Pestiferous

In this world, no one gives you what you desire. You must seek it, earn it, and in some cases, take it. Whether it is food, money, freedom, or anything else.

The only thing you cannot take is love.

Today a nation took its independence. They broke free, and yet their hope must be mixed with fear, anger, doubt, because the world will not give it the freedom it desires. Another country wants to possess it. Other countries fear the consequences of supporting it. Everyone has their own agenda, their own motivations, and they do not care about the nation that wants its freedom.

Greed, politics. These are the poisons our world feeds upon nowadays. We steal other people's food, we work ourselves to death for a dollar, we imprison our enemies and sometimes our friends. We cannot see past the clouds to the blue sky above. We think it is a dark day. We forget that the sun is always shining. We are sick, and we spread our sickness to the rest of the world.

Love is the only cure.
