User blog:Spazerz/The Tragedy of the Balkans


 * sigh*

THis is a thought i've had in mind for a very long time now, one that i share with you today.

The Tragedy of the Balkans and it's irreversible scars.

If i could describe the Balkans in one song it would be this

It's sad, has a dark tone to it, and very gloomy

unfortunately this is the only description i can give of this region.

As many of you know i'm part Balkan and ofcourse i don't intend to start a political firefight in this, i do not intend to put blame on anyone or fault anyone here, this is just to show whats happening in this region of the world

If you are atourist and go to hotels in (for example) Croatia or Montenegro, you will most likely will have a nice summer vacation no?, we'll that is looking at the Balkans, but if you SEE the Balkans, it's a different story.

The region is wrapped upp in what i would like to describe as a dark shroud, a dark shroud of hatred, grief, gloom, sorrow and loss

And most of it is thanks to it's history, the Balkans imo have always suffered the worst of what the world could throw at it, all the time they have to endure war, persecution, famine and countless other horrors. THey have done so throughout history and do so till this very day,  in the countrysides of Bosnia, Croatia and Serbia  you'll see alot of Graves, marking the resting place of Mothers, Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Friends and even entire Families lost in the Yugoslav wars. (For Example)

I just wish the people of this Region could catch a break for once, really i do, it's just so tragic and sad to see this region and it's people suffer like this. Worse still is that it won't get better, ever. This region is doomed in an endless cycle of wars, famines, hatred and loss.

But still i hope God will clear the darkness and bring forth light one day
