Back when we were seven, we always have been wanting to grow up and became an adult. Yet so many of us, who already an adult or almost becoming one wants to go back. Sometimes I realize, growing up and become an adult is a horrifying truth and cold. It’s hard to endure and much more hurtful to go through.
Some of us are still battling depression, anxiety and loneliness. We tend to find comfort through others and not from within. Sometimes the world was cold enough, that it could break your heart in second. Hence, we always feel lonely and miserable. Becoming an adult is pretty much scary, I would say. But I’m just a mere 17-years-old girl, who hasn’t really understand the world.
Growing up in this kind of society, made me dream a whole new world that would never exist. Where people are kind to others, considerate of others, loving and caring to everyone despite their colours, religions, and point of view. Nowadays, my nightmare is no longer ghosts or aliens. It’s people. For instance, every video on YouTube would come along with horrifying comments.
“She’ll be divorce in a few years, believe me.”
“He is such a loser.”
“They’re too fake, so ugly.”
Looking at these negativities makes me wonder how horrible human is. I realize how many of us still think that our words have no impact on others. This negativity that has been going on throughout our society has killed so many lives, torn thousands of families, darken millions of youths’ future.
The longer I observe, the worst we became. We keep on judging those who’ve made mistakes and those who live in such circumstances. We tend to deny the importance of understanding and compromise. We tend to shut off and continue being selfish. When all we should do is the opposite of it. We hate the idea of people taking our rights, yet we were judging those who strive for their rights. You don’t need a religion to show your humanity, you only need empathy, love and understanding.
In the conclusion of this, I would love for you to ask yourself an important question. Would you love to be treated the same way you treat your parents, your children, your partner, and the society you living in?
