Society Needs To Evolve

The violence needs to stop and together we can make it end.

Society Needs To Evolve
Now Here This

I’m tired. I’m upset. I’m sad. I’m angry. I’m tired of all of the needless deaths. The discrimination that happens to people everyday. The obvious racism and sexism in today’s world. I’m so tired of it. People aren’t treated equally. There is no fair treatment and the love that is supposed to be around is few and far between.

I’m upset that no one feels safe especially minorities. I’m upset that some people support this and don’t want them to feel safe. I’m upset that some people don’t care. That it’s just looked over. Those are the same people that would be upset and indignant that they were looked over. I’m upset over all the hypocrisy that part of society is showing.

I’m sad that people are killed for no reason. That acts of terrorism are happening and killing so many. I’m sad that racial stereotypes are causing people to be killed daily. I’m sad over all the deaths. I’m sad that everything in the news is about senseless murders. People who didn’t need to be killed. They had families and friends who are now devastated.

I’m angry that society hasn’t evolved enough for everyone to think this is not okay. I’m angry there isn’t more peace in the world and acts of terrorism are happening more often. I’m angry that these things have to he said because people still belittle so many things.

I cannot imagine how these families feel whose family member was killed due to racial stereotypes. I’m sorry about how unsafe you feel by just going outside. I cannot imagine how the families of the 84 people who were killed in Paris feel. Terrorism is a deplorable act and I am sorry for your loss.

By not doing anything or saying anything, you are letting racial stereotyping happen. You are not helping anyone learn and evolve that skin color does not describe how someone will act. Everyone needs to an equal chance.

Everyone needs to come together against terrorism. It’s unacceptable and devastating. It doesn't need to be worried about. It should not even be a thing. I hope this reaches someone who needs it or wants to learn.

Summer Slump

Summer is a time for fun in the sun, hanging out with friends, and living it up, but for some people, that's not the case. Summer is a nightmare for idle minds. Let me explain what I mean by that. For people with mental illness having the extra time to think and relax can be devastating for their mental health. Now, this isn't a problem for everyone but for some people who suffer from mental illness, this is a reality.
