How would you describe your engagement between the worlds within and around you?

1 Answer

Answer :

While doing my best to live the present realities of my life, finding a job after I just lost one I had for 9 years, supporting and helping loved ones survive, pursuing dreams…I still make time to know and have an opinion on what’s happening in this country and in the world. I cant say Im doing anything for my immediate community except maybe throwing trash in the right receptacles but yeah, I do my best to be aware and share, exchange ideas with net communities like here in Fluther. If there is a global social website for muslims and non muslims who would promote understanding, friendship and dialogue ( maybe there is ) Id like to join. I believe a lot of anger and cruelty can be calmed down if humans could stay connected and have time enough to understand, even forgive each other. Instead of meeting for the first time guns already drawn.
