As I am about to have my evening prayers with my family, I learned of the death of Kieth Absalon, 21 year old FEU football player who died in Masbate from a landmine as well as the countless deaths in the ongoing civil war in Myanmar.
It saddens me of the numerous senseless deaths across the world of our youth, our future.
I ask that today, we all come together and pray for peace. Peace in the Philippines, in Myanmar and across the world.
I remember a portion of the lyrics from John Lennon’s song, Imagine:
Imagine all the people
Livin’ life in Peace.
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Today, I ask you join me and let us dream together and pray for our world to be at peace and to be as one.
