PEACE

why is peace so elusive?

how much more are still left to be sacrificed?

how can we acquire 'peace' in this intricate world?

i am an advocate of peace.
i love peace.
i believe it is better than the riches of this world.
above all wealth and treasures...
it is a masterpiece waiting to be made...

i never really thought that this word will mean so much to me.
before, it was just a simple five letter word.
simple to spell..
simple to pronounce..

yet,

so hard to achieve...

i've seen a video created by the CNN news team and it was about "genocide"..
it was a total destruction of a race, an ethnic group with no military power...
it was heart-breaking...
in a matter of few seconds, everything will turn to dust!
it was a crime against humankind!



i am not really good in persuading people...
not even a public speaker!
but who will stand against this
life threatening event?
who will end this suffering?
by talk or by force..
someone must take a lead!

war settles nothing but tears and agony!
whose convictions will surmount?
whose passion will prevail?

will you let fear wrap you inside?
or will you let "PEACE" keep the fire burning?

choose your battlecry!
