The shame — Hive

Does the winter hate the spring, or the summer hate autumn? Of course the answer is no...The planet doesn't hate, it works together, each element in support of the next, a collection of individual events and unique elements combining to create the whole...A living entity that thrives, without hate, malice and prejudice.

Animals too, play out a cycle amongst themselves and as part of earth's inhabitants. They take what is required, free from hate and malice, simply surviving. One takes another, then may be taken in turn, an endless cycle, called life, circular and symbiotic. No prejudice, no selfishness, no hate.

And humans.

Hate, prejudice, ego, selfishness, hubris, malice, consumerism, greed, callousness, carelessness, excess, impropriety, dishonesty...Corrupt, unscrupulous, rapacity...

Not all of course...But the actions of some taint the rest in some manner.

Are any of the human race unimpeachable and above reproach? Is any single person able to hold their hand up and say my actions are completely and totally unquestionable?

I applaud people standing up for those who cannot, the weak, infirm, women and children and those who have been brutalised by people in positions of privilege and authority.

I condemn those that use the premise of doing so as an excuse for their own brutal, unconscionable, selfish, anti-social and violent behaviour.

Shame humans. Shame.

“Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction.”
Martin Luther King
