Entry: Cruelty Wednesday, July 23, 2008



It was a Monday, July 21, 2008
I witnessed human cruelty.
At least that's how I saw it.

A beggar was asking for food.
From someone who was having a sandwich at the other end of the long table.
He shooed the beggar...asking to be left alone.

The beggar was insistent...just asking for crumbs...leftover...
But he can only stare as the crumbs were being thrown away.

How could anyone be so cruel? How much would he have lost if he gave a piece of his bread? or, crumbs???
And what would anyone have gained, in reiterating to a beggar that in fact, he can only beg?

How cruel can anyone get?

i always pity the beggars, because in my mind, they had no other choice but to ask for something that they do not have...but looking at the harsh truth, there are BEGGARS who PRETEND that they do not have, so that people will pity them and spare them some mercy...like the stories about the igorots who roam the streets on christmas holidays...i hope the cruelty that you saw was GENUINE, and not just a fragment of your illussions..i hope that the beggar is not sum1 pretending to have nothing but in fact has everything in life...i hope you give justice to your blog, give peace to people who are striving to make everything better..be fair to the people in you life...think about other people's happiness, not just your OWN happiness..
