WHAT HAVE WE BECOME?

             In this day and age,with computers,world wide access to each other,cellphones,to impulsively reach out and touch each other, I would have expected it to be a much more diverse,predjudice free world.The knowledge that is available to each and everyone of us at any given time to better educate us as a country,a community,-and more importantly as an individual, is amazing!---YET,here we are in a " ME" world.            Sure,we seem to come together in a major tradgedy to help,send money BUT,as soon as that is past news...we go back to being critical,degrading,impatient ,pressurized and skeptical human beings.Most,DON'T even know their neighbor---Don"t want to know their neighbor.YET,when you turn on t.v-you hear someone saying-"WE"RE A TIGHT KNIT COMMUNITY--WE DON'T KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED HERE" (usually,after a shooting or similar circumstance)I often wondered WHO EXACTLY was tight knit?Things DON'T happen JUST BECAUSE! I believe all things happen for a reason--good or bad,we're supposed to learn from them---------we,as a society don't learn very well.After all,If you read the news ,WE are MAD AS HELL,WE have to make allowances for disabled human beings.HOW about our brave soldiers who come back in a wheel-chair? ALOT of you's didn't think about that when you's were waving the american flag! THEY LEFT AS AMERICANS,BUT NOW ACCORDING TO SOME--PEOPLE IN WHEELCHAIRS ARE in a different class BECAUSE OF THE "SPECIAL" VEHICLES,PUBLIC RAMPS they require to make the world accessible to them.My Father is in a wheelchair..he use to be the most people friendly person in the world and out and about.Now,he does'nt go out very much,only to doctor and such--I shop for him.Its NOT because he's in the wheelchair,it's because of the way he's made to feel for being in that chair!...Lately though,the big story is the little girl with the severe peanut allergy,whose parents sent her to school.I would'nt think kids having to wash hands more and obstaining from peanut products while at school would be such a big deal.The parents especially do though.Like my Dad,the consenses is,she should stay home so their kids can have a normal life. TO THOSE KINDS OF PEOPLE,I SAY " IGNORANCE AND INTOLERANCE IS ALIVE AND WELL IN YOU'S AND YOU'S ARE DOING A FINE JOB GROOMING THE NEXT GENERATION"               what have we become?..........nothing......nothing different than what was already here festering from the dark ages.
