Without
a doubt we all want a peaceful world; even those who started the war.
At least they say they do, and that's why they started the war,
fighting so as to achieve peace. Looking back at human history through
the past many centuries, the possibility is pessimistic not to insist
on downright improbable.
The absolute peace does exist, with all the different cultures, traditions, upbringings, backgrounds, races and all the rest that make the world quarrel and fight with one another, can and does coexist side by side, peacefully in one place. The library.
Or simply a well stocked bookshop. A haven of peace. I don't mean the number of readers in the library or customers in the bookshop, but the hundreds and hundreds of books. By authors of every race and creed, from every origin, background, culture, and religion, immortalizing their opinions, thoughts and views, vehement outcries and radical reasoning ..., serious, frivolous, or humorous, collected in those books. In the form of art, literature, history, culture, languages ... All these live happily together in the same place, without quarrelling, fighting, imposing more advantageous positions over others. The mutual respect is absolute.
There they are, written words by all those different people, not two alike, and they will stay and withhold the pass of time, to last longer than the stones of a cathedral, the roman bridges and skyscrapers. They are creators of liberty and testimonials of freedom of speech we all have access to.
Our world should be like a library. Our neighbours are our friends and companions day and night, summer and winter, good time or bad, to live together peacefully and respectfully, till the pages turn yellowed and all the prints faded out ... then the 2nd and 3rd and 4th editions for our future generations, to carry on with the mutual respect, and to continue cohabiting in harmony and ultimate peace.
