We could be

We could be a race of equality, friendship and love.
We could be a race of compassion, empathy and feeling.
We could be a race of multicultural peace.
But we choose to be a race of division, hate, greed, power and war.
We choose to hide our failure behind skin colour and disagreement of beliefs! 
We choose to think that we are always right. 
We choose to make a business out of war and death.
History proves and will prove for us that humanity is an evil, self-destructive and barbaric species.
