Let's pray for Syria!

It is an unfortunate fact that we can secure peace only by preparing for war.

~ John F. Kennedy

If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.

Mother Teresa

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.
~ Jimi Hendrix

The real and lasting victories are those of peace, and not of war.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~

ONE DAY

Sometimes I lay
Under the moon
And thank God I'm breathing
Then I pray
Don't take me soon
'Cause I am here for a reason

Sometimes in my tears I drown
But I never let it get me down
So when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around because...

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There will be no more wars
And our children will play
One day [x6]

It's not about
Win or lose
Because we all lose
When they feed on the souls of the innocent
Blood-drenched pavement
Keep on moving though the waters stay raging

In this maze you can lose your way (your way)
It might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you no way (no way)

Sometimes in my tears I drown (I drown)
But I never let it get me down (get me down)
So when negativity surrounds (surrounds)
I know some day it'll all turn around because...

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There will be no more wars
And our children will play
One day [x6]

One day this all will change
Treat people the same
Stop with the violence
Down with the hate

One day we'll all be free
And proud to be
Under the same sun
Singing songs of freedom like
One day [x2]

All my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
For the people to say
That we don't wanna fight no more
There will be no more wars
And our children will play
One day [x6]

    What was war?  Is it fair, human rights?!

    Some men claim and support it all-nice!

    They are only power, all-aware, all-mights??

    They should control, rule, dominate, 

     other countries, areas, all parts??

    These are hearts? glass or black rocks?!

     We forgot the roots and the base?!

    The name of human not

    would retain on you and us

    if we have no sympathy for others

    like when  the poet Sadee truly says

    " Human beings are members of a whole,

    In creation of one essence and soul.

     

     

    God create us to be wise

    To be nice to our kinds

     

    So our Lord accept weeping eyes of pray

     May Save and safe all humans and essence

     All of fights come to the end, go away

     Never see the warfare not in world nor letters

     Children with parents can grow happily and play 

     Forever and ever, all days, merrily all of times.

  • Life is once, and its a Gift of God to born as human.....We do not know what will happen after death...so why cant we make this life happier by being human...

    Already we are surrounded by Natural disasters...then why the hell we are creating hell here....

    Just because of some persons hatred and foolish acts, Innocents also to suffer.....

    We cant do anything except Praying God for Peace in Syria..
