Humanity

Where has all the humanity gone? Why is the world collapsing in on itself? In the fast pace of bigger, faster, better, gimme, gimme, gimme, we have lost our way. There are those that abuse the system, have evil intentions, and seem undeserving of empathy and compassion. But, the honest truth is that we are all that person on any given day, in certain situations. I work with drug addicts, societies imagined scum of the earth, but I am here to tell you that I have found more heart, more promise, and more potential for triumph in my patients than in any outside arena. I hope that one day the world will understand that they will be judged the way they judge and that often the best things in life aren't things, but life itself.
