Wars – Nothing but Pain

How it will be to leave our country and be in some other place where the air you breathe is not yours,
the wind that caress is not yours, the sky you see is not yours?
You can't go to the place where you spent your childhood?
How it will be to leave all your friends, lovable ones and your properties and flee away one fine day?
They would've left their friends, their favourite tree/plant or their much loved stuffs.
Will they know when they will be able to go back to their place?
Do they know where they are heading?
Do they know how their future will be?
W/ a heavy heart and like a bird which doesn’t know its destination, there they leave...
W/ tears that couldn't get those answers but more questions, there they leave...
Leaving all they know and loved, there they leave...

Is this the case in one or two countries? How many people? How many of them become homeless
every other day, how many of them become refugees every day? Do we know?
Do we care? Do we bother?

What we did from our end? We see news everyday in TV and newspaper and continue w/ our day to life.
It’s just news for us. But for some people, this is LIFE. This is their day to day life.
For us, it is just some hot news sitting relaxed on our couch we sit and watch the news. Yeah, we are just common people; we can’t do anything to stop all these. We get up, go to office, crib about work, crib about food, crib about managers, compare our 60k salary w/ 75k salary and speak all day about our worries.
We forget that people are there who doesn’t even have a job, who doesn’t have a dress to wear, no home to get back in the night, no food to eat. We don’t care about them. Yeah, I am also like you. Shouldn’t we feeling guilty? We are cursing god that we are not born as Tatas or Birlas or Ambanis. But we should be grateful right that we are not born there and torn into pieces physically and mentally by wars?

We are just normal people. We just know only to crib. When will these sufferings end? When we will understand that love and Peace? When we will learn to love people? When we will stop the war?
Isn't wars are just political dramas and common people doesn’t get anything from wars
Except troubles and pain?
