Hath not a Jew eyes?
Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?
Fed with the same food,
Hurt with the same weapons,
Subject to the same diseases,
Healed by the same means,
Warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer,
As a Christian is?
If you prick us, do we not bleed?
If you tickle us, do we not laugh?
If you poison us, do we not die?
The Merchant of Venice
Such strong words. I love to read them, because like the Jews were hated for being who they are. People today are too. They may not be hated so much like the Jews were, but people still are.
Being hated for who you are is the worst feeling in the world, because there is nothing else that you can be. You are you, there really isn't anything you can really do about it.
We are humans.
Humankind is suffering greatly from the hate in the world. Maybe because Humankind has the word 'Kind' and when there is so much hatred surrounding us. It is difficult to be kind to one another.
Why can't we be human and kind at the same time? We are of the HumanKind aren't we?
Just like the Jews were and are human still to this very day.
The people we dislike or even hate, are human too.
Do something different and be kind.
Cuz sometimes the best punishment to someone that has done you wrong...
Is by being kind.
Think for a second...
What would you do if someone gave you a gift after you did them wrong?
How would you feel?
