In a different life it could have been you

When I logged on to one of my favourite blogs, Indigo Blue, today and read what she had posted I had to follow suit. She follows many blogs and one of them is Maryam's My Marrakesh. Maryam is a democracy specialist who is currently in Rwanda, interviewing widows getting their stories of the genocide. I cried as I read them. You cannot imagine the horror that some of these people faced and survived but are left emotionally and physically traumatized.

Visit Maryam's blog to read the stories, and to contribute to a PayPal account on Maryam's blog that is being set up to collect funds for the organization that is helping the widows and orphans...if you would like to help.
