There is a place we dare not go: a place that springs up feelings of fear and discomfort. It’s easier just to turn our heads and look the other way. However, this place of fear and hurt is the same place many others are confined to. They can’t escape the grip of misfortune just as they cannot let their thoughts of hope escape them. When they turn and look away, they see all they don’t have, but desperately need. When we turn and look away, we see all we’re grateful for and all we have yet to desire. It’s easier to ignore it; it’s easier to pretend this rising issue plaguing America is immaterial, but it’s right to help. It’s up to us, the more fortunate, to do what is necessary to aid our ailing social class. We must let go of our inhibitions and our restraints. We have to forget the thoughts and ideas of our peers and do what is right. It is our obligation to be the source of hope they look to. The next time you turn your head, don’t look to the tangible, but look inside your heart, and do what you know you should. It will soon become a source of inner peace and satisfaction for you and a source of hope, help, and relief for those who truly need it. |
