Something I am reminded today, that I am sighing with so much chaos these today's we sometimes are on the defense when we meet someone different then ourselves instead of smiling and welcoming them to a cup of coffee.

We as people are getting so use to frontal attacks that I hope we are not forgetting kindness and charity?

I learned something from a person last night, who we did start off on the wrong foot and we have since come to an agreement to listen instead of throwing written mud at each other. As I have said many times, if we stop and take the time to listen; we may find we like each other and like the world as a whole we can make the world better by simply listening and talking instead of the mud throwing!

Also, as a Muslimah I must remember like all Muslims that we believe all the way back to Adam their has always been Muslims and people who have chosen these other religions had done so by their environment at birth. That we for once in our history are a people that can talk to each other from any where on the earth and in doing so we must have a certain amount of decorum if we are to correct the current situation.

I even have to admit there is good and bad people all over this earth that by what ever reason doesn’t truly follow the rules of social order and I can only say when the time comes they will have to answer for their life.

Yes, I do agree time and again much needs to change for the world to be better and that justice must be done but we have to consider all means to accomplish this end or we are challenged with creating something that we can not repair.

I tend to wonder if this is what my grandfather really meant by what happens to create the end of time, social chaos and war?
