#innocent lives

I don’t really understand politics, borders, or why people decide to fight. I just know what I see.

I see children looking out of broken windows, waiting for something that never comes back. I see homes that used to be full of laughter, now filled with silence and dust. I see fear where there should be bedtime stories.

We are just kids. We don’t start wars. We don’t choose them. But somehow, we are the ones who grow up inside them.

If the world is run by adults, why does it feel like no one is protecting us?

I wish every person who makes decisions could stand in these empty rooms, look through shattered glass, and see the world the way we do now.

Maybe then they would understand.

I don’t want to be brave. I don’t want to be strong. I just want peace.

Please… let all the wars end. For everyone. Everywhere.

I know I am gonna get a lot of slack for this but it must be said.And I'll say it as long as I'm pro life!Abortion is murder simple as that,it's ending a life on purpose.An innocent valuable life...We as society are basically using abortion as birth control.Tv, movies,our physicians say it and even our friends say it's okay to consider abortion if the pregnancy doesn't fit into our current situation(for rape especially)and once the pregnancy test reads positive and the panic sets in there's only one option it seems.Terminate.I get it having a kid can be scary especially at a young age and not every woman wants to be a mother but there are other options other than abortion. Having a baby ripped out of your uterus isn't gonna solve the problem.It won't go away after you go home and move on with your life.The fact is there are countless women who can't have a child but really want to be a mother more than anything and have been trying for years to get pregnant.Going through IVF,surrogate,you name it to have a family of their own.Why is abortion the first thought or option a woman considers faced with an unplanned pregnancy?How many waiting mothers with empty wombs are the answer to the problem but still abortion is the one choice that makes sense?Human life no matter how young (6 weeks,6 days, 6 months)deserves a chance at life,unborn babies are innocent and precious and shouldn't be punished for how they came into the world.

Life begins at conception....

Give life a chance

May we never forget the innocent lives lost. By and at the hands of sick bastards! Brave first responders did their very best. 

I was truly humbled visiting the memorial. Seeing the names and knowing innocent people never returned home. Left me gasping for air.

Barefoot Gen

Barefoot Gen hits me hard, especially the animation that really pulled me into the chaos of that moment. The most powerful scene is when the bomb drops and we see the horrific aftermath. The colors in that scene are so striking. Before the blast, everything is full of life, but then, as the explosion tears through the city, the colors brighten to show how everyone’s bodies’ must’ve been during the bomb, turning every peice of skin on their bodies red. The aftermath of the bomb also has things get really intense. The show doesn't hold back when showing the radiation’s effect, people’s bodies deteriorating in real time. It’s not something we’ve seen up close, and that’s what makes this scene so powerful. The bomb dropped so quickly that we never had time to fully understand the long-term impact, but this scene gives us a glimpse of it in a way that words can’t fully capture.

But the movie isn’t just about devastation. There’s this underlying message of hope and rebuilding. After everything falls apart, we see how quickly people tried to piece their lives back together. One thing that stands out is how Gen’s hair grows back after the bombing. It seems simple, but it’s such a strong symbol. His hair growing back represents the reconstruction efforts happening around him. It’s like the community’s resilience, showing that even after the most catastrophic loss, people find a way to heal and rebuild. It’s a reminder that life moves on, and the human spirit is forced to be tough even after the darkest moments.

Lawyers, Guns, and Money

Circumstances sometimes arise that are so complex, so compelling, and so consequential as to necessitate extreme and challenging actions. For example, the Civil War, Pearl Harbor, and 9/11 are history-altering events that forever changed this country. While the numbers are unclear—which is part of the problem—the number of school shootings rising year over year is the latest event that will…
