If you had one gift to give to yourself, what would it be?

At my 21s I found
the answer for me. Every day, every minute , every second in our life is precious
and nothing compares to one beautiful gift: Peace.
When you are peaceful, you are able to think clearly, to control your negative
emotions, to live in a free way, to love yourself and your brothers. In our
country from little age we are taught to dream every moment about peace, but
we are not taught what to do to find this wonderful and unforgettable miracle
called peace.
In a country, peace is a term that most commonly refers to an absence of
aggression , violence or hostility. But I think that peace isnt the absence of
violence but rather the presence of justice. We can raise our own peace on many
things, starting with love and finishing with culture. However , today , we face a
lot of obstacles that put us in danger and destroy our peace. Terrorism, social
inequality, economical problems, abuse of power from political class, everything
that is created by a human being , which destroy other human beings , fight with
our happiness and unfortunately , somehow wins the battle.
In Moldova 30.5% of population takes part of different ethnic minorities groups
like : Ukrainian , Russian, Bulgarian and Romanian etc. For many years we have
a big conflict between the pro-Russian and pro-Romanian groups that create a
lot of protests, misunderstandings between people and sincerely talking we face
with this conflict every day!
When I studied about Multiculturalism , I was inspired by the idea that it is
possible to make the interaction and communication between cultures more
peaceful and real and made me think that it is possible in our country too.
Multiculturalism is a stat policy of Azerbajan and it has become a way of life of
the republic ensuring mutual understand and respect for all identities.
In a multicultural society all the citizens of the country have equal rights in
developing their culture, language, traditions, ethnic and religious values, in
opening national schools, in issuing newspapers, journals, and so on. Respect
and tolerance for national minorities has played a vital role in the development
of the country from antiquity to the modernity. Azerbaijan has made a concerted
effort to create and foster the necessary political and social conditions for
developing and strengthening the countrys traditions of multiculturalism and
tolerance. Time and again, Azerbaijan has demonstrated that harmony is
possible and issues can be resolved without resorting to violence or strife.
We can denote a lot of reactions to the diversity of cultures in a country , such
as isolationism, assimilation, and apartheid. Despite of it, in my opinion
multiculturalism is the only way to make peace and tolerance in a country with a
diversity of ethnic minorities. For me Multiculturalism in Azerbaijan and Baku
process is a model , i think that it could be a very smart decision for solving a lot
of problems in my country! It creates favorable conditions for the development
of society. We need something that will calm down us and will make an equal
condition for creating, raising and living in our society. I hope to learn more
about this way of life and this way of seeing the world . All the conflicts that are
in our country are made by our political class for dividing people on groups,
becouse if we were toghether our power could be bigger, they are just afraid of
us. But if people will start to study about the multiculturalism , they will
understand how powerful they can be , being peaceful with their brothers.
When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know
peace. Jimi Hendrix
