Stupidly me, ask a friend who is Somali as well, what tribe are they in? I don’t know why I asked, in fact, I don’t even know the difference between each tribes. A friend didn’t answer my question, left me in confusion, and they answered ‘’I wont answer because Somali is at war because of this! We are one nation therefore we are one person.’’ has got me amazed by their answer got me thinking It doesn’t matter what colour you are, religion, background, disabilities, and etc. We are human beings and we must respect each other and love each other.
But honestly, I don’t get this…
When a person come out, that he’s gay, everyone accept him quickly but when a Christian person converted to Islam, it is harder for people to accept him or her. They’re still same person, but just with different beliefs and faith. Why? That is the question. Whatever happens to ‘’no matter what, you’re my friend’’ that got me thinking, will my friend dessert me in my hours of darkness or turn their backs on me if I change a tiny part of me. I think it has to do with the society and time too, as it changes people, we are bound to change eventually anyway.
One Earth. One love. One nation.
