Behind the Scenes of Life

This post is just a written piece that I thought of from the top of my head. This piece is based on the perspectives of 3 different individuals who share something in common.

Let us start with Christian Brown. Christian is an average man working as an accountant. He makes a steady income and lives a somewhat decent life. Now, you may think that life is just all peaches and cream for him but instead, it has many flaws. His wife left him and took their 3 children because he was more devoted to his job rather than his family. He spends hours and hours in his office doing taxes and other paperwork without any resting time. Loneliness and frustration begins to kill him inside as life just takes a downturn for him. At this point he does not know what to do. Is it his job that's stressing him out or the break-up of his family? Who knows, it could be both. Should he give up his job and patch things up with his wife or should he just lie down and die?

Now, we move on to Isis Green. Isis is a young woman who comes from a middle-class family. She's currently unemployed and makes no use of her life whatsoever. All she does is party, drink, smoke and engages in "late night activities". Life is whatever to her, she dropped out of school and her relationship with her parents is not so great. She needs some motivation, perhaps a guardian angel who can pull her out from her troubles. But it all comes down to her. It's either she makes an effort to put her life back together or she can continue digging up a deeper hole for herself. The choice is hers.

Last, but not least, is Rolland Smith. Rolland was an honor student who threw away his ambitions and traded his books for weaponry. Instead of becoming a somebody, he's now a nobody. He exposed himself to a life of crime, violence, and gang-related acts. It's not too late for him to turn his life around because he's young; but the temptation of the outside world begins to swallow him whole. As bad as life unravels itself, he must fight through the obstacles to find that person he once was. I believe everyone has some good in them, it just takes alot of initiative to find that inner self. Most of the time it can be quite difficult because there's always something that prevents an individual from reaching that goal. A person who lives off drugs and alcohol wants to give it up, but addiction as him/her weak, therefore making it extremely complicated to hit that changing point. As for Rolland, he's got lots to learn and a future head of him. The first step is to give up and weed out the undesirable lifestyle he has and start fresh. From there, he knows what to do. All is in his hands.

A mind is a terrible thing to waste and dignity is a terrible thing to lose. Sometimes in life you have to put up with a lot to get by, build your ego to stay strong, cut out the people and things that possess no value to you, humble yourself to live pure, know what it's like to lose first before you win, seize as much opportunities to make it to the top, and to walk the lone path of independence to avoid disappointment.......

A Child's Cry

A third world country is where it all begins. This country houses thousands of residents. The main focus is set on a fully complete family. This family lives an extremely poor life in a decaying shack with no money in their pockets. One day the father dies and the mother is now left with the children. She is unable to take care of them all by herself. She tries her hardest to accomplish the task but fails. Despite her failure, she makes every endeavor to stand tall and strong. Without warning, she is taken away and is now one with a casket. She rests side by side with her deceased husband; while pleading to God from her grave to watch her beloved children. Her children are now forced to manage on their own.

 The three offspring wander the sandy roads seeking help so they can get back on their feet. Their calls are being ignored by the outside world, which is their only source. Nobody seems to care for these children. Not even a single person with enough decency can come to their rescue. These children have no choice but to sleep on the filthy streets. They have no parents, no food, no shelter, or anyone who will take them in as their own. These children lie there motionless as they are showered with rain. Their bodies are soaked with water and their faces are soaked in tears. They cry for help but nobody wants to play the "guardian angel".

Who will help them? Who will come to their aid? Who will reach out and lift them up from exile? People expect so much in life that they refuse to help others who are in need. Remember that we are what keeps this world living on. Destroy one person, and we destroy all. Eventually, a door will open up for these unfortunate children. One day, someone will find them, love them, and cherish them. As for the people who consist of selfishness and greed; may they get more than what they bargained for.
