Hate invites fear into the mind of individuals, causing them
to lose all senses of reality. At which point, they have lost the feeling to
like or to care for others. For some, life is useless to them, and dying in
their mind, would release them from the demons living within them.
Recently, we have heard of, and some have watched the deaths
of many others, whose lives have been taken at the hands of those who no longer
cared about others. My heart is broken, and my soul weeps for those who have
lost their love ones, and for the lives that have been taken because of this evil
that lurks in the darkness, that has identified itself as “Fear”
Why do I refer to darkness? There are those who have said
that the people who committed such act “never portrayed any unusual behavior and
were very nice people.” Perhaps, that is what they saw. But it was a mental
illusion. Those demons were there tormenting that person and giving
instructions to destroy lives.
Killed because of
skin coloring, faith, or for any reason, is cause for alarm
Very recently, a young Muslim male was killed because he
drove his vehicle into the driveway of a white male. The man along with others
only wanted to back out of the driveway, and be on the way to their destination. Testimony revealed that the victim pleaded
with the murderer to allow him to turn his vehicle around. But the white male
refused to allow him to do so, and shot him instead. His reason for the murder
of an innocent man was “fear”
A young black male, wearing a hoodie was killed by a
neighborhood watchman of a different nationality.
The motive for the killing was "fear"
Point Made on a Personal
Note:
I have lots of friends international. When many of my
followers saw some Muslims names and photos, they dismissed me. Why? It is hate. Unfortunately, we live in a world
where some people will dismiss those who they no longer want to be friends with, because they don’t like their friends.
I posted a notice on my Social Media Networks where this
occurred, stating I will stand by my friends. I will not turn my back on my
friends under any circumstance. I consider those who dismissed me as their
friend, because of my friends who they don’t like, were never my friends. They did us all a favor.
I don’t choose my friends by color, race, religion, or gender. Nor
by any standard do I judge them. I’m honored having them for my friends. “Stand
by Me” is the thing I will value for my friends. Because I want them to know, I
will always be with them in spirit.
To My Friends:
In my garden, you are one single rose, but as my friend, you are my world.
