Even though there is a big part of jealousy (1) in the world,
an even bigger part of greed (2) and hatred (3),
a still bigger part of selfishness (4),
kindness (5) is on the increase
Kindness is on an exponential curve.
Do you know how exponential curves go?
Initially, they go up very slowly, but up they go.
Then they meet an inflection point and
suddenly they go up very steep.
I am sure we are pretty close to that inflection point
Nothing else can happen when kindness increases,
than that (1), (2), (3) and (4) hopelessly shrink.
and that is what they are doing now.
Still in the slow phase of shrinking.
but soon they will meet their own downwards inflections point
and they will go falling off a huge cliff to scatter
and to never return.
Hard to believe?
Just shut down your TV and
start looking at the world.
Watch and see with your own eyes

to be frank, i hope men who practice polygyny will also reduce exponentially, and the plateau is zero.
ReplyDeletei could not believe my eyes and ears when i found out there's still such practice in the modern world. (i'm a male)
i feel that it's closely related to (1),(2),(3) and (4) (if not previously, at least in the current world).
what do you think?
Thanks for the comment.
DeleteI somewhere believe that there is a higher reason why we are facing so many things related to 1,2,3 and 4. We may not understand why now with our human minds (I think you will like my poem, the story of why, http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/y-the-story-of-why/). The closest we can come to an explanation, i think is in my reflection 3 http://reflectionsbyhans.blogspot.my/2014/04/reflection-3.html
Thank you for the reply. I love your poetry very much.
ReplyDeleteI believe if a person is suffering because of a natural disaster / disease / accident or even pure ignorance / unintentional negligence, believing that it happens for a reason (trials and tribulations to strengthen our faith, as in “fire tests and purifies gold”) may help in the acceptance of the fact. And this acceptance may help us in letting go a major bereavement and progress in a positive way.
However if a person (and the family) is being harmed because of another human's intention / purposeful behaviour, i sincerely feel that that should not be rationalized / accepted easily.
Just like dealing with issues of wars, female genital mutilation, anti-vaccine group, organ donation etc, the willingness to change our perspective positively may help the whole community to progress in a positive way.
Let’s make this world a better place to live in :)
