Through the tinted glass we look
No pain or sufferings
What we know is what is heard
And what is heard is what's being said
No freedom as an individual
just puppets in a huge politically entangled web
One day, the glass would shatter
and the truths spill out.
Released just like a Pandora’s box
The brutality of some
would cause us to weep.
Not knowing,
living in such a sheltered world we were.
Who now decides on life and death?
How do you differentiate right from wrong?
Good from evil?
Is one person's life more important than the other?
Does not the same blood flow in all our veins?
Each human being having a father and a mother.
But even in such likeliness,
discrepancies still occur.
A child becomes an adult overnight.
However amidst this chaos,
great people are moulded.
Humanity, compassion and love for one another.
Character is built and bonds formed.
A rainbow appears shining through the clouds,
as always after a downpour.
A symbol of hope in our lives.
We can and will survive.
Was blog hopping when i found this prose that i wrote sometime back.
at that point of the it was for my communcations skill
lesson.
and i had very wittingly trapped myself into coming up with an oh so original piece of work.
this thus came about in response to the impending iraq war and all the political strife.
however, never was i to know, my words were to be such prophecy...the brutality of the deeds made known since then has indeed caused many to weep.
many a times bringing to mind the question of whether humanity remained in society nowadays.
what with all the pain and suffering humans are inflicting on one another.
sure the yearly donation drives show that there are humans who do care.
but then again, is caring really simply just a yearly habitual occurence?
recently, there is the pass it forward care and share campaign.
although i do not really understand the concept of it all. i believe that even without the card or the campaign, it still can be actively practised.
let's all pass it forward. be it a word hUg(refer to previous post) or a kind deed.
let us not be the only ones benefitting...
bring a smile to someone's face today!
