Misconception

I am born a human with the ability to think and reason and to speak and slander. That makes me the most powerful creation. I can be ruthless and reckless. Does that make me proud of my existence or should I regret having been born into this species?

Homo sapiens are the epitome of brilliance ever created. How the humans evolved from the Neanderthals is of less significance now. Currently, our existence depends on the mercy of the other’s judgement. Variants of discrimination hinge on our form of birth which are highly despicable and abominable. Biased in religion, caste and creed are bygones. We are now categorized into different sects based on our sexuality. Its complex forms since surfaced, have created a great commotion in the society as a whole. If you are a heterosexual, you are straight. You get the power to criticize and demoralize the other forms. Your gender should be accepted and celebrated with pride and sincerity. Laws for equal civil rights to all, irrespective of sexuality should be launched and implemented. The movement should start from home, else the society cannot be transformed to accept this perception.
