Man is not only of this world. The man, flora and fauna constitute a marriage. If this union is not balanced it is in the existence of the world! Every day we can see the headlines and on the other media that this balance has been broken for a long time. The man takes advantage of the weakest links and abuses of nature to [reach] its selfish goals.
I think it's true what my mother often says it does not work in the small can not even [besser: even] the great work. The "small" are the surroundings of everyday life. Unfortunately, my neighborhood I have just given the confirmation for this hypothesis [besser: that this assumption is correct / incorrect]. A person who was very close to me before, said that people who are born with a mental disability and physical strain are not entitled of life. He further said that infants with such defects must be done with an injection of poison [remove] to end their suffering. In your opinion does not make sense to live such a life and it is horrible to see people deformed. Outraged, shocked and sad, I stopped the conversation [and I left]. The same person does not even have compassion for foreigners who have fled [from their homeland]. According to her all the foreigners in Austria are to steal, sell drugs and to take advantage of the state and society. When this person said these things I started to argue with her. I tried to explain that many people have no choice and must flee [emigrate] because of hunger and political situation in their country. But she just said that these people should return "home" to fight for their rights! I do not know and even I can not understand why people think so often and so selfish because there are people who live with blinders on, they see everything pink and divide people into categories. To me a reason [for this] is certainly the fear of the strange things [and other]. Other people are afraid of losing power, money and their possessions. A perfect example for this [phenomenon] is Jörg Haider. He struggles at all costs at the expense of foreigners to stay in power and try to incite the people stupid and afraid to reach his goal. Unfortunately he then abuses the scapegoat: the stranger. It is sad that all this in a country that already had a past history so black! I think not only education is very important to combat these dangerous thoughts, because being smart does not mean having an intelligence office. Man is many things to be part of a group, so it behaves selfishly to show the group that is strong and brave. For this reason there are guys who drive too fast, for example, and at the age of nineteen years [oder: find themselves unwittingly] murderers.
There are people who love animals, have a cat or a dog, but bear fur mink. For me the exploitation of nature is an enigma that I can not understand [besser: fix> solve a problem, a riddle].
do not have a solution for these problems and hope not to become too selfish as so many other people. Katharina
