Saturday 1st, October 2005. Three bombs rocked the peaceful island of Bali, in Jimbaran and Kuta. The people and economy are just beginning to be recover from the senseless and brutal bombing not 2 years ago in the Kuta district. The future of the world looks bleak with man's inhumanity to fellow man.
Having visited Bali earlier this year in May and having emersed in the beautiful and peaceful heritage, my heart cries for the thousands of Balinese who will have to endure further hardship that looms ahead. No tourist means no income to buy food to feed their family.
Shame will befall those that were responsible
The blood of the innocent will burn in their hearts
The cries of hungry children will haunt their dreams
There will be no silence for the curses will howl in their ears
What will they answer when God questions "Why?"
Bali will recover. The people are resilient. The world will not cow to despicable acts of violence. Justice will eventually prevail.
