What’s something you believe everyone should know.
Please note: When I say ‘start a war’ I’m not referring to troops, I’m referring to the powers that send in the troops.
Yes I know I’m normally more creative than this but to be honest, the amount of killing in a so called modern world beggars belief, as do the number of reasons for killing being okay. It’s war not murder. War is deliberate mass murder. The immense cruelty we hear of in the Ukraine, Middle East, areas of Africa, Syria, make me feel we’re less civilised than cave men. Yet there’s always a ‘good’ reason.
Since 1914/18 world ‘leaders’ have considered it to be war when they flatten cities and towns with the ordinary people still in the buildings or area. That’s not war it’s genocide and too many countries are guilty. Yet we will not learn and murderers are admired by too many.
Even in our streets we see things I never expected to see. Machetes on the streets of the UK, that’s one import we didn’t need.
So I’m restating the blindingly obvious because it clearly isn’t obvious enough. War is killing. Start a war, kill for a cause, and you are nothing more than a stone cold murderer.
However
What I would really like people to know is that peace, love, respect, and inclusion take far more courage and determination than any killer ever demonstrates.
Just believing in goodness takes immense strength and sheer stubbornness.
Not slamming someone’s head against a wall and screaming in their faces that they are garbage, weak, pathetic, requires every prayer you have, to keep you on track.
The truth is we all need to know that love is the only emotion worth having.
It’s actually immensely hard as all believers in human rights know, because the dark side is winning, partly because the decent people don’t stand up enough. There are billions of people in this world silently screaming no, scream it loudly. We are all this world has that’s truly courageous.
Peace
Respect
Inclusion
