We live in a world of despair.
Where misery and melancholy
is looked upon as the truth.
How can we not help but
feel lies will release us.
We live in a world of deception.
Where individualism is over ruled
by ideologies of individuals who
have power over us, how can we not
feel imprisoned by ourselves?
Why do we continue this cycle?
Are we so inept to cease the Devil?
Or is it we seek the truth but are
unable to comprehend it and use
lies to hide ourselves?
Perhaps we may even enjoy it.
The one truth that can free us
from are cage of lies is that
after a life fulfillment or one
of truth we all die someday
without death we would just
wonder and are only existence
would be random occurrences.
It may be true that we live in a
world of despair and deception
all we have to do is make the
most of it.

Hi,
A thought provoking write. Well done!
Being aware of the despair and deception is the
first step to doing something about it.
How about assigning a watch-dog individual
to each and every politician that we vote into
power - recording every word and every
movement. Too radical????
