Death would strike anybody anytime. if it happnes people of the world must share the pain as human beings regardless of the identity of the deceased. But people who still live in primitive cultures of tribalism do not grieve collectively as they are divided by an invisible wall of hatred which can not even be broken at times of death and loss. Shame. Painting by Dr. Osman who viewed grieving from a different perspective. You can find his works at www.osmanart.net
Loss of a loved one is quite painful
But people should grieve collectively
People who hail from Backward cultures
Hide behind the shadows of dry tears
Thinking that wailing is a sign of weakness
Or a gain to the adversary or opponents
They cannot share pain yet try to share joy
Is that possible?
Never
They shall always remain divided in life
Abdi-Noor, though I am not from your native land. I have always viewd the troubles of Africa as having its root cause exactly where you indicate. Tribal differences dating back through the millenia. Hatred rooted in a lack of understanding, a lack of a broader perspective of mankind. May God help these people to understand, compassion, love and humility. Something far greater than self. To be able to help someone, they must first be willing to acept your help. Thank you for sharing your insight into this dilemma with the den. May peace be always with you. Jon Michael Willey
