Ashamed

A million people locked in a room of ‘normality.’ They never look at each other, either directly or indirectly, in the eye. A 4 year old child enters their room and simply says: ‘I m sorry mummy’ (Without self-awareness, judgement or pride) A million people laugh out so loud they have tears in their eyes. They all exit the room with wry smiles on their faces as their selfish-pride-filled teardrops, drown the naive child. They re-enter the room and resuscitate the child but not until his fervent, now cynical eyes reveal he’s grown up enough to be as bitter, resentful and unforgiving as they’ve so ignorantly and irrationally become. He committed suicide. They continue to be nourished by their arrogance and pride!
