War - A Personal Response

War – A Personal Response

‘I am hungry, brother.’ ‘Oh shut up! We have no more food to feed you, find the food yourself!’ This photograph gives me this first impression when I see this photograph. Some thin children are standing in the forest, this indicates that they are homeless and have to seek a shelter for themselves. They look desperate, their faces look pale too.

The children are lack of nutrition, they are quite pathetic as they are as thin as bamboos. According to their characteristics, I know that most of them have been affected by the disease. The war happened around their homeland has been the main cause of their homelessness, so they have to be outside as they have no home. Their mother and father are not present, most probably they are either called to war or have been killed. We should feel pity for them but not ridicule at them.

The war has caused the immense destruction in the country. In this photograph, not only these children are homeless, so do the rest of the children who can be seen not far away from these children. They are quite poor too, they have no clothes to wear, no food to eat and no shelter to live in. Their bodies do not develop well, and they will face a lot of health problems even the war has been put to an end.

We should be grateful for what we have now around us. Some people are not rich, and some people are rich, but we must know that there are more victims in some countries who suffer more pains as compared to ours. They even cannot afford their basic needs to survive, they have to depend on their fates. They will suffer more, or they can have peace and find their parents, they have no choice unlike us who live in such peaceful country.
