How Not To Start a War

War is a sickness that kills one by one, you never know it's coming until - BAM! It will sneak up on you like a hit man, and it makes sure to take your only son. When I think about what they could have done to stop this madness before it began, my thoughts are of preaching's from a wise Man named Jesus Christ, only begotten Son. He talks of forgiveness and being meek, to always show kindness to thy neighbor. Even if they aren't worthy of your time, still, you must love and turn the other cheek. Don't be too weary of all your labor, that you are willing to commit a crime.
