I realize more and more that we are living in an era of contrasts. We’ve reached Mars. Among so many other feats, medical science has made wizards out of humans – as doctors are transplanting newer technologies to improve the health of mankind. We are continuously attempting to enter the record books to beat our previous records!
Now our efforts ought to fully concentrate on removing the worldwide…. Wailing burden of conflict and unrest. Is that only massive wishful thinking?
I am perpetually thinking that those who will survive the ongoing ordeal will be seriously tarnished: emotionally and physically. Quite possibly they have been brutalized by their circumstances to such an extent that they will never be normal again. How cruel is that!
Am I not the typical example of a passive bystander! I don’t know. The thought makes me dim… yet I believe that we can bring back peace through earnest dialogues. This exercise has to create a confidence… a real confidence to build sense and sensitivity around our condition.
I am not giving up on hope… I cannot be crushed so easily! My desire to see a peaceful environment must remain buoyant… that light comes from my pen. For me, my pen is a magnetic force of: Hope. Hope with a new dawn.
