A Call For Humanity, A Call For World Peace
WallPaperCave

What happened to the world? What happened to us?

Where did humanity go?

Whether it’s domestic or international, or whether an action is defined as a terrorist attack or a hate crime…

they both translate to fear.

It’s time to understand that peace is what we need.

to see it as the call that the world needs to hear.

A fear that unfortunately can not be taken away because regardless as to whether or not you're at home, out on vacation or simply exploring something new,

We are in danger.

It’s time to come together and find a solution-

One that will act as a life changer.

This is a fear that co-exists within us, because regardless of whether or not you knew it existed it,

it’s out there.

It’s time for us to stop shedding tears,

And to get rid of all these fears.

A fear that regardless of whether you know the “attacker” or not, it can touch you personally. It can happen to you or anyone of your loved ones.

It saddens me to see the home, the society and the world in which my children, grandchildren and future generations will grow up in.

It’s the scariest I’ve ever been.

Let our children run free in a world without worries

Where all they feel is the wind hitting their adorable faces,

And where they can withhold and retell only fun stories.

To be able to hold hands with one another, for them to understand that we all come from different places,

but smile in the same language.

Let them learn the beauty of a peaceful world and to look far beyond from the terror.

Let them experience its prettiness

And teach them the language of happiness

We’re creating a world that foresees the unthinkable but forgets the innocence that once lived within us. We live in a world that was meant to be kept and was once created to be our planet.

It was supposed to be a beautiful place in which we were to be safe,

So let us stop the hate,

Let us get rid of all this terror.

Let us create a better place.

Enough is Enough…

Love is LOVE.

Faith is FAITH.

We are all ONE.

**Istanbul... Orlando.... Paris.... Families... Victims... World.. we are with you.**

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
