My people may be facing a war due to recent events. Blood will shed. Soldiers will die. Their families will grieve. Poor people will suffer the most. Religious and political terms will be thrown around a lot. I’ll have to sit quietly in a different country and just take it all in. If you’ve read upto here, do you know what country I am from? What religion I follow? Does it matter? Does it?
"My wonderful old car had seen better days. Right sideview mirror was taped, left taillight was out, muffler had a hole, and inspection was overdue. A state trooper stopped me.
"Sir, your vehicle has several violations." My reply, "I didn't want to spend money, because I'm picking up a new car tomorrow." He laughed then, I presented my sales receipt, the trooper left saying "Enjoy your new car". Yea! No ticket.
