The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine that began in February 2014 has sadly turned into something that ordinary people were so afraid of. Governments decided to get into a bloody fight, selfishly ignoring the well-being of innocent citizens, while focusing on achieving god knows what. All of us who so purely believed that, these days, events like that could've been easily avoided were, once again, proven wrong.

It appears that nothing we do or say can influence the actions of the folks above us, though it doesn't mean that we should tolerate it and wait for the storm to pass. People and politicians are two completely contrasting things that could never be compared, which is why it's crucial to stand and fight this evilness together.

As people of the world, it's important to support our neighbours however and whenever we can. Undoubtedly, at times it might feel like everything is impossible; some folks might get arrested for voicing their support, others might end up dealing with even worse consequences. It's painfully upsetting to think that in 2022, conflicts that put ordinary families at risk are still real, and it all feels like a fever dream that you're trying so hard to wake up from.

Knowing that there're people out there that simply do not care about anything or anyone other than their own power is truly bloodcurdling.

Fighting for the sake of portraying your leadership is the coldest and most inhumane thing one can do. It's simply beyond any belief and impossible to grasp that, in this day and age, country leaders haven't really tried to find a method to solve and communicate without destroying so many lives. It's a fact that our world is, unfortunately, suffering in so many other ways that we've been taking for granted and having folks that, in reality, take over our everyday lives shouldn't even be a real thing.

Bored Panda browsed the internet and collected the most inspiring and powerful art dedicated to Ukraine and its citizens. In these uncertain times, when nobody knows what tomorrow is going to bring, it is significant to show empathy towards those who were affected by the hand of this horrible attack, as together we're much stronger and are capable of putting an end to such an unnecessary but spine-chilling event. It's crucial to believe and stick together, as with love – there'll be peace.

Nobody could ever foresee what the next day, the next month or the next year will bring to us. However – nobody ever "wins" a war, you can't win something that killed thousands of people, or frightened thousands of innocent children. There is only losing. No amount of power can ever justify these horrific battles, and all we can do is fight back – with our voices, with our support and empathy.

War can never be won.
