This is the world that has ended. A world that has no one else. In this room is a small table and chair. A wasteland beckons beyond the window outside. The house is old; I cannot say for certain when it was built. I have been living here all alone. For how long? I do not know myself.
Sometimes I venture out, picking up things I need. There is not anyone else outside. Under the dim sunlight, there are so many small lights flying all around. I picked up pieces of wood, nails and many other things to create a friend. But, would it make my creation happy to be born in a world like this? Would it befriend me after letting it walk on the grounds of this world?
While such a query echoed inside my heart. I am not certain what I should do or not. I do know that, I do not want to be alone anymore. I want a friend.

Racism and Discrimination
Getting discriminated for who you are is no pretty walk in the park. There are quite a number people who are affected by racism. How would you feel if that was you? Getting discriminated against every day for you being you? Racism is like getting accused of a crime, it is unfair especially when you have done nothing wrong.
Discriminators have caused people to die. They have caused death because they can't take such racism comments. Just because of their skin colour, it can cause such havoc.
It is simply barbaric for people to pull of stunts like this and cause death, to do a stunt like this and think it's alright. It's not and it never will be.
Discriminators caused pain, death and war among races. It is absurd. What happened to world peace?
Racism happens daily and affects so many people. How can you live with yourself for causing someone so much trouble? How can you live a normal life and think everything's fine? Racism is causing death and too much pain it must be stopped once and for all. After all as said by Gandhi, "Be the change in the world YOU want to see."

Prejudice on children
Children can suffer from a climate of prejudice. Prejudice creates social and emotional tension and can lead to fear and anxiety and violence too. Prejudice can undermine the self-esteem and self-confidence of those being ridiculed and make them feel terrible, unaccepted and unworthy. When that happens, their school performance often drops or suffers. They may become depressed and socially withdrawn and childhood can become a much less happy time.
It is critical that a child is helped by dealing with diversity in a positive way. Prejudice is learned at a very young age from parents, other children and people and institutions outside of the family. By about 4 years of age, children are aware of differences among people, primarily in characteristics like appearance, language and names, but later they are aware of religious and cultural distinctions as well. To some extent, children begin to define and identify themselves through their understanding of these personal differences. This is normal.
As youngsters try to make sense of these individual distinctions, they may hear and accept simplified stereotypes about others. When that happens, they not only develop distorted views of the youngsters and adults they encounter in daily life, but they may start to deny and overlook the common, universal human elements and traits that would bring people together and live in harmony. As a result, intolerance may develop where there should be friendship.

Music
Music, one of the most beautiful or probably, the only beauty way to express feelings. Sometimes, words too. Magnificent sounds join into one creating beautiful sound to the ears. Music can even touch the heart of people and maybe animals too.
Although it can be beautiful, some of it isn't. Music can express anger, hatred, sadness, and the ill feelings of human too. It is like a remote control which is able to control our emotions. How it works, is mysterious yet wonderfully amazing.
Some genre music can people make people dazzle to it. The beat, the rhythm and the sound of the music is like a guideway for our actions. Dazzling to the enchanting waltz, feeling the vibe the music gives you, is just amazing. Feeling the music and following the vibe of it makes someone a different person. Not completely different but just, different. It is unexplainable but music changes you for that period of time.
Music works differently depending on the genre of it and how we feel it. It can be beautiful but sometimes destructive. Destructive as in brings down a person's emotion. To me, music is one of the essential of living and life.

Loneliness
Loneliness, it has to be one of the worst feelings I swear. Different people feel loneliness differently. Some feel lonely when they have nothing to do, some feel lonely when they do not have someone by their side and well, some feel lonely every time. I guess, you can't really give a definition to the word 'loneliness' because different people have different perspectives on it.
I wonder, why do we have to feel this way? Why can't we control this terrible and sickening feeling? Is like, we're fine for a period of time and suddenly, the loneliness sneaks into us and mess us up big time. We humans have so many things to do, accomplish or aim in life yet, the feeling of loneliness can come to us anytime and we just can't fully control it. Is like a demon.
Cheerful people, motivated people, happy people and positive people, do they feel this way too? They always have a smile on their face but is it a way to mask their loneliness? Even if is, I'm amazed at the fact that they are doing a wonderful job doing so. Maybe they have really found inner peace and abandon negative feelings such as loneliness.
I have so many questions, wandering around my mind, waiting to be answered and it keeps coming when I'm alone. I despite such feeling. I want to be truly happily occupied because is one of the way I can keep the ill feeling away for a period of time. It'll be nice if there was a way to completely abandon it though. Not just a remedy but, a permanent cure for it.

Limits
In the beginning, you may seem alright, strong and motivated. After awhile, the things you do because you wanted it, has started to become a heavy burden. It might be easy and all but later on, it gets more complicated, hard and challenging. You want to stop because it has been too long and you start getting tired and worn out. That is when you know, you're at your limit.
Some people, at their limit keep going on. That is how powerful their will is. How much they really want that thing. Anything can be possible once we're focused on our aim. However, it doesn't really work out well and it starts changing the person. Change in a bad way because, they've been struggling for too long until they slowly lose their own self.
The mind is a powerful thing when you fill in positive thoughts. That's how these people keep on struggling because they're motivated. But, everything has its limits. Like a car meter or the running distance of an average human. Sometimes, limits aren't meant to be broken.
No matter how much you go on and you keep falling, try harder. That's people advise to the one who is down. They don't know though, that some people have been doing this for a long time and achieve nothing but failures. No matter how many times they try to succeed. The variation of ways. The time they sacrifice. It's good if they stop though because, it might not be the thing they were meant for. Same goes for people. Sometimes, you're better off without the one who you so desire for. There are limits to everything and to everyone.

Hope
Hope, a belief that could possibly bring someone closer to what they are seeking for, or the other way around. When one hopes too high, it could possibly lead to where they never wanted to go, the end of the road. The end of the road, as in there is nowhere left to go and you didn't find what you were seeking for.
Hope could also be a wish for someone to get better, a chance to start over a new life, for someone to come back after a long period of time and it could also lead to love. However, we shouldn't expect much cause expectations lead to disappointments. That is hope, it could bring your desires or the unwanted. The unwanted could be good but not at first. Is funny how hope works.
Hope is not just a wishful thinking and the conviction that something will turn out well. It's unexpected, sneaky and odd. Hope is a strange invention, a patent of the heart and mind in unremitting action.
