Are you weak or strong

Why is it so hard to bend down and pick up a small piece of trash?
Why is it so hard to turn off the lights or the tv when you exit the room?
Why is it so so hard to think of the worlds problems?
Why is it so hard to say no when drugs are being passed around?

Why is it so hard to wake up in the morning to go to school for eight hours a day?
Why is it so hard to help someone else on the side of the road?
Why is it so hard to love?
Why is it so hard to hear the voices crying in the wind?
Wy is it so hard to take a moment one single act and do something fantastic with it?
Why is it so hard to read these questions without crying?
Why is it so hard to call a family member in another state with a birthday today?
Why is it so hard for factories to clean the air they use?
Why is it so hard to try and produce products from things less dangerous to the inviroment?
Why is it so hard for people to realize the impact human kind have on global warming?
Why is it so hard to not think about the world we live in thats dieing?

And why may I ask

Why is it so easy to drive 10 miles out of your way to pick up a friend for a party?
Why is it so easy to turn on every light and the house and all the 7 billion tv's and forget all of it as you drift of to sleep will the tv continues on with whatever smutty program playing today?
Why is it so easy to busy yourself up with video games and zone out in front of the tv?
Why is it so easy to get high or drunk once and kill someone's life behind a wheel?
Why is it so easy to say no to charity raising money for a good cause?

Why is it so easy to see the pain in other countries and your own and just turn off the news to some program that won't make you think?
Why is it so easy to focus on what we don't have compared to what we do have?
Why is it so easy to forget family but when a friend is in need you drop everything?
Why is it so easy to think of yourself before others?
Why is it so easy to pollute the air?
Why is it so easy to breathe it all in and not realize something is wrong with it?
Why is it so easy to burn down a forest just to begin a new crop?
Why is it so easy to think the world is invinsible?

I'll tell you why. The strong stand a few and alone while the weak stand a many and together wondering around looking for nothing.

Are you the weak or the strong?
Only you can answer that question by your actions and not your words!
