Paris, a country that many people list as their top 5 to-go country, which of course, including me.
After the attack in Paris happened, a lot of people mourn for the loss of Parisians but others are condemning people for only mourning for Parisians.
Why only #prayforParis? There are also innocent people who are involved with attacks in Syria, Iraq and other countries.
It is indeed very, very saddening that people are willing to bomb up themselves plus other people for the sake of God. No, it's not for the sake of religions. True religions teach people how to love, and love means peace.
And that includes religions such as Islam, Christian, Buddhist and so on. Religions don't require people to murder.
To be honest, we are considered so blessed to be Malaysians. We have great food, our natural disasters are not as serious as other countries, we have freedom to choose our religions and to practice our religions freely i.e we not only have mosques, we also have churches, temples etc, our country is not constantly under attack, compared with other countries.
Some of the survivors expressed their feelings in FB, and were shared around in FB. It was horrified to watch such horrendous scene with your own eyes, blood and bodies everywhere, chaos everywhere. The only positive thing that happened during this situation is that despite the chaos, strangers are willing to help each other to go through this hardship. They open the doors for the survivors for hiding purpose, they help them to search for their love ones, they lead them to a safety place and much more.
Of course, this kind of situation doesn't only happen in Paris. Despite all those attacks and earthquakes, there are still humanity.
It is easy for us to live thanklessly in a world that if full of trouble, struggles and woes. Don't let the brutality of the world take away your thankful heart. Remember you're God's child, and He has shown you His goodness and mercy through His work on the cross. :)
