What of Family?

I looked around this campus, and all I could see was those who were apathetic and ignorant; both of society, culture, and politics. They didn't mind that the music they listened to or the movies they watched were manufactured heartlessly by a corporation. They didn't seem to care that, while they gobbled up this heartless, brutal form of culture, hundreds of thousands of people dying because of the government's abusive nature. They wanted to live life easily, see politics in nationalistically black and white terms and see culture in simplistically popular and unpopular understanding. Society, as it exists in its current form, is a curse to the land and an insult to the living beauty of humaneness. Society, as it exists among friends who have nothing else, is a blessing. It is the stars that make the darkness of night seem well-lit and more meaningful than that of a well-lit day.
