Why it does not pain my heart When I hear about children and mothers being killed by heartless gunmen in a distant land of rough mountains.
Why it doesn't wrench my heart When I hear about people dying by drowning in the sea while trying to reach the land of the heartless people.
Why it doesn't crush my heart When I hear about old people, abandoned by the family & society, dying from a demeaning illness in the land of rich and intelligent people.
I ask myself; Have I become numb to pain experienced by others? Have I become blind to other's suffering? Have I become indifferent to life?
No.. no.. those reasons aren't true. The truth is that I am a heartless Person.
