My Way Is the Right Way

Hitler says
My way is the right way
Kim, Jong-Woon says
My way is the right way
Republicans, Democrats, Independents say
Our way is the right way
Liberals, Conservatives, Men, Women say
Our way is the right way

Buddha says
My way is the enlightened way
Jesus says
My way is the god’s way
Mohamad says
My way is the Allah’s way

No wonder why we have
Wars
Divorces
Killings
Divisions
Strikes
All because we believe
Our ways are the right ways

What’s the solution?

Respect other ways
Learn to live together 
With differences
.
.
.

But what about the dictators?

Love. Simply love. Muhammad knew it, Jesus knew it, MLK, Jr. knew it, Gandhi knew it, Buddha knew it. For centuries great men have spoken it, but we have not listened. Welcome to Poetry Soup!

But how can I love someone or a political leader who killed my family members?

The solution is to not be "absolute" - show me the person who has never changed their mind, and I will show you someone I will probably not invite to a slumber party. Welcome to Poetry Soup!

Hi: The solution is to listen to and learn from all mankind. No one has a monopoly on truth. ~ gw
