What is war?
Everyday, there is a waging war, whether it be between friends, family, people, cultures, and nations. Everyday, people go through their own personal struggle. Everyday, people choose to ignore the worldwide issues going on. Instead, we focus on our problems. As the saying goes, ignorance is bliss. I asked people if they knew what was going on with Syria, majority didn't know. We keep ourselves too stuck in our own little world that we don't see the entire world. We don't see the others.
If we opened our eyes we'd see:
People are bleeding. People are dying. People are watching their loved ones die. People are fleeing. People are suffering, just like you and just like me. We have to realize that we are not alone in our struggle and that maybe, just maybe, we aren't going through as much as someone else. Open your eyes and walk a mile in their shoes.
