Manifestation of Hatred

Disputes between individual's perspectives on topics leads to fighting, war, and bloodshed.

Disputes between individual's perspectives on topics leads to fighting, war, and bloodshed.

Therefore, we fight

But is it necessary?

We all want peace, do we not?

But which peace?

Human peace or world peace?

Prior to college, I wanted human peace

An idealistic world where humans will not fight and bicker

I was wrong

People use you for their benefits and then throw you aside

It sparks anger, hatred, and evil

I gave up on my dreams of human peace and dreamt of world peace

World peace is attainable

World peace does not necessarily mean to need human peace

I wanted to attain world peace because I lost hope in humanity

When I was in high school, there was no peace for my friends and me

Beaten and arrested for cops

Abused by our parents

But for what reason?

Sure, we did some mischievous acts

But what ignited our will to do so?

I was sick of being physically and mentally abused by my parents

I was sick of being belittled from my teachers

I was sick of my peers making fun of how I talked and walked

I was manifested with hated for everything and everyone

Yet I still wanted human peace

But for what reason?

It was for people like me, my friends

I continued my academic career

I attended college

And this is where I saw my dreams of human peace to be impossible

My perspective changed again

I met a professor who cared about me

Who believed in me

Who thought highly of me

This was when I thought human peace was possible

It was attainable through kind actions to others

I wanted world peace,

I wanted quiet,

I wanted to be alone on the world,

But now I want to be kind to everybody

The warm feeling of having someone believing in you is indescribable

I do not feel heavy anymore

I felt the world was weighing me down

It was lifted by kind acts

And to do more, I can shed light to human peace

I can attain it

Human peace is possible
