First of all, I don’t know if I am doing the right thing in making this blog on your community. I am apologizing in advance if you may view this content not favorable or against your perspective. This blog has meant no harm and has no political inclination whatsoever. This is solely my opinion and observation and has nothing to do with any political leaning. It can’t be helped but I started to turn on my computer and write down something which I think is best for my peace of mind. Though I know this war is quite far and has nothing to do with our country, I felt the need of making this blog because of the ongoing conflicts with all the unsettling stories and photos which I can only see on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube about this war.
I’ve heard about Ukraine and Russia’s conflicts in the news and thought that it would be wise to be just quiet about it and continue with my life. As the days go by, more and more news of Russian attacks on TV and social media; bombs exploding everywhere, missiles flying over buildings and houses; and innocent lives lost were prevalent and really disturbing. I asked myself, why is this happening and who is to blame? Well, Ukrainians have all the rights to defend their sovereignty if we are going to talk about lives in peril and death because of the attacks. Peace and freedom are the keys to have a prosperous and bountiful country yet I don’t understand, why this war? Why did Russia attack Ukraine?
I am just a normal citizen and I am a nobody. I am neither pro-Ukrainian nor pro-Russian but please don’t get me wrong on this. I am pro-Peace, pro-Life and for everybody’s welfare and peace of mind. I just want to make it clear that innocent people are the victims here. My heart bleeds, aching so bad and in anguish for the death of innocent children, men and soldiers who were also a father and a brother, women, youth and elderly. I can’t describe my emotions. The feeling of sadness is surreal. At the time of writing, I did not notice my tears were racing down my cheeks. I am so emotional it struck me so hard. I have a lot of questions. If this conflict has a questionable resolution by both parties, then who’s going to resolve it? If considerations of the sources of the conflict and the tolerable solutions remain distant, how can we deal with it? If there were desire to easily undone the damage done to various relationships, how can we rectify it? So many questions unanswered and no one is going to end this war should pride and inability to listen are prevailing.
I really don’t know if the root of this conflict can be traced back in history but in my opinion, should there be a way to move on and continue to live in harmony, why not do it no matter what? For the sake of lasting peace and harmony, I am asking the leader of Russia to recall his troops. I know that this plea has no dent and may not be heard but my prayer goes to all the people of Ukraine to be strong. This too shall pass and you will certainly come back strong and resilient.
Nobody wins in this war only losses. Stop the hate. Spread love to all humanity. We all live in one Earth and we deserve Peace and Harmony. Blame those leaders who only think for themselves not the majority. We don't deserve this war, Ukraine don't deserve this. May God bless you and keep you safe all throughout this darkest moment.
