Lighting Silent Vigil- RIP Angels of The World

1

For some moments in life there are no words.

Dear Readers,

 Terrorists slaughtered 141 people, 132 of them children, in a brazen terror attack on an army-run school in Pakistan’s Peshawar city.

“There is no foot so small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world”

 Yesterday brought back the painful memories from the year 2007, when I was in Islamabad for my Masters Thesis and the whole city came under siege. Hundreds of children were kept hostage inside Lal Masjid and the country of Pakistan came to  stand still. I still can’t forget the look of pain and anguish on the faces of parents as they waited for days outside the mosque compound in 42 degrees scorching heat for their children.

When I had my Eating Disorder, for years I stayed detached from the world of mass murder and politics. Since entering recovery, I was forced to snap out of my own little world of numbers and scales and accept the world for what it had become, a less peaceful place to live in. Someone once said to me, ‘by closing your eyes reality doesn’t change’, and that’s true every time I opened my eyes and looked outside the tinted world of ED, the harsh reality of life remained the same. Now with numb mind, I look at horrific acts of genocide take place across the world.

“Life is not the way it’s supposed to be… It’s the way it is…The way we cope with it, is what makes the difference.”

So I marched against Gaza Siege and Today with Heavy Heart, I walk down to my Town Square to light a vigil in the Memory of Angels who’ve gone to Heaven.

Today World has lost its Light and Heaven has Gained beautiful Angels.

Angels

There is only Darkness in the Hearts of Grieving Families as we People of the World Pray For Light. I along with People of the World Stand Against this Act of Injustice and I Light this Vigil with Million others in Memory of Beautiful Angels . Peace on Peshawar and Peace on our World.

We Cry For you Angels of Heaven

You are in Heaven Dear Children. RIP

Tears If tears could build a stairwell and memories were a lane, I would walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again. No farewell words were spoken no time to say good-bye . You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why. My heart still aches in sadness, and secret tears still flow. What it means to lose you, no one will ever know. Anonymous~
