There’re mistakes that we once did, but can never do now; because we know better. The problem is never with a child who annoys his parent, but with the parent who lashes out or hits at a kid that annoys him.
 
The problem is not so much with the terrorist, but with the one who uses means of terror to stop terrorism. And ends up quadrupling the number that the terrorist killed. He kills the terrorist, his innocent family and friends, and kills his own people. The ones he dearly loves to protects.
 
Where you have weak power destroying tens, strong power destroys thousands. The problem is never with the weak, but with the so strong who use their power to destroy. With the so strong that never use their power to correct the wrong, but rather to multiply the wrong.
 
We never teach any  value to those we assume we’re correcting, except the value; always strike back at those that annoy you. The value of revenge and selfishness. The value of; “you need not change, ‘they’, have to change”. We must be humble enough to recognize that so often, those that do what we perceive to be wrong, or indeed that which is wrong, are only on their journey to spiritual growth, self realization. And so strong to accept that ours ought to be a responsibility of guiding them or supporting them to that growth. Every human soul cries out to bless another. And sometimes, just sometimes, our actions or omissions force others to do wrong.
 
Someone asked me what peace is; peace is the consideration of the view you don’t hold. It’s the acceptance that the other party so much wants what they believe they’re entitled to, just as you want what you believe to be your right or possession. Once you reach this acceptance, you begin to think and act in terms of mutual benefit.  
 
You’ll never know what’s right until you know what’s wrong. And what’s wrong can not be clear to you until you don’t doubt what’s right.
 
We’ve so many problems when our lives are not on purpose. In the end, many problems are created by a man who drives east, west, south and north every time and any time. Because we see too much to be done, and are not decided on what exactly to do, we get overwhelmed and begin to see lots of problems where indeed non exists. Our problem mind begins to see problems and eventually creates them.
 
There is no problem in the world except the way we think. Every other thing we call a problem is just a thought. If thoughts can change, problems can be solved.
