If you do not see them, are they there?

When you do not see good people around, does that mean they are not there?

We see criminals in the news and those with malicious intentions proudly displaying themselves in public.

They boast of their power and strut as if they were invincible. They taunt those they feel are weaker or those they can take advantage of.

Terrorists abroad like to intimidate their enemies by saying they far outnumber or are stronger than those who oppose them, hence, they entice the weak to join them out of fear.


So should one cave and give in?


If criminals sometimes must hide from the police to escape capture, we must also accept the reality that sometimes, the good guys have to hide in the shadow because bad guys will not let themselves be caught that easily.

Its not like a good cop can easily just announce his presence and all the bad guys will give up. If anything, he risks getting shot ahead of the commission of the crime to prevent him from stopping the crooks. He also risks the lives of those he loves.


So the next time you start losing hope because all you see is the bad, remember, there are good guys out there watching the bad guys, just waiting.
