A Helpless Nation

At some point in our lives we abandon our hopes, and sadly many Somalis have abandoned their hopes and aspirations for conflict free Somalia.

I have seen many people, even those around me, invest and make new identities here. Somalia to them is a distant land where their parents send couple hundreds every month. They’re not even eager to get a glimpse of Somalia anymore – I’m not eager myself to see war pictures, and the documentations of the many calamities that take place there.

We can’t help this land, the land and its inhabitants have slipped into an eternal coma, where there is life momentarily, and where death lurks in every corner in every form, this is Somalia. The same thing that divides and kills, also sustains lives – let us cure our permanent disease, our AIDS = QABIIL. Is that even possible?
