As simple as a prayer !

We keep on hearing about bomb blasts in different cities all around the world, we hear about cases of abduction, theft, rape, etc. And they are happening in different places. I mean we've become used to hearing about a bomb blast in Iraq, but when you hear about a bomb blast in Syria, it makes you worried. We can't count on the fact that our world is a safe place to live in. I'm not saying that because I think the world isn't safe, I'm saying that because I think the time for taking things for granted should end. We should be grateful for the fact that we are blessed to live in a place with a roof over our heads with the ones we love. Being grateful for that fact will make us feel for the less fortunate. We will understand their sorrow, and it will make us really feel for them enough to actually take a step forward to make our world a better place, and not only for our sake, but for the less fortune ones.


Feeling for others is very noble, and if we all searched deep down within we'll find compassion and sympathy. Imagine how rich your life would be if you thought about others, how they're sleeping at night not knowing whether they'll live to witness the dawn of the new day, whether they'll live to see their kids growing, whether they'll come a day that they'll feel safe and won't have to be up all night because of their fears. Let's help them, even if it's just by praying for them for a better life.

It was really amazing , so honest, and i totally agree with you, that it is actually abnormal to see blasting bombs as normal anywhere in the world , when we here 98 people died in Iraq ..the first time w say WHAT? how horrible ?. Damn everyone who give himself the right to kill for the sake of any reason whatever serious he shaped the words to turn it to be !....the second time 100 people died..we say What again? ...damn !..the third time ...again without but ...the fourth time we think that the face emotion is enough ...the fifth time there is no emotion but this inner feeling...the sixth time : we flip the channel like nothing happened like they are not human who just died like there weren't lives came to an end in a horrible way...It makes me sad that it do make a difference in your life w2here were you born ?...and i thought the birth-place is nothing but a word.....touching noor keep this up and never give up your prayers
