disturbed.
After just finishing a mini tv series on human trafficking, I’m sick to my stomach and highly disturbed about the whole topic. I haven’t felt this anguished, indignant, frustrated, and powerless in a long time.. though my own feelings are nothing close to the pain and suffering of real victims. I can’t even begin to imagine what they go through. To have their hopes and dreams dashed, their past erased, their futures bleak, their present a living hell… it’s just too sad. In the past, I’ve often daydreamed about how it would be like to run away and live a different life. For trafficked victims, it’s a terrible reality.
“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy” Proverb 31:8

This is just one of the infinite problems and struggles that we have in our world today, which makes it even worse. Time to find any means of contributing to the cause, and join the fight.
