What would you do if a war breaks out in your country?
Do you live in a place which has tent conflicts? Or, are you in a place where people worry about riots all the time because of some unstable political situations? Have your communities been suffering for religious problems for long time? If not, do you live in a divided country like me?
There have been lot's of conflicts and wars around the world and it seems that people are concerning where they should escape when a war occurs. I searched Internet about wars and I found that the key word, 'The safest place when a war breaks out?' is the most popular.
I clicked it with curiosity.
By the way, where do You think the safest place is?
Going out abroad, finding a shelter, staying at home is the best answer, and so on. There were different opinions. But I think no one knows about it because a war can happen anywhere and the effects of weapons such as nuclear, chemical and biological weapons are huge so they may clear the whole people in the world.
Then what could be the best way to avoid wars?
What about figuring out the ways not to cause a war instead of finding shelters?
Those natural disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions are beyond the human power. People have no choice but just try to protect their homes from them. However, causing wars is different from those of natural disasters. Because it was started from human, it can be ended by will of human. A war makes people die and have serious problems in many ways. Should we keep doing these kind of crucial behavior? In this reason, I think we, all people need to seek the ways to make the peaceful world. Handing down the world without wars to our descendants would be our obligation.
You might think that, 'easy to say, difficult to achieve in reality. Some people believe it's impossible to have complete peace with ceasing wars. They are not sure about it. However, there is a person claim that the peace must come and he has the answers to make it. He is Mr. Man hee Lee, a peace advocate.
I found a wonderful reports from world news. Do you know Mindanao in the Philippines? The conflicts between Islamist and Catholicism used to be there, People in there were always scared of guns and fights. Many of peace activities visited there to solve the problem but it was hard to achieve it. Mr. Man Hee Lee , however, visited there without any weapons but only messages of peace. He gave his speech to them, and made two representatives who are leaders of islam and catholic churches sign for the Peace Agreement.
Also, last month, he traveled to meet the presidents, former presidents, political leaders and hold peace conferences and seminars to ask them to join his campaign and make peace in the world together. Futhermore, he had visited Guatemala and laid a rose on the Palm of Peace with awarding appreciation plaque.
The peace advocate Man Hee Lee says about himself that he does not have a high level of education, and he is not just traveling around the world for fun or due to having lots of money. The reason why hi is doing is just for peace and he is sure we can have peaceful world by doing so. And he also claims that all the people in the world should be peace leaders who wish for peace.
There is a saying 'every little helps'. You can achieve big things when the tiny things are gathered. I hope that you have the mind of peace and stay in the belief that peace will come true.
If each person has the same mind of peace transcending race, county and religion, each an every place and country can be a peaceful place.
