As humans we forget that we live with one another and we disregard the world around us. What we humans have done is isolated ourselves and have become less social as we have adapted to the changes of the modern world. But these enhancements should not limit us to make some good  in the world, today many problems will arise including bonds being broken and cruelty between both animals and humans. So let us help out each other and make a big difference so that in years To come life will be easier, not miserable

When we consider the younger population, it is there way of inequality . Most children would be harmed through verbal and physical bullying. At first people would think it is just a child making jokes or fun out of someone, but the thing is the person who is bullied would elevate it more dangerously which leads to mental disorders and even suicide- which I why the highest suicide rates are from young people. This effects would be harming the person who is bullied but what gets more worse is that they will commit unspeakable acts such as stealing, drug dealing, murder and many more. That is why the population today consists of people who are dangerous. That is why this should be a concern to people.

How bullying is serious effect  and the suffering of it even when small children go through it

Peace-
As I would say peacefulness is another mans wish, but this phrase will not work unless you are intentional about what you are doing. All of us wish to have peace, but here is the question are you peaceful. That is why today all we see is violence and other disturbing acts being committed. So basically peace is limited by you not by another person. If you can be respectful of others, then only peace is in existence. Our problem is we don’t practice self control, it is very important to do so. Today we are very loud, abusive and selfish, so because of that there is no order.

Justice-
In today’s society judgement is strong, and this can give a false view of a person, fear and and idea to give up on a person. We are so quick to judge that we don’t even consider to know what that person has gone through. He may have done something bad, but the thing is he is still a human being like us and we should learn to forgive rather than braking him. As these are not done we have bad people who are dangerous, but it does not mean we cannot help them and have faith in them. That is what Justice should be, it should be helping people who are negative.

The problems we face in the world today is because we do not treat each other with love, kindness and compassion. We do not know that how much we do that can effect the society like a explosion. Which is why it is important that should know what are these problems and how they arise. When you are aware you can take the problem head on with a solution but do not forget you are not alone in this battle. We can make the world a better place if we work together in harmony.

Never let anything put you down
Sometimes we face obstacles in in our life and these obstacles give us the option to sometimes give up, but it does not have to be a weakness rather a strength. We are all different in this world, which is what makes like beautiful. But we alienate them due to our differences, that should not be the case. We should learn to live with each other, so if these people can’t understand it then you must be the one to not let this happen to you. I know it is upsetting to some people to stand up for themselves in this situation but trust in yourself as are worthy enough to wield your special superpower. Some of us have goals to achieve which in turn can benefit the world so start by appreciating yourself with the efforts and talents you have put. Because others may not but you can and one day that self worth will be worth tat nourished the entire world. This will help you be the voice of others who are in need so be their superhero, after all this is the superpower we are all gifted with. So be the right person to inhale courage and exhale fear.

In this competitive world, most believe that to climb the mountain first, you must push the others down that mountain. You may be the first to reach the peak, but ask yourself whether you earned anything fairly. Until the action is done, it is too late to learn we damage ourselves as human beings by willingly damaging your own kind.
No matter how much you can escape from the guilt of your crime, you will always drown at the end. We all have emotions and playing with others feelings will affect your own. Your imagination is creating a virtual environment where it you goes through that damage you have created. Therefore creating a proper realization of your mistake.

You are your own competitor and just because you want to be the best does not mean you have to break human interaction apart and create a hostile environment.

If we could be fair and less hostile to one another, when there is a real need competition becomes your friend therefore increasing efficiency. There is less time to worry about your enemy’s coming after you and you feel lifted and good about yourself. So why not make a world full of people who know to live in one world.
By now this is a type of bullying, even being applied to adults. Let us set an example of helping one another but still getting up by our own merits and not by cutting strings.If you follow the steps of being- ⦁ Honest
2.hard working
3.Believing in yourself in others and yourself
4. Using your own Merits.
You will prevent inequality of the environment and at the same time and see your place in the world by having a good personality of yourself. Be a person that the world can look up to and not a person that people are afraid of.

When we do something good, we believe that in return we will receive good, but switching that saying around to doing a harmful act shall give the user consequences in return.

We all desire many things, the most necessary thing we will always go for is to lead a comfortable life filled with nothing to worry about. But it takes more than the facilities to build this vision as it requires good qualities which take a while to develop as we are not willing to do that in our lifestyle, This will lead to us going forward with negativity and harmful behavior, which in future will affect you as it is not a healthy lifestyle to lead. So building the structure of your personality is the baseline for your vision to come true in a proper manner.

We all want to live in an equal world filled with comfort and ease, so the same applies to the way we treat people depending on a wholesome or unwholesome act. So the question, you must ask yourself is do we want to live in the same manner as of when a person is badly mistreated or do we want to live a better life where everyone is treated with equal respect and kindness. It is based on your choosing that will decide on your life’s choices.

When we choose to do good, it pans out in a way to be infectious in even helping others including people who are close to you. So the need of living well does not have to be a selfish choice as it is shared among others. You too are able to develop good values towards people resulting in the development of a mannerist person. In that case you will be able to cope with the idea of respect and kindness.

Most are frustrated about being defined, so they go to do harmful things, yet they do not realize what they are actually getting into. At first it is satisfying to use his or her power to do anything they desire, but later on, it is too late to realize that they have committed a very serious act without thinking straight. That is why we must think before we leap as sometimes we are not aware of what we are actually doing. When we take it to a equation of a negative behavior equals to a negative life meaning that you would not be very happy or joyful, rather painful, suffering and traumatic in some cases. These are the consequences people will face if they commit a wrongful act.

In order to maintain a balanced nature, you must have self control over what you do, you should be able to analyze what is wrong and right. That way you are in your senses and it will develop further with the amount of self control you learn everyday. If you do still feel frustrated and angry, rather than taking it out on people, you might as well find some stress relieving activities to calm you down. At the end of the day, your life would be fully completed to be a good one.

In the case of an environment, different activities can take place among people, most of the time, there is a toxic environment of mistreatment. The people affected by the act of mistreatment by a bully shall experience a tough upbringing to the environment of the particular location, for example school, when a new student is transferred to a school environment he or she is not used to, this gives an opportunity for the bully to mistreat him for his own pleasure. For anybody, at first, this may be good fun, but would be good fun for them, if they too were badly mistreated as the victim of the bullying attack.

The situation of a bully ending up in the same way of his own victims is not a punishment of his mistake by fate, rather it is only a cycle of human life showing that bullying is a widespread disease that will happen to anybody, no matter him being a bully or of any high rank. After all, bullying is for the bullies entertainment being that he would not care about the morality of who he is trying to mistreat, for example if we take our favorite television shows actors, if they satisfy our entertainment, we would not go to care about the wrong things he has done in case he is removed from the cast. So in this case, the act of humanity of helping people with the same mission does not exist in the act of mistreatment. 

In order for the bully to avoid the lack of his privilege from his title, which is not possible, he has to make amends for his mistake on mistreating innocent bystanders, just for laughs, as he now realizes, he must treat people the way he wants to be treated. This realization will start from one bully, but it can spread widely if only there is a reduction of mistreatment, this can be done by the awareness of the dangers of bullying as it too can affect bullies, this will strike fear into the bullies by making them stop it. At the finalization of knowing how mistreatment can deeply hurt anybody including the act of bullying children, all of us can live without guilt and fear, and rather live with people, who will be there to support and help you in dire need.

In todays society, we tend to go in a modern trend, but giving unlimited freedom to women is still a continuation of the before 19th century era. We all consider the role of women to be a very simple and minor being that they have the duty of maintaining the household activities such as cooking for the family, Cleaning up after peoples messes, doing the laundry and many more. Even fulfilling this much of a workload is not a duty that is taken notice of or appreciated by the members of the family, instead the members of the family, most commonly the husband would demand more commitment for the household activities. This even puts more pressure on the woman as she is not free to do as she would please, yet her sacrifice, does not put her in a better admiration in the family.

The anchor that at times keep women at bay from their big dreams are men, as we live in a patriarchal society where men can overpower women. This makes it uneasy for the married woman to escape the clutches of her husband as in fear of loosing him, after all the woman wants to make the married life worthwhile for him. When considering a insensible man, the situation of the woman becomes very dangerous. Sometimes in a very toxic environment, men having the high amount of power would abuse the woman from any reason, such as, being unfulfilled with the woman's household work, or for his entertainment. This will leave the woman with scars, bruises, trauma, horrific memories and a negative outlook on life. This is known as domestic abuse being that this could be the first situation of abuse being that it initially comes from a place warmth and comfort, now being destroyed.

Going a step forward to getting a formal education, then in turn getting a good job role in society such as being a doctor, lawyer and other prestigious roles, is an option that some women do have access to, but a new challenge of dealing with constant stereotypes and workplace mistreatment will be an additional package that women will receive with their jobs. Situations like male employees bossing you to stay back on the workload of your organization and even the male boss, not looking to give a chance due to her gender. This scenario shows the strong influence of the patriarchal society, stronger than ever in the workplace where women are present. Not all women are treated in that manner, but it is important to note that this very common for the majority of women in the world.

With men having the higher position in the society, with or without the women having a very high social status, for the mans enjoyment he would command an innocent girl to do anything according to his wishes, promising he would take her higher in life in order for her to achieve her dreams and ensure a comfortable life. This gives a wrong sense of hard work and even feeling uncomfortable with the mans wishes, leaving the women at the end unfulfilled left with nothing by following this path. Even if the woman would refuse the mans wishes, she would be forced to live under them, this is in relation with trafficking of young girls by men in order to abuse them according to their wishes. 

Going back to the topic of formal education and job opportunities for women, where today it is accessible mostly in some way or another by women, there are underprivileged girls whose parents would try the best for their sons education but no for their daughters as of their traditional views, being that woman should take care of the household and not do the role of a man as they are too weak. But in reality, women are way stronger than they look, today you can see women driving cars even better than some men and in a family, your mother would be there for you, if your father is away from home, they are more than capable of not only doing a job, but even balancing it with taking care of the household and children. Surely now you can believe a woman has the capabilities of a man, if not more capable than a man.

Today there are still women wanting the opportunity to be educated, get a good job and be successful, but due to factors like the Patriarchal society, Old traditional views and the stereotypes of women, it has become a fit and an uneasy journey for them to even survive with them and to be honest, life is able to go on because of them being that as mothers they are fully giving you love throughout your childhood and giving life to a new human who could change the world are all things exclusive to all women. So just imagine the world, if they too could do wonders by doing their jobs perfectly with newfound creativity that could boost new heights for innovation faster. But it will only happen if we open up to the idea as the world is in dire need of women having equality as any other life form on earth.

Sometimes families will fight, argue and such, but at the end of the day, these families will unite once again with love and happiness. Sometimes life will make these short fallouts between families, a mistake, that will haunt them forever. What is meant by this situation is that of when a family member would have unpredictably passed away. So just imagine, this was a teenager, whose parents would have been angry at him for doing something wrong, sure this may be okay, but not if for the past 24 hours, they would torture the child of what his parents disliked of his action. Then the next day, when they realize a complication has happened to their son and he could not recover, means on his last day, he could not even have a good day, all because of a unnecessary anger. Today there are enough of parents who would mourn for their dead children, and wish they could make it up to them, but the sad reality is that it will never be fulfilled. So to the lucky parents, who still have their children, love them every second, understand that they make mistakes, after all, they are just youngsters, so be there to help them, rather than making them feel bad about themselves. So dear parents be grateful to your children for as long as they live.

Even siblings from a young age like to taunt each other, but when they use sensitive actions towards each other, this will cause a unpleasant emotions not only to their bond, but also to themselves as individuals. This will cause a separation among each others friendship and brotherhood. This acts as a disadvantage only when it comes to adulthood, where your parents are not alive to help you, so if you are blessed with siblings, yet your relationship is not strong, you feel isolated and helpless. Being that some people do not have any relatives or siblings, consider yourself lucky as some or most may not have one to keep company or provide love and happiness to prosper your life.

With reference to both stories, these too can apply to friends, Parents and other loved ones you may have. You may not realize it now, but when it is too late to make amends, only then you will realize your grudge or bitter anger did nothing to satisfy your ego, as only an emotion can effect you gravely in this matter. Always put your loved ones number one to your schedule and to your loving self. As humans, we all have a limited life span on this earth, so if you desire comfort way before your very last days, it is better you start now, whether you are a friend, Parent, Sibling, Relative or Child, there is not excuse for you to be a better human being to the only people who will be there for you till the end.
