Whilst understanding is still way beyond our grasp at this stage, I applaud you for what you are doing for the innocent victims. So many of us (me included)seem to think that our struggle to get through the day is all that we need to think about. Wonderful people like you (a wingless angel) make us stop and realise that our struggles when pitted against real suffering are trivial to say the least. Thank you from the bottom of my heart just for being you.

Great that you take the time out to write these words and remind us of what is important and where we are. It resets our world as we easily lose sight of the world outside our own circle. Keep up the great work! Steve Good on you Cate. Great that you take the time out to write these words and remind us of what is important and where we are.

Your efforts may not be able to save every child, but without them many more would suffer. I agree that, although killing is killing and as such is inexcusable, we tend to focus on the killing itself and not the reasons behind it. We also have a tendancy to ignore the deaths and atrocities suffered by people in other countries and races, at the hands of 'civilised' western governments. There are always two sides to a story. Good luck on the journey. I think sometimes we just have to focus on what we CAN do rather that what we CAN’T do.
