Where there is peace there is life
Where there is war there is death
In War a child dies for no reason
In peace the light of love is born
There is a lull in Mogadishu
A breath of peace has touched it
There is a respite from fighting
Rockets are not landing anymore
People have started trickling
To return back to their houses
There is a breathing space now
Safe corridors were re-opened
Food delivery began in earnest
It is time to feed the child
Let the baby smile
God bless!! Yes, let the baby smile, let all people smile and have an opportunity to go on with their lives. Far too much turmoil, more than one can endure.
Yes, peace is the key to everything. The continuation of fighting among the civilian population was ruthless and useless. Now, at last, there is one authority in the city. Let the baby smile. Let peace return.

There is sadness within the emotions of your thoughts and yet the smile of a child can bring back joy to the hearts of many....I send prayers from us to you and the many in Somalia....
