As we know, the world can be a dark place. We’ve had wars, apartheid and wrongs in the past that would make a grown man cry.
We’re so much better now, aren’t we? Now we live in a place where people walk past a two year old girl lying in the road, badly hurt as she was run over by not one but two bakkies. A place where people torture, rape and eventually after 40 days, kill a 16 year old innocent girl. Where people kidnap and kill small children and bury animals alive. We’re so much better now?
The disgust and shame I feel as a person when I read some of the horrendous stories in the news is nothing compared to what the victims of these crimes feel. The purpose of this blog post is to remind us that there is good and bad in the world and that we should remain cautious.
Please help and try to do good where you can but always remember that the bad is sometimes waiting, lurking in the background waiting to be found by good people.
Remember that it’s a good and bad world we live in.
I don't think we are much better of today than those years our parents grew up. We might have moved on technology-wice, socially however we have gone from bad to worse.
