The summer that wasn't

I don't know what happened, must have been the planets. Something was going down in the Summer of 2014. If I say, this summer was one of the most supercharged, violent, unstable and unpredictable summers, many will agree with me.

Not even the FIFA World Cup could lessen tensions around the globe. The tally of Summer 2014 is quite disheartening. Passenger plane shot down over Europe in peace time, Iron Dome in action daily in Israel, human shields formed in the name of ideology,  ISIS beheading children and women on an ongoing bases, civil unrest in Ferguson, and to top it off Ebola is no longer confined to one country only.

It seems, this summer was not a carefree one. It also seems we got a preview what the battle between Good and Evil will look like. I know, I know the world has never been a quite place, but somehow this summer magnified it. Good thing it went by so fast, the summer that wasn't.
