I feel as though I have been born into a world where all the great thoughts have been thought, said, and fallen on deaf ears. The greatest thinkers of our race have told us love one another. Yet, we seem to predominantly continue to hate. I could be wrong. Maybe the effects of hate are just more dynamic and wide-spread. Why do fight? Why do we yell and scream? Why do we hurt each other intentionally? Why are we so awkward that we hurt each other unintentionally? Why don't we apologize more? Why don't people accept apologies? These are all questions I have no answers for. Perhaps if there were no pain or hurt in the world we would forget what hurt was. Then we would be surprised when pain arrived again unfamiliar and unknown. Are Pain and Hatred necessary? Perhaps without these unpleasant experiences we could not survive. Perhaps mankind is tempering itself in the fires of conflict. Mayhaps it is a part of evolution. or maybe that's silly rationalization.........
