the need to empathise in our society is seriously lacking. not everyone is a smart genius. not everyone is a strong individual who harbours hopes of conquering the world. not everyone has ethics or morals. there are so many failed people in this world.
so what are you doing about it?
are you sitting there thinking how i'm so much better than them or are you thinking, what can i do to make the change?
do you want to be noble, or do you want to start sniping behind the fence?
i'm not perfect, far from it. but i can see that the best people are not the ones who have the best morals and values. the best people are the ones that, in spite of these morals and values, have the heart to look at people without these morals and values and offer them dinner, or a cup of tea. or sit down and have coffee with them. what is real emotional maturity is knowing that someone down there has issues even though he may be hiding it with a veil and be willing to help and come down to his level and sympathise with him. not this ra-ra enthusiasm of brotherhood in arms. we're all failed in some way or another (that's why we need God, in a way) and deep down there are hidden insecurities in everyone, even in the strongest Joe. but what disappoints me is that everyone is trying to pluck the plank from the other man's eyes rather than trying to be human.
