It is with tremendous happiness that I lie today! The world is coming together. On April 25, Nepal was struck with a natural disaster of 7.9 magnitude earthquake followed by avalanches. The devastating incident took away 2.5k lifes and counting with a huge amount of property loss. The toll of deaths and cries are surely to grieve on, but not for long. Aid from almost every part of world came in. Some were financial, some through moral and prayers and some through rescue ops.
India launched a rescue operation right away when the disaster occurred and named it "Operation Maitri". Honourable Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi offered help to our neighbours with utmost grace and influenced the world to join in.
UK government offered 5 million pounds where as the US offered a million. It is not about the amount that came in but the effort and will to help the victims.
It has been 36 hours since the incident and all I have been hearing about is the help the world will to provide to the victims of the earthquake.
My deepest sympathies to all the citizens for their loss. But to look on the bright side of this, we now know that humanity in us is not dead. Even though we are becoming selfish everyday, we offer help to people who need help. The world is coming together for one cause. Today it is for Nepal. Tomorrow it might be for something wonderful. Possibilities are endless! Today when we watch or read the news we hear about the aid offered to Nepal by these many countries and these many people came out, travelled to Nepal from their homeland and risked their lives to save others.
My hope, our hope, is risen higher.Hope for a one world government. Hope for a peaceful world. Where there will be no wars, where there will be no blood shed, where education, rights, food and shelter is more easily attainable rather than choice of suicide from one's own oppression! That day is no far, that day is achieve able, that day is not a fairytale. It can be owned, with the help of mine, with the help of yours, with the change in all of us. That day is no far.
