#Repair humanity - Greed

Greed

In the caverns of desire, where shadows dance, 
Greed slithers, silent and insatiable.
Its eyes, like polished coins, glint with hunger,
Counting fortunes yet to be amassed. 

It craves more than the sun's golden rays, 
More than the moon's silver whispers.
Its appetite knows no bounds,
Devouring hearts, leaving barren lands. 

Greed wears a cloak of false abundance, 
Promising riches but delivering emptiness.
It hoards treasures, stacking them high,
Yet its soul remains a beggar, forever wanting.

Beware the allure of its gilded promises, 
For in the pursuit of excess, we lose our essence.
Let compassion be our currency, 
And generosity our legacy. 

For true wealth lies not in what we amass,
But in the kindness, we scatter like seeds, 
Blooming into gardens of empathy, 
Where greed withers, defeated by love.

 Ahoi human beings!

#Repair humanity - Guiding lost souls back to the harbor of humanity

Guiding lost souls back to the harbor of humanity —what a profound and poetic mission! Imagine a world where compassion and empathy are our guiding stars, where we extend a hand to those adrift in the tempest of life. Let me weave a tale of hope and redemption, a beacon for those who seek solace in the storm. The Lighthouse Keeper In a secluded cove, where cliffs met the restless sea, stood an ancient lighthouse. Its weathered stones whispered tales of shipwrecks and lost dreams. The keeper, an old man with eyes like the ocean, tended the flame that pierced the darkness. He had seen it all—the broken-hearted lovers, the weary sailors, the wanderers seeking refuge. Each night, he climbed the spiralling stairs, his lantern casting shadows on the walls. His duty was simple: guide lost souls back to safety. One stormy eve, a young woman stumbled ashore. Her eyes held storms of their own—a tempest of grief and regret. She had lost her way, drifting far from the harbor of hop...

#Repair humanity - Arjun’s story

By
Once upon a time, in a bustling city filled with the cacophony of daily life, there lived a man named Arjun. He was known throughout the neighbourhood for his kind heart and generous spirit. Arjun wasn’t wealthy, nor was he powerful, but he possessed a wealth of compassion that made him richer than most. Every morning, Arjun would wake up before dawn and prepare sandwiches with what little he had. As the city slowly stirred awake, he would set out with his basket, walking the same route every day. His first stop was always the old, worn bench near the bus station, where an elderly homeless man slept. Without fail, Arjun would leave a sandwich and a cup of hot tea next to him, ensuring the man would have something warm to start his day. As he continued his walk, Arjun greeted everyone with a smile, sharing kind words and lending an ear to those who needed it. He knew everyone by name—the street vendors, the office workers rushing by the children on their way to school. To each, he o...

  Blood makes you related, but loyalty makes you family.   This phrase suggests that sometimes, people who are not related to us by blood or marriage can become like family through shared experiences and emotional bonds. Conversely, there are relatives by blood who may feel like strangers due to lack of connection or understanding.   This concept is reflected in various cultural practices around the world.  For instance, it’s not uncommon for close family friends to be referred to as “Aunt” or “Uncle” as a sign of respect and affection, even though they are not blood relatives . This honorary title signifies their importance in our lives and the roles they play that are similar or better than to those of actual relatives. Moreover, the idea that we can sometimes be kinder to strangers than to our loved ones is a psychological phenomenon that has been observed and discussed.  It’s suggested that our tolerance for the negative qualities of those we spend...
