They Are Refugees In Their Own Country

They are refugees in their own country..... No land for them to go. No body care them either They are known as refugees in their own country War brought uncertainty in their lives and made them to live in refugee camps forever They travel long distance along the road with their hand cart of chattels while their tears rolling over their eyes Parents are thinking about their children's future and children hate to see their parents suffering Many years have been gone and nothing has been done The war is still going on without any improvement Because of our careless and adamant leadership the innocent people are still living in refugee camp They are victims of diseases, accidents, violence, poverty kidnaps, rapes and cruelties towards humanity Let us join together and save these innocent people from the hands of uncivilized people on earth.

Ravi this is such a very sad thing. I hope it is not Sri Lanka you are talking about. I have not heard of this thing in your country, but I have heard of it in African and mideastern countries and I pray these people can finally get relief.

Human beings decide on wars which means they can put a stop to them. While we sip coffee in the morning and watch news, my question is always based on the fact that; do we even really care about what we are seeing? I feel sorry for the innocent people caught between selfless acts and greed. Thank you for sharing
