Speaking out against the violence that exist in this world.

                                                  I turn on the news

                                     and hear of nothing but violence

                                       Perhaps it's time to speak out

                                         and end this code of silence.                      

                                              Some fight over things

                                           that have no real meaning.

                                              Others kill, even though

                                       they know that's not God's will.

                                                   Stop the violence

                                            and let the love increase.

                                                 Today and every day,

                                                   let there be peace!

There is something in young men's makeup, perhaps testosterone, that gets him into conflict easily. If adults recognize what it is, they can help channel that manhood into constructive challenges improving each young person's self-esteem.

The world is not violent, at least not as violent as the almost instantaneous news both locally and worldwide that arrives on our doorstep every day. Most neighborhoods are quite peaceful and not violent at all.

I'm with you.
I just can't understand violence.
Peace.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
