How Pope Francis reacts to COVID-19

A STEP TOWARDS PEACE How Pope Francis reacts to COVID-19 WE ARE ONE Vida Nueva Un plan para resucitar the antibodies of solidarity Pope Francis novel coronavirus Manheelee IMF HWPL Great Lockdown Gita Gopinath COVID-19

On April 17, Pope Francis shares his vision for Covid-19 aftermath in an exclusive meditation for Vida Nueva, the Spanish religious weekly, titled “Un plan para resucitar” which translates as “A plan to resurrect.”

What he said about the current situation is, “If there’s one thing we’ve been able to learn in all this time, it’s that no one is saved alone. Borders are falling, walls are crumbling and all fundamentalist discourses are dissolving before an almost imperceptible presence that shows the fragility of which we are made.”

The situation is worse than we thought. “The Great Lockdown is the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, and far worse than the Global Financial Crisis [of 2008],” International Monetary Fund (IMF) Chief Economist Gita Gopinath said on the 14th of April.

Is there any way to overcome this situation? In such a crisis situation, the ability of the state or company to deal with the crisis is revealed.
In fact, we usually only think this way, but there’s actually one more.
It’s each one of us.

Francis wrote that the only way to conquer the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is through “the antibodies of solidarity.” This antibody “will break all the fanaticism in which we had immersed ourselves and will allow us to feel ourselves to be the creators and protagonists of a common history and, thus, to respond jointly to so many ills that afflict millions of brothers around the world.”

Also he wrote, “If we act as one people, even in the face of the other epidemics that lie waiting for us, we can have a real impact.” I thought it was very similar to Man-hee Lee, the chairman of HWPL, who always shouted “We Are One!” His influence is powerful.

I think people who change the world think the same. All that remains now seems to be for us to practice those words. We can be cool enough. 🙂

What do you think?

A STEP TOWARDS PEACE Human rights : Let me think for a moment Universal Declaration of Human Rights United Nations General Assembly United Nations UN Charter UDHR Pope Francis milestone human rights false hope All human beings     Maybe you can think a lot. If you see many violations of human rights, you can think ‘Isn’t it just a piece of paper? Help me not to have false hope.’ It is enough to make the angels weep. But if you have been lived without any problems, you can think ‘Isn’t it too obvious? From the time I was born, it was a matter of course.’ It is a really difficult issue. I wonder if we can solve it. Let’s have some coffee and get our thoughts straight. It is not to find the answer. Live with the answer!

Everything is lost in war. Everything is gained with peace” – Pope Francis

The Closing Ceremony of PyeongChang Peace Olympics

The Closing Ceremony of PyeongChang Peace Olympics

  Pyeongchang‘s final night starts with electronic music and a dark-breaking sound of geomungo. The final stage of the Pyeongchang Peace Olympics was a festival that included volunteers as well as athletes. The CNN in the United States praised, “The PyeongChang Peace Olympics will certainly be remembered for a long time.” They focused on the scenes not seen in any other Olympics. It is more than just sports festival. Thomas Bach, the president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), told the crowd: “The Olympic Games of PyeongChang 2018 are the games of new horizons. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for your(Korean President Moon) personal commitment and determination to make these Games so successful in every way.” Moon said, “Here in Korea, we will continue our endeavor to broaden the horizon of peace that began in Pyeonchang.”


What opens up a new horizon?

World Peace Quotes : Peace is not just calm

How was your day?

A STEP TOWARDS PEACE World Peace Quotes : Peace is not just calm World Peace Quotes Pope Francis Mother teresa Margaret Deland Mahatma Gandhi Kurt Cobain Anton Chekhov     I actually can’t sing a song well. So, I don’t know how to relieve stress. Many things happened in the world. There is a cold wanton murder! The resentment festered in victim’s mind. Her family was really more painful. Because they can’t understand anything. That murderer said “I don’t know. Just I’m very angry.” There is a thought offender, not only a personal crime. Ideology and religion can make people to give their life for cause. I know that ‘thinking’ is really important. So I find ‘World Peace Quotes‘ to change the world.
