i have minor breakdown usually once a week. and there are times. rare ones i have a complete meltdown. the last time was in matrics when i was doing this thing on rape. and incest. my research was extensive. my attachment on this issue is deep and profound. here is a story for you. a child of 8 years old was raped one night by a string of men. all her relatives. uncles and father and brother. that night was not the first and would not be her last. what was different was that night was her birthday.
a man was convicted of incest. he described it as taking a bite from the fruit of his labour. literally. he was the one bringing her up. watching her grow. invested in her. he should be able to take a first taste.. this bastard was hospitalized by a female officer upon giving that statement to the media. kudos for her
the horrific of it all.. what is this world coming to? forget the environment. where is the fucking humanity?
that is beside the point. i remember upon finishing the work i was so discouraged that i stop functioning. i skipped a few classes. i withdraw with the tragedies playing in my head. and time finally pick me up. and i moved on.
now again i m faced with this research. having to read and deal with it... where is the fucking humanity??
