Peace is necessary. When culture and identify makes us, as human beings, drive against each other, then its useless to possess it. Culture is uniquely relevant to identify our region, our language, our religion and our customs. The right minds and the right hearts need to be in the right place and time for collaboration to reach multicultural sustain. We know that both sides have bled, bled enough; the moment will be right if we all consciously look forward and realize that the past only delivers painful memories, but the future, hopes and furthermore, possible solutions.
