The Mind of Mankind

Where are God's people, who used to be 
the ones with the kind smiles on their faces, 
nice to see? Those who used to be found in 
many religious places--they would talk of God 
all the time. Modestly dressed, with kindly gazes. 
 
They would wake up people to a higher 
understanding, letting them know life was 
not so demanding. What happened to those 
who loved God everyday? Why have so many 
fallen away? 

What happened to those who spread love for 
humanity? What happened to the God of our 
reality? Where did all the smiles go that were 
seen on children's faces where they played safely 
in non-harmful places? 

What happened to Mother Nature and the 
respect for all her gifts? Why has so much 
goodness been done away with? How did 
everything become so undone? It's still the 
same world, the same place, the same 
morning sun. 

What has been done to change the mind of mankind 
to where he doesn't recognize the warning signs? 
What kind of world is this leading us to what should 
have been before it all comes true? 

Where is the love that we all have inside? Why do we 
feel like it's something that we should hide? Why are 
the good being blamed for what the bad? Why have 
we forgotten about the things that make God sad? 

These questions are present today--evidence that 
humanity has gone the wrong way. What can we do 
to turn it all around before we all end up under solid 
ground? The Earth moves as it has always done; it 
shines on all not one . Each day is fresh, and each day
 is new. It should also be the same  for me and you.
