Hello List,

I often find myself without understanding of the thoughts and actions of
individuals and groups around the world.  A simple news flash concerning the
"successful" bombing of so-called enemy targets confuses me.  Learning of a
random act of violence boggles my mind.  I simply cannot comprehend that which
drives one to hurt or kill another.  When I think of the people that are
scared of war and hatred I feel their fear.  I wish I could scoop them up in
one swipe and deliver them to safety.  But I cannot.  I wish I could bring the
haters together and teach them brotherly love.  But I cannot.  I wish I could
instill in the minds of the disrespectful the joy of respect and
consideration.  But I cannot.  I cannot, because the haters understand not,
love, as I do not understand hate.  I cannot because the disrespectful
understand not, respect, as I do not understand disrespect.  How one person
can become so disgruntled over the affairs of another is beyond me.  I do not
practice any religion.  I know of no truth.  I know of no almighty.  Therefore
judgement I know not.  It saddens me to see the actions and equal reactions of
man in his time of unrestrained emotion.  I am not for war nor am I against.
I am for doing everything I can to keep peace and love in my environment.  

It's hard to be caught in an arguement, as well as observe one.  A scaled down
version of a war happened here.  To be honest it makes me very uncomfortable.
I too am a former serviceman.  Some of us are able to shed the killer we were
molded into.  Others harbour it deep within themselves, always feeling it's
presence.  When someone makes a damaging remark towards war or a person
engaged in it, I manage to deflect the remark without consideration.  That
means I don't even sit and think to myself of the interior hatred I have for
that person.  Because I have none.  Why is it that 99 times out of a 100 its
someone waging war rather than someone moving for peace?  I'll tell you,
because those who seek peace do not rise up to others in offense for their
movement.  It would not be peaceful.  Instead, we sit back and watch. We
choose to not get involved.  We only hope and wish.  And once in a while we
will let it be known that we are hoping and wishing for a peaceful world.  But
we never ask anybody to join us... because they know not our ways as we know
not theirs.

Thank you Grandpa for passing that down to me in my time of ignorance.

George Nicula
