Please listen to Abdulai’s disappointment and love “I was very young during the Taliban war. I fled to the Baba Mountains with my family..”

abdulaichangeabdulai & change

I was very young during the Taliban war. I fled to the Baba Mountains with my family.There was lots of snow then. When I returned…I never saw my father again.

We shouldn’t continue this manner of life. This life is hard & difficult.

We should have a good & better life through peace & reconciliation.

A resolute love can change every human being & every violent person.

Dear friends in Afghanistan & the world, we may not make it…

But as Ghandi encouraged, ‘ Be the change you want to see in the world.’

More troops & more war make life tough for us.

But we will still move towards love & truth.

Let we ourselves, the youth, bring change. Yes..yes..yes!

Love is how we’ll ask for peace! Let’s move…let’s go!

When disappointment closes in like another moon-less night

We pause in our madness as mere dying Men

From this grief we salvage an indomitable love

That turns even tears into rivers of light

That breaks out in a run, however weary our sight

We will still move towards love & truth

With love, we ask the Nobel Peace Laureate President Obama for a Reconciliation of Civil Hearts
