Peace is scarce! Yes, you read me right
A very essential commodity in our today's world. What really is peace? It is simply the absence of war. Many countries may say they are not at war but the number of deaths recorded in their day to day activities leave more dead people in their current state than when they are at war.
What with the unrest from Nigeria to Cameroon , Thailand to Turkey .America is not immuned in all these.
Where has peace gone to? Why has it fled many parts of the world?
Greed, insatiable quest for political Powers,lack of love for another and a near total absence of empathy amongst are just a few reasons why peace has fled most part of the world.
Who suffers most when peace is absent?
Women! She is the most hard hit. If she is not mourning a lost husband she is grieving a dead son. If none of these happened, she is assaulted in the absence of a male figure in her life. She is often left bare with little or no protection
So I will be hosting a project termed: Women Writing for Peace.
We want to produce more Women Peace Advocates so we can preach love, tolerance, patience and forgiveness amongst many others.
