People Fight In Wars
It was a little chilly today and I am thankful for that. I'm glad the chilly weather has crept in.
You know how we like to tell people about our feelings? How hard that particular day was for us and how hard it was to get through certain times. I think that is okay. But something made me think about it for a little bit.
I saw a post saying that back in the day, 18-year-olds enlisted in armies to fight in wars. While today, 18-year-olds are hurt because of the things that people say. I really don't know what to do with this information. My brain is trying to process it and it's triggering something.
I agree with the statement, that we should do something positive and give an impact. Do something meaningful with our lives instead of just wallowing in sadness and pity. But on the other hand, I think that accepting that darkness and sadness in our lives are important too. It does get dangerous because it's easier to delve into that sadness and darkness and nurse it and put it aside where it becomes your shadow and sort of beckons you from time to time. Finding the strength to obliterate that is important because it makes you take another step forward and you're out into the sunshine and you are stronger. But that strength is difficult to find. And I think it's okay to stumble while we're all trying to find that strength, no matter how many times that could happen. I think we just need to pick ourselves up and just try to go and find that strength. I believe that if we keep going, we'll get there. It might not be as crucial and fast as going to war. Because war is scary and damaging and traumatizing. I would never want to wish war upon anybody. I wish nobody had to go to war. But fighting for your country, religion and freedom is something amazing and beautiful. And I respect those who ever had to fight for the truth and for peace.
What I am trying to do is get all these thoughts organized because I feel like I agree to both sides of the argument. Because words really do hurt you as much as swords can physically harm you. I also agree that people should always try to do something meaningful and impact-ful instead of wallowing in self-pity and doing nothing about it.
