Humans Have Lost Their Humanity

Check it out!  

Kindness, understanding, compassion, empathy, and forgiveness are not The Cooties! Why are so many people in this society, in this world, well... Assholes? Why is it so difficult to accept that we all make mistakes, we all screw up, we all misunderstand something at some point in time, we all hear something incorrectly, we all mis-speak, we have all made a wrong choice, a bad judgement call, we all have bad days, and we all have accidents of some sort or other...We ARE HUMAN. We are all sharing space in this life doing our best to make a living, raise kids, be a friend, a daughter, a husband, and be a positive contributor to society.

Why do people try to hurt one another? Make others feel inferior? Assume the worst in others? Manipulate others? Hold grudges? Be spiteful? Act out of anger? React with bitterness and resentment? Trying to prove that they are superior, right, better, smarter than someone else? Have such hostility and animosity towards others? Why do people carry so much pride that it weighs them down? Why do people belittle others to make them feel better about themselves? Why can't we admit our faults, fears, mistakes to one another? Apologize readily? Acknowledge each other's imperfections and accept one another unconditionally- as HUMAN?

The word 'human' contains 'relating to' in its definition. So, why don't we relate to each other, our strifes, our mere existence? Why is there no support of one another? Where is our GRACE for each other? One definition of grace is 'courteous goodwill' - WHERE is our GOODWILL TOWARDS OTHERS?

For the life of me I can't understand why humans do not band together to make living each day a joy, a privilege. We all face like hardships in life at some point or other, so why aren't we a source of light, strength, encouragement, comfort, and compassion for our FELLOW mankind?

There is too much violence, anger, negativity, outrage, narrow-mindedness, judgment, persecution, belligerence, and road rage! Yes, road rage! There is way too much senseless road rage!

We need to CHOOSE to replace Cynicism with Idealism. Pessimism with optimism. Hostility with Gentleness. Vengeance with Forgiveness. Intolerance with Acceptance. Apathy with Empathy. Petulance with Patience. Malice with Kindness.

People need to HAPPY THE HELL UP. We've got one shot at this life. What do we want our legacy to be? To each other, to our children, to the world??
