The Quest for Peace
Friday, August 1, 2008 by Ric
Since the advent of mankind, clashes of ideas from different ancient race had been happening on all parts of the world. Just like any creatures, the tendency to garner a space to settle down could be one of the many factors that brought about the birth of conflicts which in the long run became enormous that results into what we called war. As each nation advance to progress, the race to gain a larger part of geographical areas and vast natural resources became the optimum goal.
On war there were no winners but only losers and these had been proven time and again. Still, the tendency to wage one always persist. History relates some of the gorry phases of some conflicts not only within nations but inside each society within the country. The flights and sufferings of all the victims as well as their love ones will forever stay in their minds. For decades, all of these doesnt seem to bring awareness and lesson. The reason... power and greed at the expense of human lives and dignity. The dream to bring peace for the generation to come will remain an elusive dream.
