Life's experiences can make you bitter, hateful, resentful or cynical
if you let them. It's even worse if you trying to build a relationship
with the opposite gender and you already had some share of
disappointments in your life.
Sometimes it's good to go through
all those things for some individuals, because sometimes you decide
there and then that "I wouldn't never put anyone through what he or she
put me through. " .
And sometimes it's not good at all for others
because they can decide that "I will never let anyone put me through
this again, therefore I will hurt them before they hurt me" and they
just do that. Hurt or hurting people hurt people,
Honestly isn't that what life is all about? Maybe the best way to to label that is experience.
Unfortunately the Media, and Government, which influence the majority of
the population around the world, are now all riding on the bandwagon of
combating "sexual abuse"which mainly focusses on celebrities, the
Catholic Church and most recently NGO's like Oxfam.
Obviously it is important to combat sexual abuse, but it certainly
should not be on top- of the list of all the other horrors the world is
facing like war, poverty and the causes of mass migration, or weapons
sales.
The number of people displaced from their homes due to conflict and
persecution last year exceeded 60 million for the first time in the
United Nations’ history, a tally greater than the combined populations
of the United Kingdom, or of Canada, Australia and New Zealand, says a
new report released on World Refugee Day today.
The Global Trends 2015
compiled by the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)
notes that 65.3 million people were displaced at the end of 2015, an
increase of more than 5 million from 59.5 million a year earlier.
The tally comprises 21.3 million refugees, 3.2 million asylum
seekers, and 40.8 million people internally displaced within their own
countries.
Measured against the world’s population of 7.4 billion people, one in
every 113 people globally is now either a refugee, an asylum-seeker or
internally displaced – putting them at a level of risk for which UNHCR
knows no precedent.
In the past years Syria, Afghanistan and Somalia produce half the
world’s refugees, at 4.9 million, 2.7 million and 1.1 million,
respectively.
Colombia in Latin America had the largest numbers of internally displaced people
(IDPs), at 6.9 million, followed by Syria’s 6.6 million and Iraq’s 4.4
million.
While the spotlight last year was on Europe’s challenge to manage
more than one million refugees and migrants who arrived via the
Mediterranean, the report shows that the vast majority of the world’s
refugees were in developing countries in the global south.
In all, 86 per cent of the refugees under UNHCR’s mandate records
were in low- and middle-income countries close to situations of
conflict.
Nearly 1/2 of the world's population — more
than 3 billion people — live on less than $2.50 a day. More than 1.3
billion live in extreme poverty — less than $1.25 a day. 1 billion
children worldwide are living in poverty. According to UNICEF, 22,000
children die each day due to poverty.
Like it or not, dear feminists, you might find the sexual harassment a terrible crime , so do most most of us, but there are also other crimes, sometimes must worse than sex abuse.
Harvey Weinstein, one of Hollywood’s most revered moguls and influential
kingpins, who has been sexually harassing and abusing women for nearly
30
years.is a terribly sad case but in reality that is a drop of water on a
hot plate, compared to the results of wars and proxy wars, or poverty
around the world.
Unfortunately those horrific events hardly ever get the attention they
deserves because those problems are usually the the result of our own
governments deeds and actions.
"We the people" are really the only ones who can do something about
it, this destructive policy of wars has to stop and we should not get
side-tracked by the smoke-screens our Governments and media are
applying to divert our attention.
