One death is a loss, and many are mere statistics.

One death is a loss, and many are mere statistics.

When a friend or relative dies, it is a personal loss, and we grieve for a time before gradually returning to normalcy, cherishing their memory. However, when thousands of people die, it becomes mere statistics. We compare the numbers with those of past wars or riots, debating whether the casualties are more or fewer. When a stranger dies, they are often just a number to us, and the world seems to have grown numb to such tragedies. But among those thousands, each individual could represent someone's grandparent, parent, sibling, neighbour, or friend. They are not just numbers.

We are witnessing conflicts between nations, cross-border terrorism, and nations boasting about their growing military power. Tragically, innocent lives are lost, sometimes even before they have a chance to be born. It is shameful that politicians lack the courage to face the battlefield with a weapon in hand, and it is equally disgraceful that organizations invest in research and development for missiles designed to kill hundreds. This misuse of our tax money for violence is a gross failure of leadership.

If we do not emphasise the importance of humanity, love, care, and kindness—regardless of our nationality—these cycles of hatred and enmity will persist. Remember, humanity is the greatest virtue we can possess, even greater than patriotism. Sometimes, blind patriotism can lead us to support our nation without questioning if we are right or wrong.

No war truly ends until our hearts and minds are filled with love and care.
