I'm thinking the issues, thoughts and fears that aren't unique to a single individual but that a larger demographic of the general population can relate to.
So, let's go with something simple.
The decisions we make daily.
Watching the news and frankly all the information on social media, started to make me wonder whether this new virus is the pandemic or if it's nature's way of eliminating the true infection - Human beings.
And yes there are those of us who do good and contribute to society and help everyone and anything they can to make the world a better place.
But what about the rest of us. When was the last time any of us stopped to help an old lady cross the road or stopped traffic to make sure a kitten didn't get run over? know what. fuck that. That's too much to ask of us humans. When's the last time you called your parents or grandparents just to say "Hi"?
What is wrong with us? HOW is it that we can put another human being through hell for the littlest things and actually manage to sleep at night?
All the thieves, murderers and rapists are monsters. That's something punishable by law. And so we condemn it. But what about those of us who emotionally torture those people we say are 'the best part our lives' and those of us who disregard others feelings for personal gain?
And then there's the insufferable dipshits who think it's alright to disrespect the elderly and women just because their thoughts and beliefs don't align?
For the longest time there's been a question, 'What's more important, the journey or the destination?'
And although there's been conflicting opinions. The popular consensus is that it's The Journey.
I've come to disagree. In my opinion, it's neither the Journey or the Destination. These vary greatly for each individual.
What matters most is The COMPANION.
The reason I bring this up is because we all, All wish for better companions to take our own personal journeys with.
How is it fair to ask for the universe, God , fate to bring us the perfect companion when we have done absolutely NOTHING to ourselves be better companions for another person, or even a pet for that matter.
All I'm saying is that we need to change things. Or there'll be no destination left to get to by the time our children and grandchildren are around.
It's up to us to communicate with one another better. And make this a better world to live in.
