We know that. And that is part of the pain, too: knowing that you can do so little. I can't go to Palestine and stop bullets for Palestinians, either, and that saddens me. What I do realize, though, when I think about it is that the work of bringing awareness to others is probably the only thing that could, possibly, in the long run, make a difference. If everyone on this forum went out and started campaigning, digging, whatever, they would be deep-sixed like so many others, in one way or another. A dead martyr is no good to anyone. But we can keep hammering away at the awareness factor and we can try to work out strategies. Perhaps others with more resources and different position will wake up thanks to something someone here says or does, and do something more dynamic.
I do know that Laura. I think it is wonderful what has been done here. All I am really trying to say is that most of the people who need it most will never have access to this work. Between the emotional trauma and lack of education etc, it is almost impossible for them to benefit form this. Heck, I do not know how I made it, as statistically I should not be here. I wish I knew how to take all that you have done and make it workable in video format, including the help from the psychology books.
