Mad World

An old movie was entitled "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World". It was a comedy, it was supposed to make people laugh, and probably it did. Looking at today's world, though, we don't feel like laughing. Next to the few funny or uplifting news, we hear about many dreadful happenings. Yes, we all know that the human nature is what it is, that the bad must necessarily coexist with the good... and so on. Yet, it's not easy to go out, or let your children go out, or simply stay at home, and contemplate the possibility that something terrible might happen just like this, in an instant, with no hint or clue. Should you be "afraid"? Maybe... or maybe not. Luckily, we have also been endowed with a little feeling called "hope". In what? In whom? Who knows?
