What is happening in our country? How can a small group of individuals spread so much hate and violence in such a short period of time? Domestic terrorism is on the rise, yet it is not being treated as such. How many more innocent lives need to be taken before something is done about it? Our own US congresswomen are being treated in an unfathomable manner. Children are being separated from their families at the border. Muslims are being denied entry into the country. The list goes on. All with one common denominator: Arrogance. Believing you are better than your fellow human being.
There are no words more powerful than "You have been diagnosed with [fill in the blank]." In one single moment your whole entire life changes. Nobody is immune to those words. We live life as if we're here forever. The rich are only getting richer, while losing compassion for those less fortunate. This country was built on great morals, where the American dream was attainable by all. Unfortunately, in the past couple of years, this dream is being stripped from almost everyone, except for a small margin of people. Why are we losing our humility and compassion so quickly?
One thing is undeniable: Rich or poor, young or old, white brown or black skin, man or woman, the size of our graves will be the same.
