The Innate Good in Humanity

21 39

Back when I was in elementary, I used to be a news writer at our school paper. And since then, watching and reading news has become my habit. But these days, whenever I am watching or reading news, there are lots of negativities I can see. Crimes, corruption, social issues and many other bad things that isn't pleasing at all.

There are times when I just can't fathom how those people can commit those bad deeds, why are they like that? Are they really like that? Where is the good in humanity?

We will always see something bad if we look around us but if we will only have a little change of perspective and try to look for some good and simple things instead, we can surely see a lot of them.

So look around you, and have the perspective that there is still hope in humanity, that we have this innate good within us. We just have to make an effort to actually see it on people.


Allow me to share to you some simple things that I have witnessed which shows about the goodness of the people.

Yesterday, there's this old lady who works at the barangay and she went to our home to collect money since there's someone who died in our barangay. It was my brother in law who talked to her and since he's a bit chatty, he interviewed the old lady for a while then he found out that her salary for a month from the barangay is just 300 pesos or $6. And Kuya being compassionate gave her some cash, for her hardwork.

And then we went to our neighbor and we saw her there, having some snacks at the sari-sari store. She greeted us so happily and her smile was just so priceless, she was so happy from the simple act that my brother in law did for her.

Last week, I went with my mom to the clinic for her check up. There's this guy who's sitting at the chair and when another patient who's already old came in, the guy who's sitting immediately get up without hesitation and offers his seat to the old patient since there are no chairs left that are available.

The other day, our dealer come to our store and told us about the product that we gave to her that we weren't able to add on her credit. Also another dealer who returned to us the excess change we have accidentally given here.

Earlier, I saw two ladies struggling to cross the street and the traffic enforcer is alert enough to give a sign for the vehicles to stop so that the two ladies can finally cross on the street.

There are also many times when the two laundry woman who's in charge of our laundry gave us back some cash which they have found on the pockets of our clothes that they are washing. They are just so honest.

Then donation drives also amazes me. It's just so nice and touching to know that there are lots of people who always offer a helping hand to those people who needs help, even though they don't need them. There are so many people who are willing to donate and give what they can give just to help someone in need.

We also had our social experiment activity when we were on senior high school and truly, those who also needs help, those who are working hard to sustain their financial needs surprisingly are the ones who also offer a helping hand to our classmates who acted as beggars.

We also have those people whom we can ask for directions whenever we are going to an unfamiliar place. And sometimes, there are people who won't just point you the way, there are some who will lead you the way until you finally reach your destination.


There are a lot more good things that I have witnessed but it will take us forever if I tell you about it one by one. The point here is just clear and simple, it's to show you the innate good in humanity.

All of us have something good within us the moment we were born. We have the capacity and the ability to offer a helping hand, to show kindness to people, to be compassionate to people, and all that thing that a human can do. Despite all the negativities that is surrounding us right now, let us not let those things ruin how we view humanity.

There are lots of bad things, there are those who are evil, but the goodness within us will always prevail. Have hope in humanity, look for the good things, do good things, spread kindness and positivity. Look around you and see the beauty and the goodness of humanity.

Marami oang may mabubuting loob Marygoround, mas nalalamangan ngs lang ata ng masasamang loob. Meron pa ring handang tumulong, tamo nga nong pumutol ung taal volcano. Diba ang daming nagpahatid ng tulong. Ultimo mga alagang hayop talagang sinagip ng ilan. May mga buhay di un sila kaya marapat lang din naman na iligtas. Nakakatuwa lang din kasi pag oras talaga ng pangangailangan maraming handang mag bukas ng bahay nila para may matuluyan ung iba. So there's still hope in humanity, sana lang mas malamangan na ng kabutihan ang kasamaan.

There’s no bad guys or good guys, they are just people living their lives. I still believe that everyone has a good heart. Some people just act differently because of their experiences while some act like an a$$hole kasi nagkamali ata sa pag bakuna nung bata pa sila 🤧🤣🤣 pero it was nice really nice reading this, mag pag-asa pa talaga ♥️♥️♥️

Marami parin naman talagang mga taong ganyan pero bihira nalang nating nakikita kasi mas nasanay tayo sa ating nabablitaan araw-araw na puro nalang gulo.

Pero everytime na nakakakita ako ng mga taong ganyan is gumagaan yung loob ko. Kasi a simple act of kindness make someone's day better ✨

Well, there are still good news sometimes but still, bad news are at the top. The media industry is still business, that's why they published news like that, to catch the attention of the public.
