There was a time i can remember being able to say hi to all you meet.
There was a time you could trust your neighbor.
There was a time we could walk down the street and not be afraid of whom you may meet.
There was a time we were not afraid to leave our front doors unlocked.
There was a time you were not afriad to ride down the street with your car windows open.
There was a time we were not afraid to send our children to school or outdoors to play.
What have happen to these times where have they gone?
Now we are afraid to speak or look at anyone we meet.
The simplist thing as sending our children to school makes us wheary of what they may encounter once they leave our front door.
Guns shootings and explosives everywhere.
People taking their anger out on all those they may see.
Not caring who they hurt or what they may destroy.
Parents hurting their children and children hurting their parents.
HOW CAN THIS BE?
Family destroying the lives of other family members and friends killing friends.
What has brought us all to this?
Where did the love and kindness go?
Helping one another lending a helping hand.
We all need to pull together and change the wrongs of the world today.
There is a better way to handling things and getting things done.
Life is short enough on its own we do not need anyone to make it shorter for us.

I share your questions and feelings about this fallen world. My only hope is that what I find in Christ. |

Questions that need answers, time has changed so much, but yet we should thrive to do our part and do it well. |
