The Fault In Our World

The importance of the well-being of our fellow brother has been lost.

Lost among parsimonious people.

 

But I say to you, I say to you that we must fight, fight for our fellow brother who desires food so that he may live to see another day, so that he may find peace in his journey on this earth we take for granted.

 

I say to you fight, fight for those who have nothing so that they may be presented with something.

I say to you, don’t lose sight, take a look around, lift your head away from that little blue screen and use your eyes to see that yes, life is more than just a “like” or a “favorite”.

 

I say to you, life is beautiful so savor it.

 

I’ve seen what we have become and the ugly we portray as “beauty” and I’ve had enough.

 I’m tired of the excuses; soon social media will become the new nooses

 

 I say to you, life is beautiful so savor it.

I say to you, if that’s asking too much, don’t give me your like or favorite…just save it.
