Does insane come from the Arabic word for human; Insan?

'Could it be that in ancient times, wise Arab teachers knew that all insanity is within human kind?'


It's funny how we all know that hating a person eats and needs more energy than loving one does. With that knowledge in the back of your head, it's evident that people in general must be a pretty energetic species, if you think of the shape our world is in now.
From east to west, we are killing eachother for the sole purpose of having more, being more and foremost: staying more, than those opposing us.
We have forgotten te meaning of the word sharing a long time ago. The only thing we share nowadays are our the pictures and statuses through various social media.
We, the people of modern day, have taken the word ignorant to a whole 'nother level.

While we are trying to figure out which meal we should order at McDonalds, every second a little baby starves to death in the Horn of Africa. While we women 'kill' eachother to ensure we bring back enough fabric from the sale, somewhere in the world a woman is persecuted for not wearing enough fabric on her body. We kill our own, our neighbours of decades, to conquer back land we perceive to be ours, instead of continuing in sharing and living together.
We claim to understand and accept eachothers differences, but only until those differences become annoying to us or when other people convince us that they are a threat to our way of life.
And we are very easily persuaded into thinking that we are not the ones to blame.

In trying to better ourselves, we establish co-operations to ensure that all peoples are safe under their laws.
We call it 'uniting the nations' but in fact its influence stops right at the point we need it the most.
We keep track of those who do not abide by these international rules, forgetting to include the enforcer into the equasion.

The point is, when all's lost, we are ready to invest our last energy into hating; even if it means we are hating what we once knew to be a friend.

We can hate because we don´t want a man to love a man; we can hate because our white is not found in black; We can hate because our tribe has different colours than yours.
Hating is what we seem to do best.

We have an alternative energy going through our vains.
If it would be possible to turn that energy into electricity; we could light the world forever.
Can we not light the world, forever.
We could you know.
