Beyond Borders


           Certain things make an impact on us. Certain things make all the difference. Certain people make the world a better place to live in. Certain demons destroy it all. We all have a level of conscience and that is what has helped our civilization from time immemorial to either create or destroy the unwanted. We, after all, are the most intelligent species on Earth and the sole rulers of the planet. 

           The other day there was an article by one of the most controversial writers of our times. It mentioned about the existence of borders. We have created differences and made ourselves unique. We definitely don't allow another inferior to intervene in our home affairs. We cannot cross a border because the land beyond that mark is not ours. And at the end of the day, it is obvious to do so because we cannot let our motherlands from being exploited by some stranger. Yes, the writer was wrong in stating that we human beings have created borders and can live in harmony.

           She mentions about animals which can cross international borders without being shot by a man guarding those borders and how the consequences for another man crossing the same would be otherwise. Definitely, she was wrong because as it is already mentioned that we cannot allow some intruder to intervene in my own home affairs. Animals, after all, are a low breed being far away from challenging the intellect of man and shouldn't be considered as an example for this scenario. She is definitely wrong.

           There came a post regarding a kid from Syria wounded and covered with dust and blood. Uniqueness has run across that land. Here we are full of terror that tomorrow some acquaintance will suffer the terror that haunts our civilized world. A covered face might just come up with it's own unique ideologies and put a bullet inside them. A stranger might just come strangled and defy the nature of humanity and rob away one of our sisters. The writer of this piece fears being robbed when he returns home at 10 in the night by some unknown figure. Every being is terrorized.

           We are all haunted yet boast about our uniqueness. We are afraid of tomorrow and devasted about the reality yet we can't but wait for destiny to describe our fate. We are the civilization with brains to make the difference and it is a dire reality that we have made the difference. The controversial writer, was after all, wrong in all aspects because she could never understand the importance of being unique and how that simple uniqueness can make the world a better place to live in.
