In a world neither yours nor mine we are rather very possessive, like a wild cat we mark our territory and go berserk on the first person that steps into our marked space. Although we live on a land that might be identified by different names and sliced into different places we still on ONE planet. We share the same air and breath the same diminishing oxygen; we worry about Carbon dioxide and less fresh water. Then again we all have marked out our land and gave it imaginary boundaries only visible on maps.
We should start seeing our time here as it is temporary shortly ending. With that truth in front of us we start planning our legacy making what once we took as our own to stay with in our bloodlines how far they may stretch. We share this time and space we live in with other fellow human beings that are very much entitled to the same ownership we seem to possess.
Then again no matter what religion preaches of equality or law states, we are very much not. Never mind how much tolerance we reach our civilization we will always find ways to isolate people and distinguish them into classes that be by race or occupation or even income. No matter what we overcome we always have more to achieve and for one to prosper another needs to lose.
We all say we want to be treated as equals, but equals to what? A Man? A race? Or nationality? I think we need to start looking at our selves and the way we conceive the world and change it, and then the world will view us the way we want it too.
We need to understand the place we live in, and understand the people around us before we ask anyone to understand us.
