We each have our own war to fight and struggles to overcome. We need to choose our battles. And life goes on. Even so, we must not turn a blind eye to Syria, as we go about our daily lives…

“Competent Syrian authorities intercepted a wireless communication between two terrorists in the Jawbar area of the Damascus governorate,” Jaafari said in a letter addressed to Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and the Security Council. The letter was published on Tuesday on the UN website.” – RT News: Militants in Syria prepare chemical attack in Damascus – UN envoy

We each have our own war to fight, struggles to overcome. We need to choose our battles and life goes on. Even so, we must not turn a blind eye to Syria, as we go about our daily lives. Stay Aware. Spread Awareness.

You can make a difference just by staying Informed. With knowledge, you will know that there are reasons for war, and why the reasons being put forth by mainstream media are questionable. Links to get started:

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”

“Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies – or else? The chain reaction of evil – hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars – must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.”

– Martin Luther King, Jr.

Super Typhoon Haiyan’s Big Wake Up Call To All Of Humanity: Life passes us by like a storm in the night. Don’t wait till it’s too late. Live Now. Love Now.

“The world has not seen a storm like this before,” Senen Mangalile, Philippines Consul General to the UK, on Super Typhoon Haiyan.

But now that we have, what are we really seeing?

HEARTACHE 

Destruction 

LOSS

Entire villages wiped from the Earth

DEVASTATED

Destroyed

DESPERATE

Missing families

DAMAGE

Starvation

FEAR

10,000 could be dead

HUNGER

Homeless

RUINS

Mourning

WEEPING

Homeless

DISTRESSED

‘Like the end of the world’

Aren’t we all a part of this human experience? Aren’t we all connected in our Pain and Struggle?

Super Typhoon Haiyan is a big wake up call to the things that really matter in this lifetime…

… love

… life

… family

… friends

But overtime, we forget…

Use it to remember.

Also remember the ones who are fighting to survive right now. There are many ways you can lend a hand, if you want to.

And then, as a friend said to me on November 9, Berlin,

“Live your life.

Live your love.

Live. Your. Love.”

Life passes us by like a storm in the night–on super hyper speed. Don’t wait till it’s too late. Live Now. Love Now. While you still can.

Love,

Mish.

A Reflection Of Love

‎LOVE is seen in the little things… in how you treat a ‘lesser creature’.

May we look deep within ourselves, see what causes us pain, and determine not to cause the same pain and suffering on other living, sentient beings.

As my dear uncle Roger would say, “Find a new sport”.

You’ll be surprised by how much more joy, deep satisfaction and happiness you’ll gain by saving an animal instead of ending its life prematurely for fun and games.

“Don’t play with food” is not just about table manners.

It’s about respecting the source of life that must be lost, for our own.

—

My admiration for a man whose heart is so yielded to a loving God, through his deep songs of Love to Him, has found a level ground in reality today–we’re only human and we’re bound to disappoint.

Today, I am allowed to see his human side, his love for hunting and the careless displays of his trophies for the world to see. The blood oozing out from the beautiful creature unto the snow and his happy grin as he clutches the horns of a wide-eyed deer, leaves me puzzled and saddened.

—

I too, have my own weaknesses and when scrutinised closely, will be a source of disappointment. I’m only human.

But it gives me hope that even in our imperfection, Perfect Love has been demonstrated for us. And everyday, is another chance to be a living reflection of Love, to the world.

Can we begin by loving His creation?

Love,

Mish.
