This morning, I received a call from one of my family who live in Solo. He said that her daughter, one of the victims, a bomb blast that occurred in Solo. I heard the news about a bomb blast in Solo. But I did not expect, if one of my family, a victim. Why, this continues to happen. They do violence in the name of religion. Why can not we live in harmony. My family is not the same religion, but we live in harmony, and mutual respect.

Sorry to hear about your family. I hope they get better soon. I dont know why there are wars going on. And like you say in the name of religion. Religion should be about love respect and peace not fighting and killing. One day soon God will put a stop to all that. I pray that day comes soon.

I agree that violence in the name of religion is deplorable and is not the way to win converts.
FYI - "HE" refers to a man or a boy. "Her" is a pronoun that denotes something or someone belonging to a girl or woman.
I do not intend to be offensive but want to help you improve your English and keep your comments from being confusing.

a few more days I'll go to Solo to stay in touch with my family, I am very sad to hear this news. Guard tightened across the critical points, hopefully there will not be anything like this again. There have been many fatalities, why they carry this with religion. Religion leads us to the path of truth and togetherness as well as maintain mutual harmony.

Actually, I do not want to hear news like this. But, I had to hear news like this. I always pray, and hope, there is peace in our country, and no more victims who do not know anything. I'm sorry, because your cousin, a victim. Hopefully things like this, does not happen again.

SOme people have been hating for so long that is all they know. And their egos won't let them think any other way but they are right and every one else is wrong. It is sad and will continue to be like this until these types can find what it takes to have respect and harmoney in their lives.

These people have hated for so long they don't know any other way to be. Their egos won't let them feel that maybe they are wrong either. Until the hating stops and they learn respect for others and can live in harmony there will be no rest. Sad but it will go on until things can change.

That is not a nice phone call to receive! Is your family member’s daughter ok? How badly injured is she? It is so sad and frustrating that these horrible terrorist acts continually occur and the victims are so often innocent peace loving people. I am so very sorry this has happened to your family and I pray that it will not ever happen again and that the girl is ok.

I am also very sad to hear this news. Moreover, one of our families are victims. I can not understand why things like this, should occur. As if, human life has no meaning. Hopefully, God gives punishment to them.

That's really a sad news my friend. I just can't imagine losing a family member or a relative in such a gruesome way of dying. I am really scared with all the terrors happening in this world of ours. It's really not a safe place anymore. I guess, the fights in the name of religion, beliefs and politics is impossible to resolve without real and mutual understanding. It may be hard to achieve but as long as everyone keeps an open mind, then anything can be possible. I know that it's a long way to go but I still believe that hope exists. What happened with the bombing is really tragic and very saddening and all we can really do is pray. My condolences goes out to you and your family.
