Humanity

As human beings, we are all part of the same breed - the human breed. Despite this, we live in different cultures and societies that make us unique. Our upbringing influences the way our minds work, but if we were born into a different culture, our thoughts would be different.

Culture is essential for our survival and makes us uniquely human. We rely on others to care for us, teach us, and guide us on how to behave within our community. To protect our culture and creed, we create concepts like God, superstition, and Dharma.

However, in today's busy world, these concepts may seem irrelevant. We often act without thinking, and we only care about those who are in front of us. When conflicts arise, we break the barriers we created for our survival.

Is this the right way to live our lives? Is this what we want to teach the next generation? We should ponder on these questions.

In the words of Oscar Wilde, "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Let us strive to be the ones who look at the stars and aim for a better future, not just for ourselves but for everyone around us.
