Surprise, surprise...

Hmm.

I'm not sure what forces are at work nowadays, but coincidence cannot be ruled out entirely. I'm sure all of you have received news regarding the bomb attacks in London, and how amazingly that it occured one day after the city was slated to hold the 2012 Olympics, and it also happened right in the middle of the G8 summit.

While differing reprots have surfaced regarding how many people were killed or injured, one thing remains the same: the grim reality that we are all living in a world where uncertainty will prevail if we do not counter these extremists, and faith in a better tomorrow can bring us through this sad tragedy.

I find it interesting that certain groups of people would choose to make a living out of causing terror and destruction... where's the glory in causing pain and suffering? Would achieving their political and military ends through such means cast them in the favourable light of whichever God they pray to? Such people, in my opinion, are not even entitled to pray to a God.

God spreads the word of peace, harmony and obedience. If such individuals and organisations wish to perform such acts of horror, then I would say that they are selfish and incomsiderate towards those who share the same religion, but without a doubt abhorr such actions.

Yet again, there are those who find such individuals worthy of respect and fear. Respect and fear? Are persons who extinguish the lives of innocent people needlessly worthy of such appraisal? As a designer-in-training, I believe that we must respect the dignity and pride of our predecessors, peers, and preciders. This means that even for individuals like Leonardo da vinci who are supremely brilliant in the areas of design and the arts, their decision to come up with weapons of manslaughter and destruction would mean that they have no respect for the meaning of human life.

As such, I believe that being able to treasure the ones around us, appreciating their opinions and desires will make us grow into better persons, not only by being able to know what people want, but also how we can work around such opinions and desires which are indesireable.

For those who find it hard to find faith, I think I've managed to find a ray of light, as diffused as it might seem. In as few words to the point as possible regarding this subject, let me just say that: I might just be able to leave the bachelors' club soon enough, but nothing is confirmed.
