I am a Youth and I stand for Peace


Youth for Peace
by David Edet

I have dreams, visions and ambitions. I am not the only youth with dreams and ambitions. We are all humans, and being humans we are different in every ramification and sphere, making the means by which we intend getting to our dreams and ambitions different even though our dreams of a better life, a better world  for ourselves, family and friends are alike.


The absence of conflict is taken generally to mean peace, but conflicts has has been found to be a part of human existence. If peace is the absence of conflict then peace is death. So I present peace as compromise. As Youth we all crave for a better future and better world which could be seen as the end, and as its said "the end justifies the means" but you know of the various ends we have been having around us and in the world which points to the means that it justifies.
  

As Youth lets come to a compromise of our means and have a large level playing ground on every sphere of life, where our means selflessly interacts, where every voice is heard, every opinion is weighed, every decision rightly informed. Let us allow compromise bring harmony in our means and let us live our dreams and ambitions of a better society, a better life and a better whole.


I am a youth and my loyalty is not to religion, ethnicity, status, politician or elite but to my future. 

I Stand for compromise, I stand for Harmony, I stand for peace..
