In a bubble?

At times it startles me how many people choose to live in their bubble.

Sleeping in bed with the aggressors because within' this bubble, they don't have to seek deeper,think deeper..No digging through the dirt, no exposing of the bones, stories told and untold. Its much easier to accept the mold,the status quo versus using one's mind, using one's voice and actions for Truth, love and humanity. God forbid they cross the borders they set up around themselves and see the Truth that is. That on the other side of the line are the many beautiful souls that deserve to live just as much as you & I. Souls that believe in humanity,despite their injustice. 

God forbid..for people to stop and look in the mirror and ask themselves if their views of love,compassion and humanity are within' a box? How much hate do they actually hold? Whether they are aware of it or not their reasoning comes with the feeling of superiority over others.  Are they putting limits to God's love over all His creation? How can they claim themselves more worthy of His Grace? This belief in of itself is problematic. When you hear someone spreading fear,hate,prejudice, self righteousness in their logic and with it, legitimizing this insidious way of behaving… Ask yourself why??? For some, love for humanity is easier in concept than actual practice... Because it means looking in the mirror and facing the not so pretty truth. We can not limit Love and Truth, But we can limit ourselves & our contribution to a peaceful society.

"O mankind! Lo! We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah, is the best in conduct. Lo! Allah is Knower, Aware." Surah al-Hujurat 49:13 (male & female/adam & eve)
