Betrayal

Betrayal is the hardest thing to understand. Hollywood paints it as a simple act due to jealousy or greed. But it is the betrayal, that doesnt fall under those criteria that is the hardest to understand.

Why would someone betray their best friend? Why would a husband cheat on his wife? Why would a parent abandon their child? What part of human nature causes people to act that way? When did loyalty and love become trivia playthings of the brutish natured people of the world?

I believe its society focus on the individual. It causes people to become delusional and self- centered. All the ideals that once founded this country have fluttered away as we have evolved. In pop culture today it is all about living large. All about having fun. Screw everyone else, you are the most important.

Thats not how I was raised. I was raised to believe that helping others is what everyone should want to be doing. That is an act essential to human co-existence. But the world has seemed to have forgotten this. I can only pray that everything turns out alright.
