Pacifism

It hurts a lot inside us

When we see so much violence.

Peace is what we want most,

But that cannot happen when there exists systemic oppression.

We don’t want people hurt, to suffer or die.

We don’t want people to lose their lives.

We value human life. We see the good and potential that people have inside.

We want people to be free, be happy, and be caring.

We want people to live life without fear of being victims of cruelty.

We want to live in a world where no one hurts one another and where we all treat each other like sisters and brothers.

We’d all care for each other. We’d all be like family.

How will we get there? I have no idea.

Are there peaceful solutions? I hope that there are.

In fact, I believe that there are.

One thing’s for sure; I am a pacifist.

I’m against using violence.

I don’t want to hurt others.

I care a lot about people.

Hurting them, to me, is evil.
