Pensive...

I'm am pensive, not sure what of, just simply pensive. Deep in thought, shrouded in my own reality. Wondering about everything. Somehow, i targeted the recent spate of events. The tsunami. It descended pain and misery upon its victims. What was its purpose? Was it really a doing of a Higher Being, to punish Man for his sins? But why South East Asia, where the people lived innocent and happy lives, why not the scheming and conceited countries in other parts of the world? Was it simply His way of population control? Were the victims sacrificed as a means to evoke compassion once again in this steely world? Was it simply natural occurence? Or Fate? WHAT is the reality of things? We cannot explain...

And what i find most depressing and distressing is the avariciousness of Man in this time of disaster. I guess it's simply Man's nature to be selfish and keep the best for himself. Therefore, unity in its truest sense is unattainable, because we cannot even attain unity among fellow human beings, even the one same species of animals unite in strength against vicious foes. Ironically, us humans, the most intelligent beings on this very Earth, cannot abstain from the temptations of internal strife, expects to exact their judgements and manner upon others and subjugate them to their will and political power-plays and threats. We cannot, over so many millenia of evolution acheive unity, for all our ingenuity, for all our philosophies, for all that we are now, unity still remains a faraway ideal...
