Love

I apologize for not writing any sooner. I have been busy with school and work. I was shocked at the series of violence that has been going on in the world over the past week.

I pray to the victims to the series of attacks that has taken place in Germany. The shooting in Munich, the suicide bombing attack in Ansbach, and the machete attack in Reutlingen. The attacks to be seem more and more prominent in Europe. As well as the Middle East, I heard news of the attack in Baghdad. ISIS is not a group of love, it promotes hate and is turning people against one another.

We should stand together as one to stand up for what is right, the human rights. The unwritten rule on what should be okay to do and what is not okay to do.

It was not right for slaves to be captured and sent to a country to be a slave, it was not right for Hitler to kill the Jews in the Holocaust, the Armenian Genocide was not right, the Rwanda Genocide was not right. I ask why did these things happen?

What made these people turn against one another and make them attack the other group. I believe the answer is fear. (Mind you I am not a professional, this is my own opinion, this blog is purely opinionated.) The fear of loosing what someone believes what is "rightfully" their own, like land or race.

That is how wars have started, and ended bloody. World Wars and Civil Wars.

Let us as people keep the peace, racism isn't necessary. We are all one people. We are not one of several races but of one race, the human race.

Whether you are black, white, Asian, mixed, Caribbean, Hispanic, West Indian, African, Australian, gay, straight, bi-sexual, transsexual, identify as a different gender than you are born, etc. We should not look at our differences as a negative but as a positive because no one is the same,

"One love, one heart
Let's get together and feel all right" - Bob Marley, One Love.
