Have A Great Weekend. But Remember...

Thank God for the weekend. But...

How can we be at ease in the state of chaos?
Yes, your own place could be peaceful as at present. But what of those in the Middle East? The dead cannot complain. But their bereaved survivors are restless and sleepless. And as I blog, another one bites the dust in Iraq or Lebanon.

If we are enjoying, don't forget the suffering and the dying. Spare a thought for those who cannot share our joys with us now. And remember that what is happening to them can happen to anybody at anytime. We should pray for them and do as much as we could oblige to help the homeless, the poor and needy and the bereaved ones near us.

May the good Lord who knows all things comfort us all.

I stood alone gazing at the sea
I stood ill at ease.
The sun had gone to rest in the west.
But the twilight was teasing the night.

I was wondering as my mind was wandering
I saw faces in the waves grimacing at me
Contorted and distorted bodies flowing to and fro
I saw them as they wailed, in the endless tears of the earth.

Ahaah!
Tamuno Tonye.
So, you don't know that the seven seas are full of our endless tears
The seas are the tears of the earth since the first teardrop from Mother Earth.
And she has never stopped weeping and will never stop until our sorrows end.

Only God can end our sorrows.

Sweet Keshi,
it amazes me how humans choose to be so self-destructive?

Many parents failed to train their children and left them to turn into terrorists.

May God help not to breed monsters.
