A Sick World

It was an alarming news- Albinos in Tanzania are being hunted because according to some witchcraft or voodoos, the body parts of albinos make their magic potion more effective. Mothers who have albino kids are scared. So are all the albinos living in that country. Read:

Another astonishing news for me, quite shocking too, is the 8-year old kid who was convicted of killing his parent and another elder with a gun. Read:
But really, I don't think that the 8-year old boy is capable of doing this... The investigation is still on process.

Stories like these are alarming. Are we living in a crazy, demented world? It surely is unsafe for anyone. Who knows what the next surprising news will be? Will it get worse each day? Are these incidents are works of too much violence and chaos of our surroundings?

I still believe that we, mankind, have a pure, 'white' heart (like what my Egyptian friend Nora tells me). In our hearts lie the purity of our conscience, kindness and love.

Let us just pray and hope for the best!
