They're yours,ours and mine! The truth is painful. For us to truly make a difference we need to see the children, hear their cries, feel their pain and see what is happening to them. We need to let them know they are not forgotten. We need to validate their fears, their tears and reach out to them. Only then will we be able to do something about it. We are all part of a valuable force that can break these chains and make a difference.
