Here I am. I communicate my reality to the world.
Do you like my shirt? Can you read words or do you need a picture? How about a picture of a picture? I don't know how to read so I like to look at pictures.
My country has 11.5 million people and maybe 6-10 million mines. Adults say there are 40,000 amputees in my country. Many more have died because we don't have working medical facilities.
Mines are cheap. A mine costs $3.00 to put in the ground and $1,000.00 to take out of the ground. I'm really good at numbers.
Talk to me before you leave trails to explore the forest. It's beautiful and quiet. I know all the secret places.
I showed my picture to a Cambodian man and he didn't like it ;-( They call this denial. He said it gave him nightmares. So it goes.
My village is my world. Where do you live?
Metta.
