Standing in Silence

Sometimes our eyes don't see even though they are wide open. Mistakes are plenty but humbling ourself to admit them is few and far between. Could we survive only on our needs instead of our wants? Do most even know the difference? So many things in life we take for granted. Why is it so hard to compliment the things done right yet so easy to point out all you believe to be wrong. The world as we use to know it was full of morals, manners and respect. The world as we know it today is is full of rudeness, hate and violence . A man use to stand for what he believed and his word his honor. Now he stands behind nothing and speaks no words of what he believes or doesnt. Who made the world as it is today I ask, as I already know the answer. It's easy to blame our "leaders", our neighbors, or the generations before or after, but my friends, my brothers and sisters, if we speak the truth as we know it, it was you and I that changed this world when we stood silent. ©kimmied1105

If we all stood for what we believed in and stopped standing back in silence each and all of us are to blame for the ways of our world today.
