Komabe, anthu akumwalira padziko lonse lapansi chifukwa cha ndondomeko za boma lathu. Zikuwoneka kuti palibe anthu okwanira omwe akutsutsana ndi zomwe zikuchitika chifukwa anthu ambiri amakana kuyang'ana imfa ndi chiwonongeko cha asilikali athu akuchoka padziko lonse lapansi. Ndikosavuta kwambiri kutseka maso athu. Ndikuganiza kuti uyu anali munthu wabwinodi amene ndinalankhula naye, ndipo pali anthu ambiri abwino ngati iye.
