Where are we heading to?

Where are we heading to? This is the first thought that came to my mind today. Murder, rape, terrorism, war, it is inhumanity all over the world. I mean, a human's life has no value. Is this what we dreamed of? People are beaten to death by each other everyday. A soldier killing to protect his nation is a matter of pride but humans killing humans over religion, power, money is insanity. We are fast becoming the most savage of all the creatures that God created and today he must also have distanced Himself from us. We call the tiger, lion a beast but in reality we are the fiercest ones. Any animal unless for food, does not kill another one like us who kills without a reason, for pleasure for power. For centuries, we tried to rule over the giant creatures who once dominated our planet. We killed them for their skin, bones and we continue doing the same even today. The only difference is that we added another creature to our strike-off list humans.

Today, Iraq, Ukraine, Russia, Israel, Africa, Palestine are all having a show down of their power in front of their respective communities. They are killing, mutilating thousands and thousands just to climb up their ladder of greed and selfish virtues. It is a terrible state of affairs in each country. Even the self-proclaimed philanthropist country US, took a step back and did not for once come to the rescue of any of the innocent victims of the unwanted wars. Why don't all the so-called peace loving nations come forward and the UN be strong enough to oppose the barbaric act of terrorism that faces humanity today? I fail to understand that where is the willingness of doing something good and if not atleast to stop or raise a voice against inhumanity. 

I wrote about the horrors of UP in one of my previous blogs but today I was in tears and heart broken to hear about another incident that took place in this Hindi heartland of India. A 32 year-old mother of two was killed brutally on the 16th of this month for no fault of hers and the police along with the government of UP is mute. No action has been taken against the culprits so far although it was a planned murder. The woman was left to die in a school compound in the middle of the night. Are people like these worthy enough to live in our society? Why can't they be punished in such a way that they feel the same pain of brutality that the victim went through? That would set an example for the other beastly humans and these unworthy politicians who quote" boys will be boys they make mistake."

I appeal to all the humanity left in the world, let us come together not for our community or religion but for the society as a whole, for peace, for love and say no to crimes.
