I talked to my sister who lives in a small city in China last night. I knew that she is pregnant and due to give birth soon, so I supposed she must be very excited. However, she is not. I learnt that her parents-in-law threw her and her husband out, simply because everyone thinks she will give birth to a baby girl. (This also implied that the parents-in-law are not bothered to look after my sister and the baby after the birth, because it will be a girl.)
I was shocked. I heard that people’s morality is changing because of a lot of things happening in China. However, I could not believe that people are losing their sense of FAMILY. My sister told me that if it is really a girl, her husband will divorce her, because his family NEEDS a boy. I had nothing to say. They are all educated people, well, they are supposed to be.
I could not fall asleep after talking to my sister. Is it just something happens to her, or is it like others’ saying, people’s morality has changed because of some policies? Where is the love By Black Eyed Peas
What's wrong with the world, mam People livin' like they ain't got no mamas I think the whole world addicted to the drama Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism But we still got terrorists here livin' In the USA, the big CIA The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK But if you only have love for your own race Then you only leave space to discriminate And to discriminate only generates hate And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah Badness is what you demonstrate And that's exactly how anger works and operates N**, you gotta have love just to set it straight Take control of your mind and meditate Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

It just ain't the same, always unchanged New days are strange, is the world insane If love and peace is so strong Why are there pieces of love that don't belong Nations droppin' bombs Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones With the ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin' in Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them divids Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug If you never know truth then you never know love Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know) Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know) Where's the love, y'all

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder Most of us only care about money makin' Selfishness got us followin' our own direction Wrong information always shown by the media Negative images is the main criteria Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria Kids act like what they see in the cinema Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity Whatever happened to the fairness in equality Instead in spreading love we spreading animosity Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under Gotta keep my faith alive to lovers bound
