    Let's Make Peace!

    not War
    “Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a
    world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they
    have and all that they are.” by: Hafsat Abiola

    Look around you. Observe the world you are living in. Can you feel the beating of a thousand desperate
    hearts? Can you see the fear for tomorrow in the looks of people? Can you hear the cries of a thousand
    mothers who are losing their children each day?

    Now ask yourself, is this the place where you always wanted to live? Is this the place where each child
    expects to grow up when they open their innocent eyes and see the world for the first time? Are you
    able to look in the eyes of those children without the feeling of shame for this reality full of evil, which
    they have to face? Is this what we have prepared for them throughout centuries and years?

    We cannot deny the simple truth that we were the ones who have been constantly shaping this reality.
    But another simple truth is that it is not too late to change something. We can make this world a better
    place if we try. So why not to create good instead of evil? Why not to make peace instead of war? Why
    not to spread love and compassion instead of hate and arrogance?

    No one is born with evil within. We are born, filled with love towards everyone and everything around
    us. But instead of just following our hearts full of light, we keep feeding ourselves with darkness over and
    over again. When did we stop to judge people by their personality and started to consider the color of
    their skin? What urged us to acknowledge someone as an enemy just because of the place they were
    born in? Isn't Earth the only place all of us were born in? Are the borders that someone has drawn on
    the map powerful enough to build in our souls the borders of prejudice, alienating us from each other?
    Yes, they are! As long as we let them be. As long as we teach our children to let them be powerful
    enough.

    When the world and this life are nearly destroyed by the evil and hate we spread, we would hardly care
    about the power we have towards others. We would hardly care about the God others are praying for, as
    long as those prayers can give us a chance to survive. So why won't we stop caring about it right now, at
    this very moment? Why won't we start making this world a better place by creating peace and
    compassion? And finally, why won't we earn the right to look at our children's eyes with the feeling of
    pride for the world we have built for them?

    Think about these questions and, no doubt, you will find the answers. Because the answers to those
    questions are buried deep inside each one of us. And we will discover those answers as soon as we
    dispel the dust of evil and hate from our hearts... I am Alonto Johairah from grade 11 STEM Assalamo
    Alaikom and Good morning! Thankyou!
