God Save Us

Somalia is in trouble now but shall go into a deeper and more complex problem if the present generation is not educated.

He is a young chap
He is an African
He is a Somali

His country is in war
His government is divided
His hopes are shattered

A rifle is slung over his shoulder
Hand gernades hang down his waist
He uses dangerous narcotic drugs

He never goes to school
He never dreams of future
He can't manage his life

Warlords are his role models
They have no ethical values
They have no moral convictions

He imitates their actions
He wants to be like them
He wants to lead like them

He is a growing problem
He is our next generation
Where are we heading to?
Doom. Isn't it?
God save us

Abdi Noor, you have it dead right! Education is the only way to bring balance to anotherwise skewed society where only a few warlords with guns backed by certain politicians rule by fear.
Keeping the rest of the people impoverished and too frightened
to do anything because they are iliterate. Excellent write!

Abdi-noor,

Indeed...God save us. It is up to us to educate our younger generation in the ways of peace. May you find it soon...keep speaking out about it, and things will improve.

(((HUGS))), love and continued prayers, your sister, Karla.

Have a blessed Ramadhan!

STUNNING!! This is just so stark and clinically, yet most movingly stated and penned, Abdi - right between the eyes, no messing. When God is all you've got, God is all you need - and is the only one who can truly bring the miraculous sea-change that is required. This is so sharp as a general picture, but also into the life and mind of a specific individual. Shattering in its effect. Thank you. Love and prayers, Kate xx

Oh Gosh. God save indeed. Never give up hope Abdi.

Need to make this known further.

Powerful write, Abdi-Noor. The things that are happening around the young ones - the next generation - are scary -- to them this is what life is about, this is what they are living for, this is whom they are striving to become. Profound question - where are we heading to?

God bless, Abdi!

Sandie.
