First of all, I admire you @freemotherearth by telling these stories and it was an interesting read. I can say that I can relate with you. These stories are well alive all around the world (others are even worst). As time pass by I am still in awe and I acknowledge that "everything can happen" and the "possibilities are endless" and most of the time we are always surprised how things gone by. Most of the time things happen that we never expect and not we have hoped for.
