“Parents and community need to pay close attention for early
signs of depression among our young people, particularly in this depressing
times” - Atiku reacts to high rate of suicide.
Atiku made a good point here and I must commend it but
something is gradually eating up our society and this trend will keep
escalating because nobody is paying attention to the cause.
What is the cause? The cause looks like it is not the cause
but that is simply the cause. Our society is speedily loosing sense of
humanity. There is no balance. People are losing faith in our essence as a
being. What we see everyday keeps telling us that life has no meaning.
It is not necessarily poverty that is causing this high rate
of suicide but people are becoming extremely wicked and evil. What sacred is
human life when you see a dead dog being struck by a speedy vehicle on the road
but on passing about six poles on the same road, you see dead human body that
you can’t categorically say what led to his death by the road side.
The other time I saw a teenage white guy raping
about two year
old male toddler through the anus. It was indeed an awful sight for me.
I will pause here because they are many. People should turn
back and embrace humanity. Our essence of existence. If I am suffering in Nigeria
and you are enjoying in America, one day the cause of my suffering here will
flow down to America like the river…it is a matter of time.
If people are committing suicide and you feel you are not
concerned, someday your home will be filled with agony…evil is highly
contagious.
Together we can save the sinking humanity. Indeed humanity is
sinking but once you are not directly affected, you think all is well.
Feel the pains of your
fellow man. Don’t wait for him/her to approach you before you can see the agony
he/she is passing through. Reach out to people. Pay your Tithe also
in the life of people out there. That little help is a miracle
to that man in your neighborhood.
God doesn’t come from heaven to perform miracles.
Our sympathetic acts are simply that miracle.
