Hello friends from Ebaby,

My name is Sean and I live in the United States.  My wife and I had a conversation this past week that troubled us.  We have only a few friends from other countries but they all live in the U.S.  I found Ebaby to help solve this problem in our lives and to let us become friends with many of the beautiful people from other countries in our world. 

We are here in the U.S. and like most Americans have been content to live our lives being uneffected by the turmoil of political unrest and war going on in countries abroad.   War and hatred is like a plague (sickness) that destroys peoples lives, dreams and culture without apology (saying I am sorry). 

My question to those on Ebaby is this:  How has political turmoil or even war effected your ability to live life, follow the goals and dreams you have?

My desire is that this blog has teeth (is honest about the thoughts and feelings of those who respond).   Please let me know what your reaction to my question is.  I would especially like those from the Middle East to write on this blog. 

Thank you so much for taking time to respond to this blog and saying to the world what you are feeling from your heart.

We live in a Beautiful world of diverse people and culture, Experience it all by finding a new foreign friend today.

Sean

Hello Liloca,Brazil sounds like a beautiful country but with hatred and confusion.  Thank you for sharing what you face everyday in your life.  It is a said thing when drugs and money are more important than safety and peace of innocent people.  I hope that you will continue to share what difficulties people in Brazil face and maybe some of your thoughts on how it can be corrected (fixed).Your English is very good, I had no problem understanding what you wanted to say, keep practicing and it will get better by the day.Send me a request to become friends on Ebaby and I will do the same.Talk to you soon,Have a beautiful day,Sean
