What I know is that greed had destroyed this world and it seems that it has no limit to stop. This is a tightening grip on the neck of humanity.
There was a time
When we shared the few things we had
When we lived together in sound harmony
When peace was abundant in everywhere
When religion was only a matter of faith
Then things have changed much to our chagrin and mortification
In today's world we have:
Divisions
Hatred
Segregations
Abhorrence and
Detestations
Religious wars
And extremism
Drying rivers
and aggressive seas
Rising temperatures
and cracked layers
Erratic seasons
And droughts.
Thought provoking write..I think as individuals the answer is to try to do what we all can with our own little piece of "our" worlds..I may be nieve but I think that is part of the answer..If everyone cared just a little more about the other person without thought of getting back we would be much happier..There is always happiness and contentment in giving your ALL
Superb write! Only Faith in Creator can change the trend, and sadly not enough are willing to do things His way to make the difference, and to save the world. We must keep praying, but all the signs are towards the negative for that's how most people are. Keep the faith AbdiNoor!
Dear Brother Abdi-Noor I bow once again to your pen and join you in your question for which I have no answer but to do the best that I can as a person who hopes to leave a legacy of caring, sharing, and love for my planet and it's inhabitants. I hope that this is a fleeting phase of our destined collective higher evolution. Peace, love and blessings to you and yours. Mikii
All that I (we) can do ... is to make a conscious effort to be the best person(s) that I (we) can ... by examining my (our) priorities and life style(s) and then consciously living by morally fair and honorable standards, actions and words. If each of us would make a fresh start today, taking responsibility for our own actions, then perhaps we would evoke change. A great thought provoking poem, Abdi-Noor! Thank you!

Well, I'm still going to kill those mean wasps on the back porch ...
I truly wish I was smart enough to know how to change this dreadful trend, Abdi-Noor. And I think it would literally take the dedicated conviction of all living souls to accomplish it.
Five years have passed. The sequel to the award-winning Chapel of Eternal Love, this book revisits the same couples in the first book, and where the lives have taken them since they left the altar at The Chapel of Eternal Love
