Freedom

Our ancestors shed their sweat and blood fighting for liberty So through the diversity of nations We would not see destruction nor weakness in our differences But they fought,they gave their lives so we could live to feel the calm beauty the strength and harmony of freedom. May we never lose that freedom May we never trade it for Violence Hate and Mediocrity. Let not our anger,nor our voices silence the unity of our homelands. It is better to be us against the seven winds than us against eachother Because we are sons and daughters of the same world. We belong to the same mother. We are sisters and brothers.

Your words express so much truth and heart felt emotion Charmaine. You are touching on a subject that seems constant within me. Why can't we all just get along and live in peace together. Beautifully written my friend.

So true Charma...I think with social media and the ease of the internet we get caught up in taking sides when in fact we should be coming together for the good of all... excellent post
