What is This Life All About? Part 1

It's a strange thing about life. I don't quite understand it, and it wouldn't surprise me to know that there are lots more people out there who don't understand it either.

I mean look at us, I think that humans are the strangest creatures on earth!
How many animals do you know that destroy themselves the way we do, how many animals do you know destroy their own kind like we do.

Sure some animals may hunt and destroy another species but they always look after their own. Animals know or care nothing about race, color or status. Sure some animals are more dominant than others, like the Lion for instance, but they don't need to step on anyone to be at the top. Most animals unless provoked are quite content to live in peace and harmony.

We humans on the other hand are a totally different matter……..

As adults we get upset when our children misbehave and disobey us, we can't comprehend why when you tell a child or a teenager not to do something they do it anyway even when they know that they can get hurt, but think about this, adults do that all the time too.

People know that driving drunk can injure or kill themselves or someone else, but they do it anyway.

Smokers and Drinkers are told ever so often that over indulgence is dangerous to their health, and can eventually kill them, but that doesn't stop them.

Addicts, alcoholics etc. they always say that they know when to stop, that they can stop anytime they want, but they don't realize until its too late that its not that simple or easy.

How can we expect children to do the right thing when adults keep doing the wrong things?

Right now, we live in a very dangerous and envious world. Families, friends and strangers alike are fighting and killing each other over money, property and other earthly treasures, things we came into this world without and will leave this world without.

Friends and family members take each other to court, friendships and families are broken up because it's more important to be right than to forgive and forget. Love is sacrificed for pride and ownership.
