Environmentalists are crying hoarse about environmental degradation, social workers don’t have means to carry out their work, but who cares? As long as I, Me, Mine is comfortable, who cares how the rest of the world lives or dies?
The haves are unwilling to share since their existence is based on “having”, the have – nots don’t have opportunities and yet are better sharers than the haves since they know the pain of being have-nots. The haves are a miniscule percentage of the total population and yet control almost all wealth, power, fame. This is an unfortunate reality of today’s world and we are busy chasing “having” more instead of sharing.
Who bells the cat? We have inherited this mess, it is our responsibility to clean it and not pass it on as a legacy for the coming generations. We all know what is to be done for improving the environment/society but we are not taking action on it thinking that it is the Government’s job to do so and we are paying taxes. Is it working? No! Then? Take ownership of small positive changes in society/environment, whether the change will make an impact on the society or environment is besides the point, it will make you a sharer which is what the world needs…
