To Be Human

The longer I go through life

the more I see how alike we all are.

We live

We die

We all have goals

Dreams

Aspirations.

We look at ourselves in the mirror and can see the similarities of our humanity staring back at us.

Then why are we all so filled with hate?

Is it really because we think we are that much better than the other person,

Or do we really just hate ourselves?

With such a common humanity from the shape of our bodies all the way down to the smallest cell

How is it that we can hate so much?

Maybe it is built into our nature without our awares.

Maybe we are missing something from our lives as being human.
