PEACE- OUR RESPONSIBILITY - (A SHORT NOTE)

©® Santosh Kumar Biswa (Bhutan) 


The moment we think about peace, we actually are thinking about bringing oneself into peace through the transmutation of our own behavior, character, and the way we represent ourselves to the world. It is after we change, we act to elevate it to the world at large. Hence, self-reflection and self-rectification is necessary before we put in our actions for peace. The people around us will be watching us at all times and we should give them, through our legislation, the objectives we have in our minds. 

Why is there war on the face of the earth? Why do people want to obliterate each other just for their own good? It is all because they are desirous, hungry for power and position, and they want to remain concentrated on the world. Is that what it's all about? Do we learn from our religion to hate people and to kill? No, religion doesn't because we entirely know it well. Where are we missing? What went amiss? And what is my role in this world to restore it a peaceful place to live? should be our concern and of course to make meaning out of life.

Education has not changed them as a result of influences in their lives of others who are wicked. Are we born vicious? No, I guess not. So the question like, "Who created them to be bad?" ought to be our concern. It is us, because we have not succeeded in giving them a better education and better life values.

Such people do not value humanity because having power in their hands, they have not realized the pain and experience it brings. It is difficult to change these people because their hearts had already become like a rock that is hard. Thus, we should stop creating such people.

Those who are in this mission should therefore transform themselves first and then their families by making life worth living so that what they see and hear does not alter them, but that they become the strong lover of peace. 

Every person in this world has their role to play, the role of transforming people to peace and the role of educating people to peace that the coming generation may live peacefully, free from chaos and hatred because they are our children and grandchildren.

Let us strive, work for good cause and never yield.

THE CORRECT WAY OF WRITING DATES

THE CORRECT WAY OF WRITING DATES ©® Santosh Kumar - Bhutan Often we neglect to write dates correctly. It so falls out because we are carefree about life or we don't bother about correctness. WRONG WAYS OF WRITING DATES 1. 20/12/2019 2. 20-12-2019 3. 20.12.2019 4. 20th December  2019 5. December 20th, 2019 All the formats given above are incorrect. Some of the reasons are explained as below: A. 20/12/2019 This type of writing date is incorrect because the main function of  slash (/) Is to state "or" when we try to offer options. By composing in this form we are actually trying to say 20 or 12 or 2019 like an option in any Multiple Choice Questions. Thus, avoid using in this form. B. 20-12-2019 The use of hyphens (-) Or minus (-) while writing date is incorrect. It is because the hyphen is used to either join words or to identify different syllables in a word and minus sign is used to subtract numbers which we are not doing while writing date. Also learn
