apathetic faith in humanity

a topic which had been hovering for quite a while on my mind
which i have started discussing with a couple of friends

some have expressed some sort of relation to the topic
while others kept a neutral ground towards it
expressing a more open end statement towards it

but it remains a topic which is up to this day
agonizes me at some level 
and keeps me wondering

every single time i get into a certain situation
with certain people

you are reminded by that one thing
that people have lost their humanity in life
because of the things that they do !

big example that happened from my life
which i gladly would love to share them to you all
for you to learn how much people have lost their humanity
in this day and age 

how you kindly (and unfortunately knowing that its a naive move to make) 
help someone out at their time of need 
and willingly give to them 
knowing that the goodness that you do will come around
and that you know (although it is tell you its wrong)
that they will help you back

of course you know what the outcome is going to be
the minute you get into trouble
they will surely bail out on you
and will leave you to be on your own 

its situation like those 
that make you lose your faith in humanity 

even thought you still hang on to that small gleaming light of hope
that you might be helped out

but it is an unfortunate discovery
that you have when you are faced with the reality
that when you are in trouble
you will have to face it all alone !

as much as it is a sad discovery
people have that tendency of 
forgetting their humanity 
when it comes to situations like these

when problems arises and people bail out

it reminds me personally of a quote
which i probably mentioned in a previous article
for mother Theresa 
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.  Do good anyway


that may be one point 
but another point still continues on to be a main problem
which is people will keep on doing what they did in the first place
which is bail out even though they remember you helped them some time in the past !

it is as if we are forced to not help out because we know what the repercussions are

the unfortunate lesson which comes up from this article
as much as i want to sound optimistic 
(yet it keeps on being rather blind optimism)

keep a more cautious helping hand out !

have faith that there still is some sort of humanity left
with people
yet don't cling on to that hope !

knowing how people are in this day and age

as though this may sound so logical 
it is a hard lesson 
for a blindly optimistic person 
like myself
and i know that there are blindly optimistic people out there too !

before they would get into any fickle issues like these
remember that one main lesson !
