Why are we supposed to act humanely when deep inside most of the people are just so selfish. Why did this term humanity exist when in reality most of the human beings fail to fulfil the basic deeds which are considered as humanity. And it hurts when you try to be as human as possible with those animals pretending to be human.
Sometimes I really do wonder whether I should forget about all my manners and behave similarly to those inhuman beings. Why are we supposed to be so good yet every selfish action comes with an explanation. We were taught a poem in school and the line that captivated me the most was -“वही मनुष्य है कि जो मनुष्य के लिए मरे।”.It means only those are human who can die for a human. And I learnt that lesson with my whole heart. But I guess for most of us it was just another poem to cram up for examinations.
Well, that explains state of the world right now. Of course there are good people out there but why is it so hard to find them. And most of the situations do not expect you to literally die to help another human. Just wear your mask properly and you can save lives. But still comfort comes first to most people and they cannot even stand a bit of breathless when thousands are struggling in hospitals to get enough oxygen until their last breath. When so many are not able to see their loved ones for one last time, people cannot postpone their parties because dude they are dying at home. I do not know from where that sense of entitlement or foolishness came in those people.
Why cannot they feel the pain of all those innocent people, all those innocent doctors who are losing their lives even after taking all the precautions? Just because someone’s comfort comes first, others continue to lose their lives. How did that become fair in people’s mind? And in this short period of time, I have seen some of the nicest, selfless people losing their faith in humanity. How did we become so self centered that we cannot see those people dying on the inside everyday. Is it the result of getting so many resources that we forgot that humanity created comfort and not the other way round. Nowadays comfort comes before everything and it is becoming difficult to go on loving this unfair world. Where the people who are most thoughtful have to suffer the most. Where all this conciousness comes with fear and hopelessness.
I hope there is light at the end of this tunnel as well. And I wish we will reach the end of this tunnel a bit sooner. Because I do not want to fill my heart with all this hate when nature has given us so much to admire.
