TWO BITTER DISEASES
Humanity is experiencing a great crisis. Rich-poor, beautiful-ugly, healthy-sick, prestigious-non-prestigious people, it doesn't matter. People are struggling with an inexplicable dissatisfaction even in today's world. In the midst of their happiest moments or afterwards, an inexplicable inner distress does not leave them alone. Their joys disappear for no reason. Worries, worries... Bad possibilities often surround their entire existence.
There are two things missing in modern humans to an extreme extent.
The first one is sincerity... Humanity needs sincerity.
The other one is 'understanding'... People cannot understand each other. This is a great disease of our age.
Around humanity, there is a selfish army that puts themselves in great anxieties. People long for someone who truly cares about them. They make great efforts to protect themselves and carry the fear of being harmed at any moment. Imagine your own life for a moment. Isn't it like this? I like documentaries. Animals catch their prey, hold it under their claws, and kill it. Then they make a move. A move made even by the strongest: Environmental control... They turn their heads from side to side. They investigate the surrounding conditions to see if there is a possibility of an attack. I liken today's collective lifestyle to this. People, unfortunately, carry the fear of possible harm at any moment. Because it often comes. It can be in every layer of society. But, "We are humans. How can this be possible!" you ask yourself... Unfortunately, this is the reality, it happens.
CAN WE ENDURE THIS?
Homes are filled with nerve drugs, therapists are flooded with clients. Books preaching about self-confidence, under the guise of influencing people, top the bestsellers list. Humanity is insecure and deprived of real love, so it seeks solutions in such books or videos. But look at the solutions that are said or written, they are not always practical. If they were, the whole world would be happy. Crime rates would decrease. People would easily empathize. Where is it? Moreover, there is another truth. Those who say or write these things do it for their own professional success. Here is another insincerity. In short, these things do not provide satisfactory results. In fact, a person who seeks a bit of peace is overwhelmed by the books read and the numerous videos watched. They get confused about what to do.
WHAT IS INSIDE US?
Humanity thinks that it will find peace by trying such solutions. But life often becomes so difficult that things get even more complicated after a while. Because people in the society where they will apply these solutions often exhibit behaviors that are so selfish that the things they have learned quickly dissipate like soap bubbles. What remains is a deep sense of emptiness. This situation leads to even greater destructions. The loss of trust that fills nearly 24 hours of a person's life, the inability to cope with what happens in private and social life, and the deep fears experienced envelops them with all their beings. And they ask themselves, "What is inside me? How will I be happy?.."
IS THERE NO ONE TO TRUST?
A person who reaches this state of mind truly experiences a great trauma. The feeling of not knowing what to do and the absence of a friend to trust... Followed by a deep darkness of loneliness. And then, intense loneliness like a dark cloud. Especially if a sudden harm done by someone you once trusted deepens this dark life even more.
NOSTALGIA
People perhaps long for their childhood for this reason. Although it is called nostalgia, be careful not to let this longing become the 'trust' itself. After all, nothing can easily ruin the joy of a child playing games with friends. The child is not full of worries. They experience a smooth happiness. Perhaps what we call nostalgia is these sparkling feelings and emotions far from danger.
DOES THE WORLD GET DIRTY AS WE GROW?
No, no... The world was already dirty. We just realize it as we grow up. As we grow up, with school and work life, we join the groups of people who pollute their surroundings with their selfishness. We have to join... And in this environment where strong, spoiled, self-centered, or indifferent individuals do whatever they want while being afraid of someone suddenly harming us. How can a person be peaceful with the feeling of going into a fit of who did it every moment? How can one cope with the stress of having their feet slipped at work anytime? Human feelings are inevitably hurt. Or if a person who achieves something by working hard is not given this right by a cruel employer, or is stolen by a thief on the road without mercy, how does this person feel? If television, press, and the internet are filled with such news, how can a society be peaceful?
MORE THAN ANTS IN NUMBER
Not only that. What would you feel when you learned about the tricks and deceptions your friend, whom you approached with clean feelings, turned behind your back? How can your broken heart, shaken emotions be repaired? If the number of such people exceeds the density in an anthill, who will you trust after these blows you received? How can a person live their life in peace without trusting anyone? If you pay attention, we only gave examples from a few sections of life. It is not difficult to find other examples in the society you live in.
WHY ARE THESE HAPPENING
This is the main topic of this article. It appeals to everyone, whether Christian, Jewish, Atheist, Deist, Buddhist, etc. In this article, I will reveal the reasons for these. Those who are not prejudiced will learn the reason. The truths are true. They are true even if they are not seen. A hundred years ago, the existence of ultraviolet rays was not known. Today, it is known. Not knowing or not seeing its existence does not erase the existence of ultraviolet rays. This is a fact. Therefore, the truth I will write here may not be accepted due to religious intolerance or disbelief. But that doesn't change this truth. Even if someone turns their back on it, some people who experience the pain of what is happening in this dark age with all their cells will benefit. Because a person should be happy. They should have a feeling of satisfaction in their hearts. I believe that the storm raging inside a person does not occur in the Pacific. Compare your inner world to an 'ocean', and your attitudes and behaviors to a 'boat'. If there is a storm in the ocean, how can the boat stay upright... That's how humanity tries to navigate this ocean, swaying. It seeks happiness. But it doesn't know its path.
MOVING FORWARD TOGETHER
How will this storm engulfing humanity calm down? How will a person be happy? Some claim to show the way. But it doesn't work. In this article, I set out on this path to show you the way. For now, this may be a claim to you. So what will be the difference that sets me apart from others? You will taste and understand this as you read the articles. So, we will move forward together. With sincerity, honesty, and smart steps. For now, I can only write this much.
NOT A MIRAGE BUT SPRING WATER
Those who read this series of articles will see that it is possible to take precautions against the impending danger from the forest with what they will learn. Just as a person in the desert searching for water with a burning liver suddenly encounters an icy spring, they will start a brand new life. This is the reason why this article is written. I wish humanity to benefit from it. (Ö.C.E.)
