We are lost souls.. We have not just fallen from heaven,
While we are falling, perhaps we are still lost,
We have become water, we have become flesh, we have become bones
And we are lost.
The one who says 'We found it, now we are' >
We are lost.
Languages have told the story of loss,
Babies who grew up with the lullaby of loss. ,
A song of loss always through the seasons,
Birds, flowers, insects
The clocks are ticking in a lost declaration.
We are lost souls
And our lostness is also lost..
We are lost as long as between eternity and eternity
We are lost, is there anyone who 'remembers'? ?”
Perhaps those who have lost the warmth of a home, the loyalty and bonding of a family feel the feeling of loss the most.
To get lost, to lose direction, is sometimes to lose one's hope for the future, one's idea of who one is, one's joy, one's passion for living, one's desire to be useful, and moving away from the values that guide one's life.
Unfortunately, today, people of many ages are fading away from the stage of life. Unfortunately, whole people are disappearing in front of the eyes of the society (if such a thing exists), young boys and young girls are disappearing in front of the eyes of their families, and children are disappearing in front of the eyes of the public. Unable to find a branch to hold on to, he is dragged along the streets.
The darkness of every disappearance is unique to the forest in which he was lost. The forests of disappearances range from substance abuse to alcohol addiction, from game addiction to porn addiction, from gambling addiction to social media addiction... Perhaps the most painful of disappearances is the one experienced far from the warmth of a family, right next to the evil that roams the streets. Streets are the target area where evil gathers evil for itself. Streets, streets and streets open and vulnerable to prostitution trade, organ mafia, beggar gangs and drug markets those on the street, those living on the street.
It is very sad, but it stands before us as a fact, those who live on the streets pass us by every day, our children.
The things to be done for the streets and for those on the streets will require large-scale projects in themselves. It should be the subject of comprehensive files that are too long to fit into such a small article.
In this article, we are trying to touch upon the question of what can be done to close the door to the street.
In the first verses of the Quran that were revealed, Allah Almighty says, 'We created man from a clot of blood'. Some commentators state that just as the physical body of a human being is created from a relationship, that is, an embryo, the humanity dimension of a person is created and formed from a relationship, a connection. In order for the healthy development of human existence, healthy personality development, and virtues such as self-confidence, sense of trust, and commitment to be formed, we need trusting relationships and hearts that will surround us. The beacon that will guide a growing child and a young person to find their way in the chaos of life and illuminate their path are the hearts that can embrace and contain them with unconditional love and compassion. However, the parents from whom our children could receive the warmth they need most are often lost in completely different forests. They are mostly lost in the depths of social media forests, some among their busy work, some in family intrigues, and some in series and TV programs full of intrigues. As a result of this, as a young person expressed in a graffiti; 'Parents lose their children much sooner than they think.' However, parents realize this loss much later.
Unfortunately, at this point, the dominant view that sees 'the person as the problem' rather than 'the problem as a problem' reveals itself. and labels young people with words such as lazy, naughty, pest, naughty, street child, painter, unemployed. It should be stated here that, in fact, 'there are no problem young people, young people have problems'.
However, as parents of children When we do not recognize their developmental periods, when we do not know their needs in these periods - especially after the age of 11 and during adolescence - when we sometimes set the boundaries we need to protect them very harshly, and sometimes not at all, young people have difficulty coping with their problems. It gets quite difficult. While parents are part of the problem and the solution, they can easily exonerate themselves by making the youngster a scapegoat.
Unfortunately, this and many similar attitudes can lead young people to try the door to the street.
We think that at the top of the list of things that need to be done in this regard, studies should be carried out to tighten the bonds of life of children who have not yet disappeared, regarding priority-risk groups. NGOs and municipalities should lead in this regard.
It is possible to count broken families, families experiencing violence, and families with addictive behaviors among the risky groups.
As a final word, we say goodbye with a saying that has been said for centuries;
'If you look, it becomes a vineyard, if you don't, it becomes a mountain!'
