✨ This Is Not America: A Song, A Mirror, and My Personal Cry for Humanity
Sometimes a song isn’t just a song—it’s a mirror we didn’t ask for, but desperately need. That’s what This Is Not America by David Bowie has become for me. I’m not sharing it for nostalgia. I’m sharing it because, right now, in the midst of the pain, betrayal, and loss echoing across this nation, it’s the one piece of music that reflects my grief and hope all at once.
“This is not America…”
A line that lands differently today—like a warning and a wake-up call.
I’ve been on a mission for Adaptive Resiliency, from the standpoint of both self and collective preservation, but some days… that mission feels heavier than others. I’m not a politician. I’m not a celebrity. I’m just one human trying to keep the flame of compassion alive.
Coming Soon: A Song from My Heart – “Stop Killing Children”
In the coming days, I’ll be releasing an original music track titled “Stop Killing Children.” It will be freely downloadable, because I want it to be more than just a song. I want it to be a vessel for grief, for protest, for art, and for truth. I hope others will remix it, share it, build visual pieces with it, or play it in spaces where people gather to speak out against violence and inhumanity.
We are witnessing a disturbing normalization:
-
Children killed in war zones.
-
Children shot in schools.
-
Children disappearing at borders.
This track isn’t about politics. It’s about the sacredness of life. It’s a cry from my soul—and maybe yours too.
I Am Grieving — For the Children, For the Migrants, For Our Broken Compass
I feel overwhelming sadness—true, gut-level grief—for what is happening in our name. Our brothers and sisters are being kidnapped, deported, and discarded without due process, without dignity. The rule of law has become selective. Power now overrides principle.
This can’t continue.
Those in office who sanctioned these acts—those who ignored the cries—must one day answer for them. If not in court, then in history. And if not in history, then in spirit. Human dignity is not a partisan issue—it is a universal one.
❤️ Humans Are Precious. We Must Regain Our Humanity.
There’s no other way to say this:
We are unique. Irreplaceable. Humans are precious.
This era has numbed us. We scroll through suffering. We normalize horror. But I say no more.
No more children buried under rubble.
No more migrants lost to silence.
No more lies dressed as leadership.
We must respect and not harm each other anymore.
We must reclaim our humanity—before we forget what it ever meant.

Final Reflection:
David Bowie told us plainly, in 1985:
“This is not America.”
But now, the question is:
What do we want America to become?
And what will you do to make sure it never becomes what we fear most?
With a song, a voice, and a trembling heart—I will not be silent.
Because “Stop Killing Children” isn’t just a track.
It’s my soul speaking.
And I know I’m not alone.
