Violence for Violence

   There are so much violence around us these days. Open the newspaper, switch on the television, the internet, all kinds of media....child abuse, school bullies, war, bombings, murders... Is it because communication gadgets are getting very advance that we get news fast or these had been happening since ancient times? Is it getting worse due to better improvise technologies, exposure/easy access to violent happenings and start up a chain of copycats? Change in the lifestyle of societies? What are the reasons? We could only guess and be supported by theories through studies base on certain groups of people by supposed qualified experts. At the end, we know there is no definite answer because of complicated, interwoven factors. What actually happen up there in the brain left much to be discovered.

   People tend to solve violence with violence.Pay an eye for an eye...You hit me, I hit you back...Revenge... If that is how to settle or overcome violence, then how is violence ever going to end? There will never be an end...a 'never ending story'. People should start thinking deeply and rationally as humans. We don't like to be called beasts or animals. So shouldn't we behave as humans should  instead of otherwise? Come on... this is the 21st Century, our brains should improve on solving matters amicably and not moving backwards by using centuries old method such as revenge. This is considered simple animal instinct. I am sure that we can do better than that. I really pray for peace, be well and happy each day...my family, myself and everybody.
