When did the world start to go wrong? Or has it always been wrong and I never noticed?
They teach right and wrong in school, or at least they used to when I went. My parents never really taught me what was right or wrong, but they let me know through trial and error. There were rules. So why is it that the world is not getting better? Why can we always turn something good into something bad?
Social media, for instance, was supposed to be good, supposed to connect people, bring people together. And while it might still do that, it turned out that it gave origin to a lot of mental problems, stalking issues and scamming incidents.

What sparked this is the North Korea crisis, which I've been following on and off. It makes no sense that after the NPT treaty the nuclear weapons were not all destroyed. It takes only one step to go over the ledge. Why has it come to this? We really do have short memory, don't we? Do we need another movie like Dunkirk to remind us of what the Effff happened in WWII?! TWO nukes, TWO! landed. Do we need another reminder after only 50 years or so passed? I've heard opinions that an all out war is not likely. I surely hope they are right.
When we elect mad men to be our leaders and representatives and stick to them and follow them, we can only hope that whatever madness they have will lead us to a better place. hope, being the key word.
