Advancing over the homes and bodies of children, women and men while territories, borders and beliefs were embattled ~
Our world still wars somewhere.
Advancing over the homes and bodies of children, women and men while territories, borders and beliefs are embattled ~
And still there are wars.
In World War I, injuries of body, mind and soul were horrific.
The battles bloody and forgotten.
The wounded that came home survived.
And survived.
And then there was World War II
And still there are wars.
When will the world be satisfied?
Where has our world gone wrong?
Do individuals, countries, dogmas or financial empires need to be right?
Do each of us need to have the most? the best?
Did our grandfathers, mothers and fathers die…….
No, are we to dishonour not just their memory,
but their pride and belief in what they did for us?
How can we come together in peace and fairness?
What do our warriors die for in these wars in our world?
“It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished
unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets.”
~ Voltaire
