Serial killers. Mass murders. Insane Cults. School shootings. Child predators.
Corrupt governments. Unstoppable plagues. Murder suicides. Sex crimes. Gang violence.
Thrill kills. Terrorist acts. Postal rampages. Suicide bombers.
The world is out of control.
There's no way to reverse what's happened to society.
People are not just numb to violence anymore, we crave it.
It's forced into our lives in every possible way.
People look for answers to what's gone wrong with society,
blaming music, movies, video games, anything and everything to try to
explain away the obvious: We're armed, pissed, and horny for evil.
We're all thrown into this life without a choice.
I never asked for this life, yet those that have control over
our lives force their beliefs down our throat via the TV,
radio, news papers, and now even the world wide web.
They will tell you everything you want to hear, except the truth.

Thank you!

Does anyone one else wonder if they were put on earth for a reason. Because I feel like if I die tomorrow, nothing will have changed, I serve no purpose whatsoever. It's very perplexing.

In spite of these restrictions, all the ladies used to gather near the village well and discuss only Lord Krishna. Then, a new bride of one of the houses arrived in the village. Her name was Suguna. She had heard a lot about the divine leelas (sports, plays) of Lord Krishna. She developed a deep desire to have the darshan (sight) of Krishna, somehow. She did not reveal her desire to her husband or her mother-in-law. She kept it as a tightly guarded secret within herself. However, it is impossible to conceal the truth. The entire creation has originated from truth:

The creation emerges from truth and merges into truth.
Is there a place in the cosmos where truth does not exist?
Visualise this pure and unsullied truth.

In spite of her keeping her desire as a closely guarded secret, it became known to all.

As always, the Q is what could be the inner meaning behind the lines?

you may c the prev. Q also

There once was a kingdom ruled over by a fair and righteous king. One day, an evil witch descended upon the well from which the people drank, and poisoned the water. The very next day everyone but the righteous king drank the poisoned water. And they all went insane. All but the king that is. For several days after, the people wondered aloud, "What happened to our king," they shouted in the streets, "Has he gone insane?" So the king went and drank from the poisoned water, and everything was well again.

I’m sure you know the story about the race between the rabbit and the turtle, where the cocky rabbit took a nap after confirming he was well ahead and woke up only to see the diligent turtle cross the finish line first and win the race.
