Comparison. could life be changed ?

Life is seconds pass without feeling, you don't feel till it become too late, till now I do not believe that I am entering 20s this make me wonder sometimes not for reason but because I think that I didn't live normal , all the time my country was in war and I didn't feel peace in its real meaning .

Before 30 year Iraq was rich country with oil , Baghdad was the center of knowledge in middle east , there was high buildings and hotels while the neighbouring countries was living in tents in the desert , now everything changed except Iraq still "rich in oil" , now there is people left there big houses in baghdad to save there lives , the prices are extremely high, even the kerosine became rare in winter !! this is and we are the country of oil ..While people of neighbouring countries live now in villas , skyscraper ..
I'm not envying them but I am sad on my country ..

Now we need hope , peace , working , uniting , to make bright future of Iraq
