New York

by Humans of New York 

…no we can’t and that’s the gospel. The state of our world today is heartbreaking. It’s so bad that when this photograph was posted some people chose to ignore the point and opted to argue about the fact that the word ‘breathe’ was  written incorrectly.

“I wonder why we are so desperate to be different from others. It seems to be cute to comment as loud as possible on how different or strange or unique one is.
Sure, we’re all unique in our own way but the fact is we are more alike than we’re ever willing to admit out loud.”

Until..

“Until you throw you sword away, you’ll not become a shield; Until you lay your crown aside you’ll not be fit to lead”

– Hakim Sanai: The Walled Garden of Truth
