There are times when I am
discouraged and loose the motivation to write something inspiring and I know
merely words are not sufficient to inspire peace. But then what is enough to
inspire peace? And who needs to be inspired? Is it those who are fighting or
those who are fueling it or funding it or those who end up making money out of
it? Obviously, war is not as simple as groups fighting for their rights with
immense emotions but it also includes those handful of people who make money of
it and ensure its sustainability. And those who actually fight the war
think they are leading it but unknowingly play the role of passionate puppets
whose beliefs have become vague and are confused about what is the greater
good! I wish they would stop and reflect and reconsider what would actually help achieve the goal of well-being of those they represent. I hope those who are flourishing on wars would rethink their money-making strategy and have mercy on humanity. While we hope against all hope, there are times when frustration gives birth to several questions:
Would love for land, power
and money ever be replaced by
love, care and compassion?
Would a child's smile ever
become more precious than
the materialistic
possession?
Would they ever wake up
from
their shallow motivations?
Would they ever stop to
look at
the consequences of their
actions?
For how long the
humanitarians
will have to beg for resources?
For how long those who
fund wars
will be the leading
forces?
Will the simple ever
start following their own
hearts?
Will the common people
ever
take on the leadership
parts?
How many more have to die
empty handed to show
Only souls transition,
not even the bodies go!
Why then the lust for
power?
Why the fight, why the
war?
Why so much selfishness?
Why collect more and
more?
Stop in God's name,
Stop this bloody game!
When you look at the
damage your hands have done,
Aren't you ashamed?
Which religion teaches to sacrifice
the children?
What God commands
oppression over well-being?
What distorted book tells you
to interpose pain and
suffering?
No matter who you are,
if you justify the
violence,
you are lying about your
religion,
and probably have long
lost your conscience!
But you still have time,
make it right,
You will win with long
lasting benefits,
If with peace and
consideration you fight your fight!
