Mankind's Journey

Mankind's Journey

Life is a journey of happiness and sorrows, 

we humans play the role of creator and destructor simultaneously, 

and at time commit some follies knowingly or unknowingly to achieve satisfaction.

Are we in real sense satisfied with what we do?   

I guess certainly not.

Because we are just competitors of an awful race.

We follow nothing worth but greed.

We forget that we have left the worthy and most important part of our existence 

called-'mankind' far behind.

Interesting read and true in seeing the people in a majority view. You will find, however, many cultures see the flaws of humankind yet know they cannot change it as they are a minority. The very fact that you see and acknowledge this separates you from the majority as well.

And so it brings a sorrowful thought of how one is hard-pressed to change the flaws of the world when the majority cannot even begin to comprehend it.

Amazing write!

Though somehow we can't blame each other. Majority or Minority doesn't make any difference among all of us...Until we care for ourselves.

Thank you Lavi, For reviewing this poem. Means a lot:)

"We're all like you
We've all seen through your eyes
With our lives
It's not easy to go through, believe me
It's alright
We're all alike"
- Through your eyes, Evans Blue

A message I often recall when struggling with something that I feel I have to face alone, when I truly doubt I am. We can all relate to something, even without experiencing something... our accuracy to such is based on our own experience in the lives we live, and although it may seem beyond many (and perhaps will be for many years) it is not something we have to face on our own... it is something we can change, so long as we are strong enough to accept our hearts over the rulings of our minds. To care for ourselves, as you said, to make a difference even if it only affects one life at a time, in a place full of hundreds of people.
