Isolation
Isn’t it strange?
People are in abundance
More than ever before
Yet we feel lonely
Working away each day
To support our dearest
We want a good life for our mothers and fathers
our husbands and wives
our daughters and sons
for anything that we are told is family
Though in the bigger scheme aren’t we all family?
blood does not matter
proximity does not matter
even love does not matter
In the end we are all related
We all should have reason to care for one another
to trust and love
to make life good for us all
Instead we listen to the system
We segregate by blood, language, nation, race and what not
We don’t see ourselves as communities anymore
We become smaller and smaller
Kids moving out of their homes at 18
sometimes even earlier
because their focus is on becoming independent
their focus is on becoming an “adult”
Becoming an adult apparently means
becoming a fool
someone who listens to every word Media preaches
someone who does not think for themselves but follows the norm
Instead of questioning, they assume that any change is good
Sadly by the time they wake up
Life will be over.
Recommended reading: Medium is full of writers who are full of themselves, sharing only their own content. So I have decided to use the link function to share content from someone else that I really liked.
This time a video that maybe foreign but the subtitles will help understand how it relates. :)
