Angelic's blog: "I AM...."

I wonder how the world will be when I have children.

I hear gun’s and bomb’s exploding and people yelling at eachother.

 

    I see the night sky light up with fire.

I want so badly to stop the hate and anger in the world.

I pretend that the world is full of love for one another of every race.

    I feel the harsh reality of life.

I touch a crying child hurt by prejudice, promising him everything will be okay.

I worry that I can’t keep my promise.

I cry because I know he will continue to face anger toward him all his life and he is just an innocent child.

I understand that this world is never going to change, unless the people of this world are willing to change.

I say we are all equal no matter what race or religion we are.

I dream that one day the world will except one another for who they are on the inside.

Instead, of looking at their skin.

I try to get people to realize and understand that our skin and religion maybe different, but that we are all the same on the inside.

I hope mankind realizes what’s happening to our world before it’s to late to change and we end up killing ourselves over something as simple as our skin.
