Has humanity died or did humanity even exist in this selfish world? I just keep wondering of this because with the happenings around the world, I strongly feel as if there is no such thing as humanity anymore. I mean in a world where people are being stoned to death while others stand there to watch and make videos, where is humanity? Where are the feelings of these humans? How selfish is this world? Is this the world I’m a part off? Where are all the so-called human right activists? I feel sick to even consider myself to be a citizen of this selfish, insensitive world full of people.
Someone recently told me that one should look at the percentage of people who are being affected before making an issue out of it or having a biased opinion regarding the issue. My question is simple: How many lives have to be affected before it’s considered to be an “issue” in the eyes of this society? I personally have always felt that every single person that is affected by any kinds of wrong-doings needs to be heard. I don’t need to see proof of thousands of people being affected before I think of helping them. If I was a minority and I had issues, I’d want someone to hear me out too. I’d want someone to help me and be my voice as well. I am sure somewhere in this world, someone else feels and thinks like me too. It shocks me that people refuse to even acknowledge the problems that exist in our society and countries. And then when someone speaks up against such issues, they told that one should not have biased opinions just because something like “that” has happened to someone they know. Are they not humans? Do they not deserve to to be heard and served justice to? Regardless of whether one knows the people who are being affected or not, there is something called humanity and that should exist in each human. Everyone in this world is an equal citizen, they all deserve to have the same rights.
Perfect example is the horrific brutal killing of two brothers on Sialkot, Pakistan. The brothers were assumed/wrongly accused to be the robbers, when in fact they had absolutely NOTHING to do with the robbery that took place. Now since this kind of killings don’t happen so often, it’s such a small number..should we not speak out against it? Should we not ask for justice? Should we just sit back and let it slide considering it’s really only a very very small percentage of people that are being affected? Really??? Now that I think of it, isn’t that what really happened? The people that were standing there along with the police to watch this inhuman incident take place as if it was some circus, isn’t that what they did? Didn’t they have some sort of a duty to prevent this? Did they not step up and try to stop this from happening because they were afraid of getting hurt? If killing wasn’t enough, they were tied and hung upside down to a tree and these pathetic people stood there making videos! Where were these people’s feelings? Is there no such thing as humanity? What would’ve required for these people to have stopped this incident from taking place? Did they need to share some sort of a relation with the boys? The family? Do we all not share a common relation of humanity?
I certainly have never felt so sad and shameful in my life. Feel sick to my stomach every time I think about the boys and their families. I feel sick to think that there are people who exist in this world who would stoop to this level. I pray to God that He makes them pay! He makes them pay for being so heartless and insensitive.
When one looks around all the natural disasters, diseases and innocent lives being taken, you wonder why all this is happening. Why is God doing this? The answer is already there. Because the people of this world have never been appreciative of what we have been blessed with. We are so selfish and greedy that we don’t realize the damage we have done to this world. We have messed up the beautiful earth and made it into a hell. That is what we are paying for. We are paying for our sins and we still don’t learn. You look around and you see how unaffected some people are by all this. The politicians forget and move on within days if not hours. While the innocent lives are being taken, they continue to go on about their business of corruption. They forget that one day they will have to answer to God for all their doings. Don’t they fear God? Don’t they fear karma?
What are we really teaching our current and future generation? I have little cousins, nephews and nieces…is this the example we are setting for them? Is this alright to happen? I wish to be no part of this sick and pathetic world.
