Contradictions...

It is a crime to love outside marriage,

but a virtue to stay in a marriage with no love

It is all right to stop people loving in the open,

but entertainment to watch a public fight

It is a sin to think of same sex love,

but a heroic act to kill for ones nation and tribe.

It is unacceptable for government to increase taxes,

but disturbing to skip a meal and think of some starving child

It is wrong for reservations to exist in education,

but valid to deny a job to a person whose background is not right

It is acceptable for boys to have all the fun,

but frowned upon girls who dont dress up their part

It is fun if a foreigner has difficulty with your tongue,

but a disaster if he tries to earn for his life.

It is a problem if a person smokes and drink,

but society understands if he does not allow his wife to earn

It is tiresome to toil and work for change

But it is OK for someone to write and sigh.
