The world
It is very artistic
whether it's known or is still lying dormant
whether it's natural or artificial
This world contains everything
​
When you observe this world
you will notice its charm
The scenery is nothing like anything humans have made
It's full of audio from everywhere
The birds singing and the rain's pitter-patter
All of it is audible to us
​
Men have tried learning about the world
Biology and botany
Alchemy and astronomy
Yet we still don't fully understand it
​
How did it come to existence?
Is it like what the bible told us where god made everything?
Or is it like what the big bang theory says?
Which one of this is true?
Thinking about it makes my head hurt like hell
​
Why are humans made different from each other?
Some are smart and some are athletic
Some are selfless and some are egoistic
Why can't we all just be the same?
​
Destiny
Something that's bugging me?
Why is there such a thing?
Why can there be so so few triathlon athletes that become pros?
while there are thousands who also wants to be?
It's not as if they're not doing their best
why can't we just all achieve the successes we want?
​
Relationships
Whether it's with humans or animals
Why are there relationships like symbiosis parasitism?
Why make someone meet a person who can only cause pain?
someone who can only beg for our pardon
​
The duality called good and bad
This duo can't exist without one another
Even though they contradict with each other
there can't be a donator who gives donation without the existence of inequality
Nor can there be police without criminals
​
So many questions people asks
But only some are answered
Are we just too ambitious?
Is the world not meant to be discovered?
Or do we just need more time?
The answer seem to be ambiguous

Down Syndrome
I think that Icelandic’s Down syndrome termination is the right thing to do. Yes, people might think that it’s not right. They might think abortion equals to murder. People might think that those parents are selfish for aborting their pregnancy just because their children might not be normal. In my opinion, they don’t do this because they don’t want defective children. I think they do it as an act of kindness to spare their children of the hardship they would face. Even if they live, their life would feel a lot like hell. Just because they’re not normal, they would have to face constant bullying, being ostracized, and being treated like fool of. If it was me who has to face all of these things, I would rather not have existed than being faced with all of these problems. What kind of parents would want these things for their children? What kind of parents wants to see their kids suffer? Doing this spare them and their children of facing these problems. It might seem inhumane, but can you say for sure that aborting potential Down syndrome people so they won’t have to live in hell more inhumane than letting them live, and but have to live while being looked down on?
