THESE ARE OUR PEOPLE! HUMAN PEOPLE!

Wars, persecution, and instability have driven the number of refugees to historic highs. Rather than offer protection, many countries have erected new barriers, leaving many of today’s refugees in protracted limbo.

Now lets see where did I see it…..
Ah yes here it is…. in the great book of knowledge it says….
Wisdom is the greatest thing one can pass on to another….
Unconditional Love and Forgiveness are two of the Wisest teachings from the Great book of Knowledge.

Please remember today to Love And Forgive all your brothers and sisters across the globe unconditionally today and always.

In a world where hopelessness is starting to give hope a run for its money.

We live in a world where hope is starting to look bleak to many. and considering hope is invaluable when it come to a humans will to survive, i feel like i must be very mindful of what i say and how i say it to others in order to maintain a sense of hope within myself and for others.

Things to consider.

1. Let go of any ideas/thoughts/ belief you have of “I Can’t'” and never say it to yourself again,  and start building your relationship with your higher power immediately, surrender is vital in all walks of life

2. Relax and breathe, allow for the calm peace and quiet between the words as you speak to people, more often than not, less, precision, objective, clear communication with people will be received and heard more completely by your audience.    

3. Know your demographics, its really important to speak in the most relative manner you can to those listing so your message can be received and there’s can be heard.  

4. Find your truth in this life, your top three core values, don’t worry to much about beliefs they will change to much over time, and then just own it! embody it every day every moment of your life! know who you are so when you speak people take you seriously and to heart.

5. Be slow to speak, quick to listen, let go and let God, stay humble and reverent, always a student as well as a teacher of the truth, remember that you are an instrument through which great things can and will happen if you get out of your own way enough to allow for it to happen.

I feel that the United Nations, should be made to do, what it was created for.  To help people of the world, that are in need.  Syrians, and all others need to be made to stand on their own feet. Examples: South Korea, Vietnam, and Cambodia.

• I feel like they can help by trying to take in however many refugees as they can without it messing up their economy. By doing this, they are slowly helping the problem by directly taking the affected refugees and giving them a safe haven away from the everyday problems they deal with. Also if the country is willing, they could employ some of the refugees to give them work and give them the ability to make money for their families. They could also just give either financial or military support to the countries that need it.

The the minimum level of support is needed, the question is What support is need are we talking about resources such as water, food and shelter.

I don’t know I’m up enough about Western European countries, but i would think it would be an equal amount.

The situation would depend are we helping refugees once they reach our country and security processed. Then start humanitarian efforts.

The US was authorized for 30,000 refugees to enter in year 2019 and we have 8 months to see a success story.

I believe that the U.S. and Western European countries should offer financial, military, and legal support to the Syrian refugees. If I had the final say, I would ask these countries to pitch in around five to ten million dollars each worth of aid a year. This would be allocated for necessities, such as safety, shelter, and nutrition. Enough assistance to provide Syrians with these amenities on a daily basis should be granted. The U.S. and Western European countries should also provide a legal, affordable, and timely means of escape from their home country. By doing this, these countries would be setting aside money towards a more long-term solution, while keeping more money within their own borders.

When we look at our funding of the U.S. , I honestly can say that at least half the support of is necessary but our full support is too much. I just think with the issues that we have not just in our state, but within the whole country… we could use that to help our own country. In terms, I can say that “yes” its a good thing were helping these countries. It’s good that were lending them a hand to help them get out of this turmoil, but we can’t “baby” these countries. I think it’s up to them to use these resources that we are providing them to become a whole again. I think by funding this much aid, were able to be on world peace terms. We fund you and you repay us by being able to creating peace with us and other countries who are in need. I just think that the U.S. should really solve our economical problems before we take on others. We should focus on shelters, schools, our own debt and other interior problems we face within our country. When I researched our funding of the U.S., we funded Jordan back in 2016 at least $1.2 billion from the United States. This only accounts for some of our budget that we give to other countries.

First, the value of those we save must be at least equal to or grater than the amount of money it will cost to save them… then perhaps we shall even narrow it down, are the people we are keeping from drowning even the right people? interestingly enough, 10,000.00 people just died while we were setting out guidelines…..At least now there are few to worry about !?!

Bottom line for me is people are drowning at sea, lets doe everything humanly possible to help save them, regardless, knowing that there are those who will be the ones who take action, and those who insure that our actions do cause more problems as a result. Regardless of what a human looks like or sounds like the cry for help from a drowning human sounds the same to my ears, as i have already jumped overboard with a life preserver and a rope tied to the ship.

I am in the middle of the road on this issue. I understand we are a powerful nation with the resources to help others, but it’s hard for me to accept sending money, military, food and other aide when we so desperately need it here in own country. Unless we have a perfect checks and balances system in place to make sure the aide is actually going where it should, it would seem wasteful. We learned in North Korea, the aide they received wasn’t making it to it’s people…why wouldn’t that happen again? How do we prevent precious resources from being held from the needy?

I can’t imagine how I would feel if this was happening here, probably just as desperate as the refugees from Syria.
