The youth peace march in Pakistan detailed in my previous post was attended by both Muslim and Christian children. Such efforts are a real beacon of hope for the people living in the existing political and social turmoil. Hearing of such efforts is a refreshing change to the negative stories that have resonated from Pakistan of late. I am really inspired by this work that Bethak-NGO and Shahzad Francis have undertaken to espouse community cohesion. A forward thinking organisation that can overlook the recent persecution enact holistic community projects like this, deserves our recognition and applause. I just hope others recognise the need to retain the principle of love that is needed, if we are to get a positive solution to our campaign for peace in Pakistan.
