The War of the Mind.
You could pick a gun at this hour and shoot a person countless times as you desire, but the single fact remains that you would have killed that same person even before that day. This is what happens when the war of the mind kicks in. It has become the greatest enemy of man in ages past and it seems like no remedy is close. We fight various types of war in life ranging from physical, financial, and spiritual war. In whatever level of war you find yourself, one thing is always glaring and that is; the unhappiness that comes with it. Let us look at the various levels of war and how they affect us.
Physical War
This as you already know is the kind of war that can be seen, felt or touched. For instance, the war between Russia and Ukraine is physical because both parties can feel, see and touch each other. When a missile lands in a Ukraine owned territory, those who are within that region will feel the impact. One big fact about physical war is that it affects all the other forms of war. When your house is hit by a missile and you survived the hit, you will be financially and physically drained. This kind of war leaves a lot of evidence on its part or wherever it's happening, just as we all can see in Ukraine. Another fact about this kind of war is that you know your enemy and your enemy knows you. This makes it easy for you to know how to avoid or defend yourself from your enemy.
Financial War.
This is the war that happens mostly within the corridors of the wealthy. The poor may feel the impact as it goes on within the circles of the rich. Being on the list of Forbes richest people of the world will certainly bring this war to your doorstep. You may not understand that the rich fight among themselves in other to remain there and this war is not fought physically, rather it is fought with money and affluence.
Power as we all know is not complete when it is not backed with a good amount of money. You must have heard or read over the internet how the rich fight by buying off entire shares of a company. They do this because they understand that whoever has the largest amount of share in a firm controls the decision-making process of the firm. I'm sure a lot of us would not mind being in this kind of war, after all, it's all about money and affluence.
Spiritual War
I don't need to talk much about this kind of war because it is known especially in Africa and other parts of the world where magic and witchcraft exist. Although a lot of people do not believe in magic or witchcraft, that does not mean that it does not exist. It is in this kind of war you will hear stories that may sound very unbelievable. Stories of how a person was killed by another just with the use of magical powers abound in our lives today. This is the kind of war that no one wishes to go into because most times you do not know who the enemy is. One fact about this kind of war is that you can't fight it with either of the kinds of war. For you to win or triumph over this kind of war, you must be ready to become spiritual in other to fight it. When you do not know or see your enemy, it is easier for the enemy to hit you where it pains you the most.
In all that you do, you must understand that nothing good comes out of any kind of war. Every war starts with one move or utterance from the other party until it increases. We must be ready to always seek peace instead of war because both parties will always feel the negative effect of war.
Let's give peace a chance in our world.
War Filipino also believe in mythical war, where evil spirits are trying to predict war within the health of humans. I think war is part of natural evolution; even animals from the wild do the same.
