My first post

Salam, hi...
Check this out. This is my first post of art, this what i'd like to call it as poem was originally written by Sylvia Chidi, it's quite simple, understandable and I hope you guys can get the picture of this poem.

IF YOU DON'T TRAVEL

I always marvel
Whenever I travel

Because if you don't travel
and extensively explore
How can you open those awaiting doors?
Mysteries always lie waiting to be unraveled

I travel with my eyes
Watching those silently cry
Asking themselves the question why
Someone left them without saying goodbye

I travel with my thoughts
Abundant knowledge I have found and sought

I travel with my pen
To write about children, women and men

I travel with my voice
Speaking sensibly refusing to induce confusing noise

I travel with my hope
Believing something new will spring into my horoscope
Whether in Africa or whether in Europe
There is always room, there is always scope

I travel to many places
Mix with different culture and races
Identify tribes by their faces
Everyone I always embrace

I travel with or without money
So please listen to my testimony
Every experience is worth life journey

I travel with intensive faith
Lavishing love rather than being defensive with hate

Because if you don't travel
How can you grow?
How can you know,
What is beneath the dust and below the gravel?


Gaza Strip Crisis
Friends, we are all aware of the suffering our brothers and sisters in Palestine have endured over the last 60 years.
The situation has now escalated to crisis point, and over 400 have been killed, not to mention the thousands who have been injured both physically and mentally with the unjust torture they have witnessed.
To all Muslims out there, to unite, to stand together and pray for our brothers and sisters in Palestine. We cannot disregard the power of doa, and in times like this, when we feel we have little or no control, we can turn to The One who has All Control and Power.
