“You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one.” -- John Lennon
“Dad, how do soldiers killing each other solve the world's problems?” ― Bill Watterson, Calvin and Hobbes: Sunday Pages 1985-1995
According
to Wikipedia, World peace is an ideal freedom, peace, and happiness among and
within all people and/or people. You can imagine being in peace by living with
no harms and threat, free to talk and do things in your minds.
It’s ironic how
every time we talk about this world peace issue, the word war comes in your
mind.
Since the
end of the Second World War in 1945 there have been over 250 major wars in
which over 23 million people have been killed, tens of millions made homeless,
and countless millions injured.
So many
have died, so many losses, still why people keep repeating those wars?
When will people learn from the past? Though,
there aren't any benefits, those heartless people make other people suffered
just to satisfy their horrible need.
We need to
do something. I used to be those kids who just sit there and watch as the world
suffered, as the other kids my age lift their weapons in the battle field. I
started to look up on the internet, and I felt embarrassed. This whole time we
sit and watch, thinking we’re just kid while kids our age dying in the battle
field, having their worst traumatic moments seeing their beloved dying.
We may have
no power to lift our weapons, but we have the advantage of information
technology on our side. Write on your blog, tweet on your twitter, make a video
blog on your YouTube channel, do whatever it takes to promote this peace, tell
your vision of world peace and tell the world what’s really happening.
World peace will be achieved when your heart is
willing to promote it, to make other people feel the peace you have right now.
