I have been feeling like blogging about this since forever. But everytime I did,at last the hesitation made me clicked the 'X' button. This topic,is something which people think that to change it is kinda impossible. And not few people brought this topic with anger and sarcasm,sometimes it would end up not good.
But what I had been seeing through the internet had forced me to write this. Feeling insulted as a born Chinese people, was what brought me to this topic. As usual, I was surfing through the internet when I found this.
*I blurred some parts and zoom the words*
It is a picture I found in a Malaysian girl's blog, but due to privacy,I blurred it. In there (her blog),she was totally upset with what was written, and I bet she's one of million people who feel the same thing. I went to the page on the picture and to my surprise, it was even worse than this. Many people like this page just to put comments to defend their own races. It's just like watching the third world war, and sad to say,the fact is, a race war.
Back in my hometown, actually I also feel the same thing. Truth be told, am not the only one. But still, our case is not as scary as this one, because back in my country, there's still a friendship and solidarity between races. I've got friends who are from different races and religions,but the most important part is, we are still friends. What's wrong with religions?? Nothing. Every religion will teach the same thing,why do we keep bothering our mind with it? Okay,some of them are fanatic, but it's just some of them. Not all ppl are the same, so stop dragging all people as one of them,because it'll be just unfair for them.
God created us with imperfections, that's because He wants all of the human in this world,no matter what blood you carry, what race you are, what religion you believe in, we still could complete each other. That's what life about, that's what Peace about. Why do we need to insult each other by offending people's belief ?? You know what?? When you offend people's religion, you're offending yours, you know why?? Because there's only ONE God, we serve only ONE God. *note it down.*
Races?? It doesnt matter, you know. Dont underestimate each other by saying ," You're chinese, you're Indian, you're Malay, you're Indonesian, you're japanese, you're korean, you're Negro, you're Americans , you're British etc." We're still the same, we're all human, remember?? Just open your mind, that's the key. Life is just too short for us to be in war, come on, have you not ever thought how great life will be if everyone lives in peace?? Then think about it now.
I hope you to know, difference isnt something meant to be, it's actually something we thought it would be. So,why not change it and open our minds? Peace is hard to achive, but it's POSSIBLE,because peace is not something we wish for, it is something we make,something we do,something we give away.
*just spend 10 seconds to imagine*
"Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one " --- John Lennon
See??? I hope you get what I mean. Let us change this together, I know it's not easy, but it's totally worth it. No offense in this post, just to share my thought, and I bet am one of those peoples in this blogosphere who felt like writing this topic.

There's nothing wrong with religions, races or you and me. We are social beings, thus we need to complete each other. Difference is beautiful. Can you imagine how dull our lives would be if it's all the same??
