 Everyone is excited about the World Cup that is held these days. The fans waited for 4 years and the players are also excited about the matches they have to win. 32 countries are trying their best to win the World Cup for the nation. In every soccer match, all the people from the world can’t put their eyes off the ball. One goal, one ball depends on the cheer and disappointment though the countries. The players and the audience become one with soccer, with one ball. Even the  other countries that do not attend the World Cup, also joins the soccer together because they are curious of the world news and the winner of the Cup.

 Because of the World Cup, people infuse patriotism into the heart of their nations. The entire topic is about soccer when they talk. Studies even show us that at the 2002 World Cup over 30% of the crime rate have been decreased. This is what World Cup made us. It made us feel pride of my nation and have patriotic spirit.

 The reason people can become though soccer is that they have the same goal. For the reputation and the fame of the country, soccer players are doing their best and the crowd goes wild for the victory. Even if the team wins in the match or not, they already are a team that we call ‘won’. It is because the whole nation moving with one accord means they already got together and this means a lot. The process itself means victory to the nations because that they became one.

 Like the result we see in the World Cup, what will happen if we gather our strength and hearts to one. What kind of result will that make? Anything can happen if we have this kind of hearts to achieve something. What if we work for peace in this way? Achieving with passion and the will to achieve it? Then peace will already have come to our world. But why did this not happen?

First, peace is a thing that is invisible. If we can see it like we see the soccer ball, and see the results right away, people think that there is a progress. But peace is an assignment that all the people have to solve. Not only one or two people, but also all the people have to make and fight for peace.

Second, peace is a thing that can happen after a continuous effort. Many peace leaders worked for peace and to achieve it, and still we have to work to achieve it. Not only this, there are other lots of reasons. But the important thing that we have to think about is we have the possibility to make peace happen. We have seen people become one and untie with soccer in the World Cups. So we can make it happen if we only have the hearts and minds to achieve it. Many say that peace is hard and difficult to achieve. But if we look it the bright side, there are always possibilities and it is true that we have the potential to do it.
