As I watched a fictional account of apocalypse through “Fear The Walking Dead” and replayed various aspects in my mind all night long, a book that showed a true life apocalypse came to mind. Although in this version the world didn’t truly come to an end if it wasn’t for a few brave men and woman it probably would. We all know something of those that fought on the firing line but how about those were under the evil control?
For at that time a true evil with power had risen and was taking over countries with sudden swiftness unmatched in world history and killing the innocent as if it was the devil itself. Yet some people in the center of such evil were able to find a bit of humanity. “The Last Jews Of Berlin” showcases a few of those brave souls who were willing to risk it all to save an innocent life or two. While many were too afraid to act or even looked the other way these individuals couldn’t. What possessed them to act in such benevolent way when evil was enveloping their very existence?
Today if such evil exists whether through man made disasters or natural disaster who would stand up to such evil and who would do only what they could to survive for themselves and family? How can we insure that there are more that care for others then just themselves when the going truly gets rough? There is only one I know that is to hold on to the faith and values when times are good so that they don’t disappear when times are rough. For although “Fear the Walking Dead” is fictional it’s lessons of survival for good must endure long past the commercial break.
