Memories in A World Divided

There are topics that I generally avoid on my blog because my views can be somewhat controversial, and I do not wish to see my little corner turned into a debate ground.
Upon occasion however, I do feel the need to dip my toes into something a little bit different.

Our memories are what make us stronger and (hopefully) prevent us from repeating past mistakes. We keep them with us, and eventually they become part of who we are.

The question is, do we remember truth, or do we remember that which we have been told to believe?

I think that very much depends on what part of this earth we inhabit.

Often, it is those closest to home whom we mourn.

But it is important to remember that we are all part of a bigger world.

And global actions come with consequences of global proportions.

 

We find destruction most painful when it occurs close to home.

But it is important to remember, that even though we live in a world divided

My children have not lived a day of their lives when their country was not at war

.

We all share one earth.

When we hold to the belief that all life is important, one world is enough.

And even though we each most mourn our own

When they come home.

We are all very much the same despite our differences.

 

Every mother shares the same pain.
