Waiting on the World to Change

All this fighting in the middle east makes me nervous.

Not just because it's sad for humankind...

But also cause my family is extremely close to this!!! Turkey is close to all those wars, actually, and I hate that.

Just look at this map...look at it!

It borders Iran, Iraq, Syria...and is close to Israel and Lebanon. Geeeeeeeeez!!! Can it be in a worse spot? Seriously now.

It's just unnerving for me...cause I love my family in Turkey. And Turkey is a gorgeous place with nice people, I wouldn't want to see anything happen to it.

Soooooo yeah, Turkey was ruthless back in the day with the Ottoman Empire...I know. But it's a fabulous place now. It just has some bad luck with neighbors...

And so I say: Ben Turkiye cok seviyorum.

Which means: I love Turkey very much.
