Hey Doc

As the clock ticking closer to midnight, I sat in front of the monitor looking back at year 2004. What a year it was, to me personally and to mankind on earth. There are many reasons to celebrate but I would rather celebrating with a somber note. The news in the pass 5 days has been filled with the devastation of the earthquake in Indonesia and the following tsunami that has killed more the 120,000 people in 11 countries. This year was also filled with many terrorist attacks and suicide bombings. The train bombing in Spain and the school hostage in Russia involved many innocent people. The continuing war in Iraq with no ending in sight. 1300 soldiers and an untold number of Iraqis have been killed in the war. Not only that, it alienated our country with the rest of the world. Nothing more tragic then the lost of human lives senseless or not.
I wish we will learn how to respect each other because we all have the rights to live on this planet earth. I wish we will learn how to take care of this planet earth because there is only one.

Farewell 2004, Welcome 2005
