Modern Day Slavery

Thanks for taking the time to explore the hideous reality of modern day slavery. I can hardly bear to imagine what it must be like to be a small child - some as small as my little girls - removed from family and familiarity, treated violently by my 'owners' and raped multiple times a day by 'clients'. I want to be a superhero and rush to each child this is happening to and rescue them, and hold them, and cry with them, and take them someplace safe and love them.

Here are some good groups fighting slavery which we could join:

This is Jonathan, who has lived all his life in Kosovo. Eowyn & Coco loved his company. My ailment has now been with me for 3 weeks. I just watched http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ihuv5z6nqWw and was much amused. I don't think anybody reads these blogs any more. The only people who comment on mine are Bens and me. Hello!

They've asked me to: "Include your purpose in pursuing graduate study, any research you wish to pursue, and your future vocational goals." Thanks for reading this - I feel honoured by your interest in my life!! I want to write a novel, with beautiful sentences and adroitly crafted chapters. Since preschool I have read voraciously, and appreciate exquisite writing in multifarious forms.
