*The world seems apathetic to The agonies of those who live In remote countries; deaf to The cries that scorch the weeping wind. It’s time that we open our eyes & understand that terror happens On every corner of the map, Not simply nations close to home. It’s time that we open our hearts & learn to sympathize with all Casualties of disaster, Regardless of their differences. It’s time that we open our minds & realize solutions for The suffering are well within Our reach, but only if we want them. The human race can overcome anything, But only if we stand together as one. A prayer to Baghdad; A prayer to Istanbul; A prayer to Jeddah; A prayer to Dhaka. And anywhere I may have missed.*

Together As One
*The world seems apathetic to The agonies of those who live In remote countries; deaf to The cries that scorch the weeping wind. It’s time that we open our eyes & understand that terror happens On every corner of the map, Not simply nations close to home. It’s time that we open our hearts & learn to sympathize with all Casualties of disaster, Regardless of their differences. It’s time that we open our minds & realize solutions for The suffering are well within Our reach, but only if we want them. The human race can overcome anything, But only if we stand together as one. A prayer to Baghdad; A prayer to Istanbul; A prayer to Jeddah; A prayer to Dhaka. And anywhere I may have missed.*
Though the message is a bit "cliche," it's something I think we should keep reminding ourselves of none-the-less.
