When you think about it ....we are all human being "regardless" of labels "we" have created it
scattered thoughts.....
living for almost a year in a complete different culture , being exposed to this whole new experience made me realize that we are all same ...
I had friends from different parts of the world , with different backgrounds , different religion . I was not sure if being around so many people with variety of differences was a safe enough for me to do , I admit that I had this misconception that I might not be "welcomed" cause I cover my head but I guess such fears were implanted in my head due to what was presented in media , though , I literally stopped watching/reading news. But all what is out there highlights
Fear
Anger
Differences
injustice
But in community I lived with , I have learned that we all have a goal which is larger than us .... help others to flourish , we were always there for each other whenever we needed support , we are open to learn from each other , we get super excited for each other success and achievements , we HELPED each other even if we have limited time. To us "giving " was our theme that we lived by .... I've never felt myself , never felt so welcomed, loved, encouraged by such community, In this community what we experience most of time or let me be more realistic all time
love
kindness
support
laughter
happiness
joy
if you think I am making this up , then let me tell you about "MAPP " community or I'd rather call my "MAPP" family , what we have for each other is PURE love , regardless how life separated us but we are still waiting to meet again with a wide open arms for a warm hug !! but you know what we missed ? there was not a media coverage to highlight the beautiful experience we had ...
what are we promoting on our daily basis ? love or hatred ?
when I think of my own experience in being part of this loving family I see hope in creating a peaceful world
When I see whats presented in media I wonder if having a goal in creating a loving world is a silly idea and its impossible ?
My prayer is
May our ability to give love never ends
May we always seek for opportunity to give love
May we always feel safe no matter where we are
