Children of Iraq



Most of time when I read on some authors, philosophies, scientists, artists, musicians…etc , found those people start a hard , poor life , suffering from many things in their lives, but they worked hard to make some thing to the Humanity in spite of all that.

Now I am looking to Iraqi children and how they live which make me think in future and said "Am sure many of them will be greatest persons and offer some thing to the Humanity".

Let me talk to how a child lives in Iraq….

Going to school is one of the important things which each child must do; terror of kidnapping is one of the hard things which each family faced, bombing cars, bombs and shooting make all families drive their children to school and some moms stayed at schools till the day end to ensure their safety.


Vacations for them mean staying at home, watching TV or playing football at home, nothing in their vacations called trips or anything joyful. Child is lucky if he had a PC or PS to spent time playing.

Most of Children now talks in politic and said this leader is good and that is not, and know the difference between the occupation and freedom and many things I don't remember I heard about it before when was a child.

But when I see those children go to school in these conditions, I feel in HOPE that the future will be better than which they live now.

For all people around the world who said that there is no life in Iraq , I said all the future will be in Iraq , not just because it is my country but because it has a great people fighting to make a life there ( Iraqis and not Iraqis).




Thanks

Hello Nibras.

It is about time some one start to wary about the Iraqi children and there future
I really wish those who out to be concern of that matter reads your article.

The time is mature to establish what ever we can to help our children lead a better and more reasonable life.

Nibras I am afraid that suffering will not help any one finding there ways in life, what our children needs is lots of love and lots of care, this are the ingredients that will make a deference and eventually leads to a better life.
I have to admit many great personalities suffered a lot, but I don’t think that was the key to there success.
Any way your article makes me wonder, it’s full of hope, thank you,,,,looking forward for your next project.

Yours truly,

Hi Nibras,

good to see you are back in writing, i was hoping to hear of you.

There is real power in your words and thank you for giving us this hope... words spell out desires and can make real what we need to happen. And when these words come from the heart in total honesty they have real power.

Just by speaking words of hope and asking for a better life is a process we all need to go through... if we do not believe that a better world will come for us and our children then we might as well go and live in a cave.

Live for the light and believing in love. Some of us are here to give balance, to shine when all is dark, to give when everyone wants to take...

WALK PROUD
