I've probably posted something along the lines of my point before. But my frustration continues to grow. People are ugly. I'm not talking about physical ugliness, not that I believe in it. I'm talking about that cruel, disgusting thing that lives in 90% of the people in this world. Maybe people are becoming harsher with the changing times, or maybe I have been blinded by the innocence of childhood. Humans just don't care about one another. Sure, it's easy to be kind to your best friend or sister, but what about that woman that passes you by on your daily walk? Or a random man that accidentally knocks you on the train?
I've always cringed at those cheesy poems about "friends being a treasure to hold on to". It's never been more clear to me how relevant those sayings really are. In the end you can't depend on the kindness of strangers, because they don't give a damn about you. Sure, they may smile at you; if only to avoid feeling guilty about it later. Humans are ugly because they will do anything to get what they want. We will lie, steal, hurt and kill. And when we get bored, guess what? We will lie, steal, hurt and kill. I mean, what kind of sick person tortures animals? Crashes a plane into a building? Takes pleasure in causing harm to a fellow human? I feel sick looking down at my own hands and knowing I am the same organism as they are.
I have been opened up to a lot of awful people recently. Perhaps they aren't as bad as the murderers and terrorists stinking up our pure planet, but they certainly leave their mark when it comes to the bigger picture. My point is, your really must stand back and appreaciate those few people in your life you can trust and laugh with. Sorry, but the reality is they don't come along very often.
Gosh, that last line sounded preachy.
Night,
