Violence is what Makes Up this World

"We live in a copy of Eden, a copy that depends on violence."~ Carolina Ebeid

Do you agree or disagree with Ms. Ebied? What are your thoughts about our daily existence?


I have to agree. Behind every corner there's someone waiting to cause some type of violent act (in a sense). Everyone fears for their safety. No matter who you are. Black, white, gay, bi, trans, native American, police, children, the elderly, animals, anyone who drives, anyone or anything that breathes. It saddens me to think of how much violence is in this world. It comes in many different forms. Kidnapping, human trafficking, rape, robbery, bullying, torture, war, murder.....etc. I know world peace if far from happening, but why are we all fighting? What's the point? Honestly. We're all human (besides animals of course, but that's in the next paragraph) Whether you're Russian, American, Brazilian, Icelandic, Finnish, Arabian, etc. why are we fighting? Is it money? Politics? Different views? Well, yes, but why?

I digress....

Animals, children, and the elderly are powerless for the most part. Why are we attacking them? Is it because we have power and we can do what we want to them? Come on! They don't deserve this. No one does. It's absolutely ridiculous.

I should stop or I'll go on about this all night....
