety was guaranteed, but today it is the opposite; when you meet
a group of people, immediately run for your life.
What have
we become?
Back
then, we would jubilate for a couple that got together, if you bore a child,
reaped good yields... Today! Today! We loom with hate for another's success.
All we want to see is them coming down if they are up or not going up if they
are already down.
What
happened to us?
We can
change the trend
I can
change the trend
You can
change the trend
We can be
humans again!
