As all of you, I have been watching all the news about what is going on over the big blue ocean... my heart is saddened. What these people have to endure is unbelievable. It is bad enough that there is so much violence, as well as the multiple wars going on, we have natural disaster on top of it ( Egypt, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and now Japan). Those come from two different places human and a greater power (however you want to call it). I call that power, God. There are a lot of folks that say this is God (however you refer to him) warning us, ending the world, releasing his fury. Unfortunately those people are ridiculed for their beliefs. Kind of similar to how the war started wouldn’t you say, difference of beliefs.
I really find it ridiculous that all the source of violence -very simply put- can most times boil down to - someone didn't get their way and are throwing a tantrum. Now they have to lash out at others like a two year old. Wonder how they were brought up to have so much hatred in them. How someone can have such little respect for human life and think that they have the right and the power to do what they want to whom they want without repercussion. We punish our children for similar acts don't we? Time out, sit in a corner, some people yell and unfortunately some people hit. (And hitting a child- a whole other topic that infuriates me- what do you think you are teaching a child that doesn't really understand why what they did was wrong? By hitting them, all you are doing is teaching them to be scared and to hit when someone upsets them! - cause and effect.. same thing.) Anyway I digress. It is just really hard for me to comprehend how some people just think they are on such a pedestal. These dictators with power, that think they have the right to do what they want, and if someone doesn’t listen to them- they can slaughter their own, actually kill people, women, and children – even babies... Really??
