Remember those illustrated circles of holding hands, with different ethnicities and all kinds of flags, remember the schools teachings of UN children's convention- a right to be safe- and the hope it gave, "From now on they would all be treated the same." If a pact was broken, the protector would never cave- like a lioness it would reach out and save its children (our children) from pain. Instead, when needed, the courage is in hiding, and so are the doves of peace- they hide behind their leaves. The words are visible, but where is the care, where is the lioness in all this despair ? The west was supposed to be a creator of peace and safety, but here we are, digging a grave. Death toll is rising as we vote whether or not to intervene, Children are dying as they flee. This is where my mind is at, it is a mess, all the trust I had for the big ones; our policies- a harbor of safety, it has left. And what about our children in the west ? What are we teaching them at best
From that moment on I Roar in the Afterglow. This is a blog about life and learning from it, love, positive thinking, self- worth, the small things, facing your emotions and that it´s ok to not always be ok. - Not forgetting a sprinkle of hope and humor. I hope that this blog will put a smile on a face, lighten up a day, or even empower someone whos fighting their own battle.
