"But if you only have love for your own race,
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you are bound to get irate, yeah.
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates.
Man, you got to have love just to set it straight.
Take control of your mind and meditate.
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all."
--Black Eyed Peas "Where is the Love?"
Dear Diary,
Murders. Gangs. Theft. Assault. Rape. Bullying. I see and hear about it pretty much everyday. It's all over the news. It's talked about all the time. It's all over everything and you can't escape it. You can't escape the reality that this stuff is happening. You can't escape all the violence and the hatred, and I don't get it. I don't get why people have to do horrible things to other people, to animals, to everything.
We have so much hatred in this world, diary.
It's sad. It's sad that so many people think murdering somebody is no big deal. It's sad that so many people give in to their hatred, and I sit here and wonder why any of it matters.
Does it really matter what color you are?
Does it really matter where you live?
Does it really matter that so and so hurt your feelings or stole your girl or boy friend?
Does any of it really matter at all?
I don't get why it is so easy for some people to just pull out a gun and shoot someone. What is doing that going to prove? It doesn't make sense.
There are so many good things in this world, diary.There is so much to love, if we just take a second to look and see. I'm starting to realize this more and more.
Life isn't about hating things. It's not about hurting people. It's not about hurting anything.
It's about finding the beauty and love that's all around us.
It's about seeing the world for what it really is, and I don't think the world is an evil place.
And I don't think people were ever meant to have so much hate.
Somewhere along the way, I think some people just get lost, and have a hard time finding their way back. And in those moments, that's when we need love the most.
We just need to take a step back and look at the world around us, and after a while, maybe it wouldn't be so hard to see the beauty and love in people, in the world.
It is so easy to hate.
But, we need to realize, that it's just as easy to love.
So, why don't we just love?
Love Forever and Always,
Me
