What They Never Tell You About War War, beyond what we may think of it, is a tragedy in its rawest form. It destroys homes, lives, and futures. But its most devastating effect is on children—the youngest and most vulnerable members of society. These children are often caught in a crossfire when conflict comes up, and while the physical wounds of war may heal over time, the mental scars they carry are far more difficult to erase. I’ve often asked myself: why do we still find ourselves entangled in wars, even while being a global society? Beyond the geopolitical reasons, what is it about humanity that compels some of us to choose violence? And more importantly, what happens to those who grow up in the midst of war who are too young to understand the reasons for war but are old enough to feel its impact? The Innocence Shattered by War Children deserve a world where laughter, play, happiness and curiosity are their daily companions. Such a world gives children atmosphere for growth and development. Yet, this ideal world that children require becomes... Continue reading this post through the link below 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 https://lnkd.in/ddKQUNHT #mentalhealth #war #violence

December 16: A Day We Will Never Forget Nine years ago, on December 16, 2014, a dark shadow descended over Pakistan. The day that should have been filled with the innocent laughter of schoolchildren instead echoed with unimaginable pain. It was on this day that the Army Public School (APS) in Peshawar became the target of one of the most heinous acts of terror in modern history. Over 140 lives were stolen, most of them children who were armed only with their books, dreams, and hope for a brighter future. The tragedy not only shook the nation but pierced the heart of humanity. It reminded us of the fragility of life and the devastating impact of hatred. A Nation in Mourning: The grief that followed was unlike anything the country had ever experienced. Parents buried their children, classmates bid farewell to their friends, and a nation mourned its future. But amid the tears, there was also resolve—a collective vow that such an atrocity would never be allowed to happen again. Honoring Their Sacrifice: The children of APS were not just victims; they became symbols of courage, resilience, and the fight against terrorism. Their sacrifice pushed the nation to confront its challenges head-on, leading to the development of the National Action Plan (NAP) to combat extremism. Schools across the country strengthened their security, and the entire nation united in its determination to protect its future generations. Lessons in Strength and Unity: December 16 serves as a solemn reminder of the cost of peace and the responsibility we all carry to ensure that such darkness is never repeated. It is a day to honor the memories of those we lost, support the families left behind, and recommit ourselves to building a society where children can dream freely, without fear. From Tragedy to Triumph: As we remember this day, let us channel our grief into action. Let it inspire us to raise our voices against violence, to educate future generations about the power of compassion, and to create a world where every child can thrive. We will never forget. We will never forgive. And we will never stop fighting for peace. #WeRemember #APS #December16 #NeverForget

Reflecting on 9/11: A Day That Changed the World Today, we remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001, a day that forever altered the course of history. Nearly 3,000 lives were lost, and with them, countless families were changed forever. In the face of unspeakable loss, we also witnessed incredible acts of heroism—from first responders who ran toward danger to ordinary people who stepped up to help however they could. The impact of 9/11 rippled far beyond that single day. It reshaped our world—our security, our politics, our communities. It ignited wars that spanned decades, leaving lasting scars for both soldiers and civilians. Many are still living with the effects of that day, carrying the weight of loss and sacrifice. As we remember those we lost, let’s also honor the strength, courage, and resilience shown in the aftermath. For many, 9/11 marked not just a day of tragedy but a turning point in how we came together—as a nation, as communities, and as individuals. On this anniversary, I encourage all of us to reflect on the lessons of that day, and to strive for greater understanding, empathy, and peace. May we never forget, and may we always work toward a better future in the memory of those who were lost. #NeverForget #911Remembrance #Resilience #Courage

https://lnkd.in/e9pzem2B Today, we honor the brave men and women who have served our nation. Yet, as we express gratitude, let’s acknowledge the harsh reality: many of our veterans are struggling with unseen wounds. Mental health crises, inadequate healthcare, and homelessness haunt far too many. Our veterans, who sacrificed for our freedom, deserve better. It’s time to end the neglect. They need accessible mental healthcare, quality physical care, and a supportive community. We can no longer tolerate the waste of taxpayer dollars on foreign aid and secretive projects. Let's redirect these funds to honor our heroes and ensure their well-being. To all our brave service members who have reached Valhalla through the sacrifices made in the line of duty, the struggles with insufficient healthcare, or the battles fought within themselves, and to our current and future veterans - YOU HAVE NOT BEEN FORGOTTEN. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out to the Veterans Crisis Line at 1-800-273-8255 or visit their website: https://lnkd.in/ec-s3t5G #VeteransDay #VeteransMentalHealth #VeteranSupport #TilValhallaProject #veteransuicideawareness #veteransusa #supportourveterans #ptsdawareness #mentalhealth #veteransfirst #veteranswithptsd #veteransuicideprevention #veteranshealth #veteranswellness #tbiawareness #parties #government #Republicans #Democrats #Libertarians #Congress

As we go into Memorial Day weekend. Hopefully enjoying some time with our friends and families enjoying a burger or hot dog. Just make sure remember the reason for the freedoms that we have. Here's some ground rules for this coming weekend: 1. Don't wish a Veteran a Happy Memorial day. There is nothing happy about brave men and women dying. Be happy to enjoy the freedoms they provided you. 2. It's not a holiday. It's a remembrance of those who died in combat 3. If you want to BBQ, grill or cookout do so.. but make sure you remember why we have this long weekend. Tell your kids why it's important. 4. Remember its not just about the "hero's" of movie and book fame, it's also about that Private who landed at Normandy, Baghdad, Vietnam, Korea or countless other battlefields large and small and died 2 minutes into his first combat action. 5. If you want to know the true meaning, visit Arlington or your local VA cemetery. Learn the story of why there are coins on the graves. 6. Patriotism is a great thing, show a flag in remembrance, but make sure its a flag of the US not some political movement (BLM, Blue stripe, Rebel flag etc). 7. Don't tell me how you almost joined, this is not about you (or me). Talk about Chesty Puller, George Patton, John Basilone, Dakota Meyer, Kyle Carpenter, Mitchell Paige, Ira Hayes, Chris Kyle and any other heroes too numerous to name. 8. Don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about. I have remembrances, and the burden, all too many times for warriors who now stand their post in front of God and history. 9. Say a prayer... and then another. 10. Remember the Fallen for all the Good they did while they were here. 11. Reach out and let a Vet know you're there, we're losing too many in "peace time".

Can grace calm the storm of extremism in America today? Yes. Yes it can. Here's how. Please check out my blog for this week: https://lnkd.in/eppsqrn7
