children

I never want children.  I never want children because there are nearly seven billion human beings on this planet and the instinctive desire to procreate does not outweigh the notion that humanity is getting out of hand.  I cannot shake the feeling that we are headed for a stone wall and doing nothing to stop, let alone slow down.  I don’t want to help bring another life into this world when we do so little or nothing at all to help the ones who are given life and abandoned.  We do what we can, but it will never be enough.
