SHEEP PEOPLE

SHEEPLE
Who or what are sheeple?
Are they just people who don’t know the difference between left and right?
Or are they just people who instinctively follow others who lead, regardless of direction, just following blindly.
Or do they know that their path is not always rosy and just sometimes hope for things to change for the better? (faith)
I remember when I became aware of all these questions.
Who is right who is wrong. What is truth and what is a lie…
Its been a long time now, a long time and I still don’t know the answers. I remember when I first became aware of my religious upbringing..
Aware of a God that we need to be thankful of …
Thank you God …
A God of a particular religion, a God that only loved a certain group.
A God that openly expressed his hate for those that did not follow. Is this my God, my saviour, who destroys those that question or doubt.
I don’t know why, but I’m not like that. I cannot hate you for stealing my loved ones, I cannot hate you for leaving me all alone when I needed someone the most. I don’t question you because I myself don’t have the knowledge to know the difference or better.
I don’t understand governments or politics. I don’t know if you are trying to help me or use me.
But when I ask you to help and be there when things look dark and lonely, completely hopeless.
Just be there…. Just be my friend. Hold my hand. Smile to encourage me.
Don’t say anything … Don’t lie to me…. Don’t make any promises….
Just be there.
I don’t care much for politics or religion. I don’t understand how it works in any way. What I do know is how I feel, whether it be through knowledge, education or guidance. Maybe its just instinctively. But that is what I know.
I cry when someone dies, I am happy when there’s a need to be….
And I can hope. I hope that we will find answers, peace and unity amongst all.
Not lies, not fear, not insecurities . But peace.
To my brother, I hope you have found yours.
