Never follow violence to show ur patriotism.

A girl sitting was sitting on a rock of kargil with her hands on her face.Those hands were wet because of her tears. These tears were bought in her eyes because of violence done for the patriotism. She lost her father in the war between pakistan and india. Do u think this is patriotism? I don't think so. Patriotism means strong love for one's country. We don't need to show it to others by distroying them in wars and arms race. Our history has proved that violence has never been good for the country. As our ancient ruler Ashoka tried to expand his rule by violence, his rule didn't last for long. But when he followed the preachings of budha his religion was followed by the counties of far east. Many people say that violence is the last step of patriotism. I think it is wrong to say that because we can have peace meetings among countries. What do we gain from violence?Destruction, lose lives of so many innocent citizens? I don't see any benefits of this violence.

If u go on fighting, one day the whole world will be distroyed. Then whom r u gonna show the patriotim for? For the remaining oceans, aquatic live?

So i think we should not follow the path of violence because violence in the name of patriotism is not justified.

What stayed with you?

A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.
