How could we become so cruel?

As I sit here, trying to shift my focus over work and some productivity, my mind fails me. Questions keeps echoing in my head...

What is the purpose of it all?

What happened to human nature? What did it become?

I gaze outside the window, seeking an answer, any answer! But all answers seem meaningless, full of contradicting prejudices, abscise, reasonless and triggering echoes in empty/narrowed/brainwashed mind spaces.

I watch as the world goes by; tears shed; revulsion mushroom and embellish; values crumble; actions dent characters, perceptions and respect.

My feelings no longer matter. It all became too indistinct to deem my individuality, flouting ache, sorrow, distress, purpose of existence, humanity, friendships, passion and compassion.

How could we become so cruel?
