Just when I thought this year couldn't get any worse, I woke up to this disheartening act of some hooligan- killing a pregnant elephant! You must be wondering why is this bothering me, while the entire world is mourning on irreparable loses. Sadly this is something we brought it on ourselves. People killing people, nature taking a harsh course, a pandemic which will remind us how it felt to be trapped, and a reminder of how insignificant our needs are when the world is inevitably falling apart. And amidst all these problems, I see the ones who are suffering for particularly no fault of their own are the true habitants of the earth- the flora and fauna which deserves the entire world.
We as humans are so ignorant of the fact that we simply co-exist. It's not entirely our home. We are a part of it- similarly how the animals, vegetation, other living organisms are a part of it. Isn't it ironic? what we have done to ourselves and this wonderful planet of ours? And we talk about colonizing Mars! I wonder what it feels to those who are watching our world in this chaos, how are they ever gonna balance our deeds? or is this all some variable fitting for an inevitable end? We always desire to own what we like- we tame animals for entertainment, lock them up for experiments, or simply kill them just for fun. Where are you gonna go? for killing someone who meant no harm to you? How are you going to live with it? People who hurt animals have a special place in hell!*
I wonder what she must have had felt when she knew she was betrayed. "Was it wrong to trust them or was it my own fault to see the humanity in them?" One thing we must not forget, we are nothing but tiny spectacles of dust- we will wither away, but we can simply co-exist. It took one asteroid to make the dinosaurs go extinct, do you think you'd ever survive with what we are doing to this planet?
Think upon it, this isn't some instigating article, but nominal reflections on the current situation. Feel free to discuss and acknowledge what needs to be done.
