About This Quote

The souls of none of them were dead, but only sleeping; now and then they would waken, and these were cruel times. These are the times in which we live. The world is changing fast in every aspect. Technology has gotten us in touch with people across the globe.

Communication has gotten easier by the day. People are traveling without restrictions and in the same time, they are becoming more violent. The world seems like it is falling apart at the seams.

However, this is not always true. There are still good people in this world fighting for what’s right. We can take strength from them when we feel down and out.

They give us hope that despite all of our struggles, there will always be someone who will be there for us to pull us up when we fall.
