The world is a wicked place. There isnt. love in it anymore. I know
that some people dont agree with me. They say that there are very many
volunteers and philanthropists all over the place. These good people show
us. love and not envy or jealousy. But why do
optimistic people not talk about poverty, which you find in many countries? Is it
not caused by hatred and selfishness of rulers? Well,
some people may say that.. Poverty and.. selfishness
have always been with the human race. But I see poverty, jealousy and hatred
around me, which causes so many wars all over the world, I am full of
sadness. .Happiness I enjoyed in my childhood has all gone
because I only see so much.. sadness around me. Never will joy of my
childhood come again.
