What is Helping Spread Hatred?

At What Cost....

It seems like today the gadgets are more complicated, child rearing more challenging, marriage has almost lost its importance, religion is not as known, jobs are under paid, I could go on forever. How is this affecting us all? Newborns, toddlers, pre, grade, middle, high schoolers, collegers, young adults and matured adults? People are losing the personal interaction with one another. We are so captivated by the bigger, better, newer, shinier, louder and more expensive. At what cost though? Have we become so complicated that simple isn't satisfying? Do we crave drama? Are you happy with simple, peaceful and out dated? Is hate breeding because we are all hooked to complication? Imagine how happy, connected, hard working and genuine the world was just a few short years ago and how damaged it is today. What is it going to be like for the next generation? Are we really willing to rely our own destinies on the effects from all the technology and materials, with the cost solely resting on our shoulders? Will we all realize how this is affecting us in enough time to spare our families and have change to spare?

 

Are you a Conqueror or Conquered?

Can you do for others even if they don't do for you? Do you find yourself taking advantage of advantages? Do you argue to prove a point or to prove your love? Are you out to get for yourselves or to give yourselves? Do you see those you love as a priority or do you come prior? Do you help graciously or avoid the helpless? What type of person are you? Are you selfish or selfless? Is the love in you stronger for you or others around you?

If most of the time you try to love others more than yourself than the selfish bone, which lies in us all, won't grow harder and larger and in return will stifle any growth of hatred and build and encourage the growth of love. Love conquers all! Go be a conqueror and not be conquered.

Are People "People" Anymore?

Maybe we are just that; PEOPLE. Definition... The body of persons who compose a community, race, or nation. Think about how many people are happy being people. What happened to having humanity? What would happen if we changed into humane people? Let's see what having humanity would be like. Definition... The quality of being human or humane; mankind collectively; kindness; benevolence; classical and polite literature. Think of the difference this would make in our relationships with neighbors, co-workers, family and strangers. What would the change in us breed? Would the hate still be desired? Would the hate become the hated? What could this lead to, being humble, generous, helpful, grateful or ambitious? If being a humane person brought one of these qualities to every person, what would the world be like in a few short years? Would there be any hatred left or would we be so connected that all the positives would breed and we would never again just be people.
