the message coming through this time is humility. humility: the quality or condition of being humble; modest opinion or estimate of one's own importance, rank, etc.
no, you aren't better then the people u employ. i aint any better then my junkie neighbor. and we sure aint better then those out there who go to sleep hungry and wake up drinking the dirtiest water you could ever imagine.
For they did not choose the way they live.
As we did not choose ours.
But we got the lucky break.
We are not asked to step into their shoes. For a life of hardship, suffering
and poverty is not wished on anyone at all.
They didn't ask for it.
It would be impossible to comprehend what another persons situation in life is.
Be it your neighbour, or the child on the other side of the world who sleeps hungry tonight and u will never get to see.
However what we are compelled to do is to show some compassion. Lend a hand.
Be humbled, for if we were them wouldn't we like some help, in a lifes situation where it seem like tomorrow would be another struggle for survival.
Be humbled, for His love is a love that everyone deserves.

Optimus Prime knows best
Recently i went to watch the much anticipated Transformers the Movie Sequel, The Revenge of The Fallen. And oh yeah, it was a kick ass movie.
Great movie, full of action.
But there was one part in the movie, which struck me.
Well yes besides the awesome fight scenes and the outrageous cgi effects.
It was when Optimus Prime, the Leader of the Autobots, who are the good guy robots, said to the humans:
" We have seen YOUR capacity for destruction. "
Ok. Let me explain. Some suit from the white house wanted the robots to share their alien, superadvance technology with the military to fight the baddies.
Optimus Prime knew better then that.
He knew our capacity for destruction.
Oh this robot ain't just buff and cool. He's wise as well.(And transforms)
For centuries, Men have been inflicting self damage and destruction.
Pillaging the earth of her resources
Waging war on each other
Spreading diseases
Killing off animals
Killing each other
Killing ourselves.
When will it stop?
When will we learn.
When do we halt our capacity for self destruction?
Do we really need a huge talking robot to tell us that?
