People often mistake ignorance as bliss, and its almost seemingly true. As people, we live within a world with so much poverty, with crime, with discrimination and racism but yet we go about our days often pushing it aside from our conscious. I wish I could ignore it all, I wish I could tune out the negativity. But have you seen the news lately? War and murders happening so frequently. Today I saw a little boy get shot from some sort of militant group in the east. He got up and saved his little sister. Innocent lives, elderly or young being targeted for no reason when they are not involved with those who harbour these hatred feelings. It breaks my heart to view these things, to see that this is what our world is becoming where war is sought out instead of peace. Another news clip of people going missing, within OUR nation and we dont even recognize it. People being taken, being murdered, being forgotten by the government, YET they will focus on a soldier killed in combat. Why is one life more significant or newsworthy than another? Why not focus on those missing, to spread the word, to return them to their families or at least give closure to them? My heart aches when I watch these things. Im saddened by the reality of our world, what everyone must endure. I swear we all could be the cure for this negativity.
