Why do we live?
Is it to just fill the earth or till it?
Why do we live?
Is it for us to mate, procreate then feel fulfilled?
Why do we live?
Is it for us to struggle and toil to make ends meet?
Why do we live?
Is it for us to learn how to talk then start living a lie,
make friends and when they need us the most we stab them in the back
Or be slaves to people that treat us like trash
Work had to earn that dough but ain't gettin' nuthin
Meanwhile a microscopic few are embezzling money?
Why do we live?
Is it for us to live shortly then embrace death's handshake, living unfulfilled lives?
Is it for us to watch TV and watch people missing without a trace
Bombs exploding from place to place
Insane sadistic paedophiliacs raping pre-teens yet the law does nothing to appropriate a sentence to at least pacify for stolen innocence?
Is it for us to stand for good yet gunned down because our beliefs and principles are contrary to those approved by the "higher authorities"?
Is it for us to live and see how children are dying of starvation while national executives lead luxurious lives and turn away their faces from those living in abject poverty?
So many things are going wrong in our societies and are we to just sit back and watch them prevail?
Should we allow our lives be trampled on by political scumbags that spit propaganda and do nuthin' while in office?
Should we continue to...
It hurts k owing that we have the power to effect a change but yet lack the will to push through
Courtesy of pressure from pessimistic individuals whose mantra: I WISH I could...
Why do we live?
Let's ask ourselves that question
I hope we find the answer that will bring succour to this falling generation...

Yes we should continue! This is so sad and so painfully true but u must not give up on the human race. You have heard the saying things have to get the worst before they get better right? What if this all sunddenly got Worcester as the world is purging making room for the light?
I'm not asking u to beleive or even consider my ramblings...there is so much good in the world and in humans too, do to loose faith my wonderful friend.
There is always more than meets the eye, always a bigger picture or plan. Light always prevails over dark...in the end :)

great write - asking the most important question anyone could ask of themselves and or others
I'm afraid I am too cynical to add to your possible answers or to push for change in myself or others.
I live because it is better to be alive than it is to be dead - marginally
:-)
