Let's take a moment to think about "now." The world is in a pretty bad place. No doubt about that. But let's think of this in a different perspective. For starters, we are alive. We also were born with two working eyes (though mine don’t work that well), we are born with working ears, we can talk, we can walk, we can breathe, we can feel, we can love. Many people can’t do those things. We sometimes wish for the latest phone, or the newest shoes, or the trending clothes. But there are some in this world who wake up and say, I wish I could see, I wish I could hear the voice of my parents, I hope my mom can eat today, I wish I could get out of bed, I wish my family was whole…

Here in this picture we see that the world is our home. There was one time this world was perfect. Grass everywhere, and the circle of life was doing its job. But one day, humans were made. How? No one knows. And no matter what inventions they made, how many ideas were born, all they did was destroy the world. We call ourselves an intelligent species, but we kill not just our home, our Earth, but the home of every single animal and plant alive. We need to understand that enough is enough. Do I actually have a way to solve this? At the moment, no, but spreading awareness doesn’t hurt. So, like I said in the drawing:

"Step out of the Darkness and go to the Light."
