Last night was very strange for me. I try to sleep but my eyes not closing. Time was around 2 00 am and everything was silent but inside my mind too much noise. I was thinking many things about life about people about this world. I dont know why but suddenly I start questioning humanity itself.
I was laying on my bed and scrolling my phone. First I see some happy posts people smiling enjoying food traveling laughing with friends. It look so perfect like life is very beautiful. But then after some minutes I see another side. News of fights injustice poor people suffering someone crying for help but nobody listening. That moment I feel something heavy in my chest.
Why this world is like this. Why same humans can be so kind and also so cruel.
I remember one small incident from my day. In morning I saw a man asking for help near market. Many people pass from him but nobody stop. Some even look at him like he is invisible. At that time I also just walk away. I was busy or maybe I was just ignoring like others. But at night that scene come again in my mind. And I feel guilty.
We always say humanity is alive but is it really.
I think we become too busy in our own life. We care about our problems our money our happiness. But when someone else is in pain we just scroll just ignore just move forward. Like it is not our problem. Maybe this is normal now but it should not be normal.
Another thing I notice is people become very fake. On social media everyone show perfect life. Perfect face perfect moments. But inside maybe they are broken. Or maybe they hide truth from others. I dont say everyone is fake but many people are not real anymore. And this also make me question things.
At night when there is no noise truth comes in mind more clearly.
I was thinking what is humanity actually. Is it just a word we use to feel good. Or it is something real we practice. Because if humanity was strong then why so much pain in world. Why so many people alone. Why someone cry and nobody hear.
I am not saying I am perfect. I am also same like others. I ignore things I stay silent I dont help always. But maybe that is the problem. Everyone think same way. Everyone think someone else will help. But no one actually do.
That sleepless night made me realize one thing. Humanity is not dead but it is weak. Very weak. And it become weak because of us.
We wait for big change big heroes big actions. But maybe humanity is in small things. Like stopping for someone like listening someone like helping even when it is not your duty. Small actions can make big difference. But we dont do them.
Time was going 3 00 am 4 00 am still I was awake. My mind was full of questions but no clear answers. Maybe there is no simple answer. Maybe humanity is something we all building together and also destroying together.
Before sleeping I decided one small thing. I cannot change whole world but I can change myself little bit. Next time when I see someone in need I will not ignore so easily. Maybe I will help or at least try. Because if I dont change then I have no right to question humanity.
Finally near morning my eyes become heavy. But my thoughts still there somewhere. That night was not just sleepless it was a mirror. It show me reality not the filtered one.
And maybe just maybe humanity is still alive but it is waiting for us to wake up.
