Human delusion

5 years old receiving a medal for her fallen brother during the war
The human being is disappointing,
we always talk about how much we are capable of creating and innovating,
but it is incredible how all the beautiful things that unite us and must guard our legacies are the first to be destroyed including life and respect for each others.

What is the point of war?
What's the logic behind this when we could come together more,
the world is full of so many fascinating things that could be shared and learned such as culture, love, languages, sports, art, science.
What's the point of being smart if you're not emotionally stable to the point of empathizing with your neighboring country?

What is the point of destroying and wanting to dominate when you are unable to dominate that storm within your soul
when you are not brave enough to change and improve without hurting others?

Before speaking out of the truth about others without knowing what is happening inside those four walls, we should evaluate ourselves first.
We will have to learn to be better, to speak louder when something is not right, without being afraid of the consequences.

I would like a purer world, full of joy, but it is impossible knowing the nature of my peers.
Why be so skeptical when we can be the most harmonious whole, and the most brilliant specie.

I'm not at all proud of my animal specie, because yes, we are thinking-animals, beings with "reasoning"
but at times like those that have been happening in recent years
between war and pandemic,
every day there are more reasons to be disappointed in this modern society of ours.

We cannot stop being selfish and think about our own benefit instead of peace between each others when it comes to politics. 

Only great men are able to give satisfaction, all the rest that follow fashions to be accepted in the social schemes are quite shameful.

Be different, try to be the good change world needs.

God helps and protects Ukraine 🙏
