i’m confused (困惑)these days. we are taught at home and at school that using violence (暴力) is the least civilized (文明的) way to solve problems. for example, last week i thought about hitting my friend for winning a beautiful shell while we were playing at the beach. i talked with him instead and we came to an agreement. if two adults had a disagreement, and if they used violence towards each other in order to win, is it all right?
when two countries disagree, they often fight a war. why is using violence not okay at home, at school, or in your country but okay between countries? so many people have been kille d because of wars, not only soldiers but ordinary people, even small children and babies. and refugees (難民) exist, too.
a war is a great violence, like two people fighting over a shell, just much bigger. adults say they are fighting wars in order to solve problems and make peace. but can you really “make peace” by killing so many people? i don’t think bombs (炸彈) can reach people’s hearts and change them. bombs can’t create love and caring, and that’s what we need in the world. why do adults use violence so quickly? why can’t they use their wisdom (智慧) and talk it over?
adults might say that things are not that easy. but they are the ones that teach us to be kind, not to hurt people, and not to kill. why don’t they act as what they say?
