Blissful Ignorance is Outdated


If I could change something about the people of my world, it would be our ability to understand.

I wish we would think more about the stability of our lives if the tables twirled, would we still be slow to lend a hand?

So many battles are fought in silence and isolation, this world needs fellowship and a sense of solidarity.

What if we could help others with time as our donation? We need kind words and thoughtful actions-- hearts of charity.

Loving each other will develop the ability to learn about the soul, learning to understand each other leaves sadness eradicated.

We need to quit worrying about ourselves individually and worry about society as a whole, blissful ignorance is outdated.
