The point of no return

For over a year I do not see the news or read newspapers regularly. I need to stay away from this constant metralleo dire news about the injustices, cruelties and horrors that happen in the world.

Many people criticized me my position, people who say you need to know the truth, you have to be informed. And I wonder, Why? Why is my heart with the things I hear? Who benefits as I know, if like many others I can not do, I do nothing about it?

last November threw out a 20minutes I found myself in the staff room. On the cover had the headline, referring to the invasion of Morocco Western Sahara: Hidden in Laayoune : "At night you can hear the torture" I could not help imagine and feel an immense sadness and deep sorrow, and mourn. It is very, very frightening.

understand that we aware of the terrible things that happen on the planet we live, we can not live in the world lollipop. But there comes a point where our mind can not take much horror, so much pain, and little by little we are anesthetized; normal, it is a defense mechanism. And this is not good. I think we should strike a balance, and I think it's easy.

For all these reasons I'm only minimally informed about the wave of rebellion that is happening in the Muslim world, but what little I get I find creepy. Creepy one hand and extremely heroic and hopeful for another. But I have so far, so remote is for my life quiet neighborhood that I could hardly imagine what could drive entire populations of people into the reckless courage to take to the streets, knowing they could lose their lives for justice. A few days ago I got the chilling explanation:

We have reached the point of no return. We know that if we do not die in the streets, kill us in our houses.

few days I've been I can not remove this from the head. Neither the chest and stomach.

And I feel that there is much I can do about it. But I decided long ago that when I had this feeling of helplessness and powerlessness, to avoid "paralysis" had to find out although only the minimum if I could do, and do it. So I wrote this post.
