Missing People...

I watch on the news how people are searching in hope for their missing loved ones...wondering if they survived or if they were buried in the rubble of the buildings. If they are still alive in the rubble then how are they gonna get out? and when? Questions and more questions race through peoples minds as they continue on their search with the tears from the tragedty rolling down their cheeks, forever staining the ground.

Revenge...

A word as cold and deadly as the word war itself. But that's what everyone craves. "We will get them for this!" But what about all of the other innocent people that we are gonna blindingly destroy? What are they gonna do? They are gonna fight back obviously. Because Revenge runs through there veins and swallow them whole until they get what they want.

Something Tells Me...

Something tells me that this is not over. What are the adults setting for us? Certainly not a good example. Parents tell their children that fighting is not the solution to any problem. A little kid pinches one kid...what do you think the other kid will do? Pinch back. I know what you are thinking. Two kids fighting are way different then two nations. But if you really think about it...and not let revenge consume you then you can see that their really is no difference and you will tell yourself "Man what a messed up nation I live in."

Is there an end...

Is there an end? Or can we stop the beggining to a cold blooded war? I am part of the next generation...and I will become an adult without the rage of revenge in me. I don't feel that that is a solution...this time, I'll listen to my parents...I can only hope that everyone else will too.

Why risk it...

Why risk thousands of men to go into war and die in pain and agony seeing the sight that they see and never be the same again? It's a tragety but it's gonna evolve to a more bigger one if we follow revenge down to the very core.

What are we trying to prove...

Are we really better than anyone else? Or are we the same? Just because we have the knowlegde to build a bomb that can blow up an entire continent killing everyone on it, does that really make us better? or smarter? No! It makes us look stupider for wiping out millions and millions of our own kind.

Freedom...

Freedom is not having to run for your life. Living in Peace with each other. Being able to step onto another continant without a gun with you and fearing for your life. We do not have Freedom. I fear for my life every where I go. I watch all these things that happen in the news and wonder "What if that was me?" Then I look back on what I've been through...Some free country on live in.
