Today my
heart is saddened by the state of my city where I was born and brought up. My city is burning.
The places I used to visit frequently has turned to dust. Innocent lives are
being claimed. Tremors of terror can be experienced in every voice.
I fail to understand why people fight in the name of religion. No religion teaches
inhumanity.
That piece
of land , they say, it belongs to you, dear lord.
Then why
this bloodshed?
The fumes
smell of the sweat and the blood of those people who had put in their years in
establishing themselves. It’s all ashes. Work is workship, they say!
A piece of
land that took away the peace of the city. My city is burning!
Everybody
is suffering. No exceptions!
Wouldn’t
it have been better if they built a school and made it a place of service
where kids
from different religions would have come and learnt the lessons together while having fun?
I believe
in you dear God, but know not your form. You call me and I come to visit you in temple,
church, gurudwara or mosque. People tried to stop me, but no matter whatever people say, I follow my own
religion of humanity.
May peace
prevail!

What a piece of work is man !! What a quintessence of dust and ashes and smoke.
ReplyDeleteI am ashamed to call myself a Human being.
What is happening now is totally pointless and so heartbreaking... in so many places on Earth :(
ReplyDeleteHard to comprehend the hatred and violence that goes on around the world in the name of religion, or that's the excuse for hatred and greed. Your post sure made me think about the unfairness and suffering. Well written.
ReplyDeleteThought-provoking and heart warming peace where you expressed the emotion and anger felt. Why people don't understand that hatred has never benefited humanity. We may call God Ram, Allah or Jesus but there is only one God.
ReplyDeleteIt's heart breaking what is happening.

Truly heartfelt, everyone who reads this will pause... thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeletePayal, what you are doing is inspiring. Very few people are so broad minded. In the name of religion, people resort to murder.
