NOW, PAUSE AND THINK
Youth
violence, having so been anatomised/dissected in these series, you would agree
with me that kids and youngsters – ages 11-16 shouldn’t have blood in their
hands, and should never, have to have blood in their hands, for teen years are
years of preparation for that golden future, bright and beautiful!
More,
these ages are become or becoming ages – I want to be; I
want to become ages. In other words, these are seeing, dreaming and
envisioning ages, and must never have to be seen by children and young people
as a period for gladiatorial conquest and barbarous or bestial misadventures
and indulgences, no matter what, and whatever be the reason of the current
endemic gruesomeness in the nation’s streets, alley ways, subways, pubs,
schools, colleges and academies, pedestrian lanes, pathways, river paths,
woods, bus stops, cinemas, churches, train stations, etc, as life is not photocopiable
nor scannable nor replaceable.
Thus,
teen years should be used to think about and do one’s homework/home learning,
studying, reading and sharing with one’s peers about what one has read.
Teens
should be in the libraries reading; receiving enrichment training/coaching in
community academies after school hours or at weekends; in apprenticeship
workshops or at workplaces learning one life skill or another, in addition to
dreaming and thinking of the careers they ‘d like to pursue in future, and not
use this period of lives in predatory activities - hunting for human beings to
murder for whatever the provocation and reason/s
All
teens should occupy their minds with serious things.
Young
people should choose books, and not knives – again, BOOKS, NOT KNIVES!
And
need I remind all of humanity that no human being should ever have, and ever,
ever have the blood of another on their hands for any reasons whatsoever.
Because
life is not like a person photocopying documents or losing their pen, and then
going on to buy another to replace it just as if you lost your bike or scooter,
you can replace either; if you lost a pair of shoes, you can easily replace
them; if your house is razed down by fire, you can either build or buy another
one to replace it; if your car had an accident and got damaged beyond repairs,
you can buy another to replace it; better still, if your car was stolen, you
might be able to recover it through the help of the police; if a tree is cut
down or the whole forests destroyed, you can replenish, by planting new trees
to maintain ecological balance through the instrumentality of the vegeta covers,
especially in this time of global climate change, but a life lost, who can
replace it?
Who
can clone it? Who can scan to reproduce it?
Therefore,
my dear children and young peoples of the world, particularly children and
young people in Great Britain, handle life with care, more so, the life of the
other person as again, you can never replace nor photocopy life.
And
the Third Commandment has not been removed from the Holy Scripture: “Don’t
kill”, warns the scripture, hence I will thus conclude with a common dictum: LIFE
HAS NOT DUPLICATE!
*Concluded.
