Disgusting...

Disclaimer: the video at the bottom of this story linked is disturbing... it left me wordless (which doesn't happen often), disgusted and feeling helpless in the fight for these little girls. how do you break a disgusting "hundreds of years old" tradition?! if you have not yet guessed i'm speaking of child brides, it's basically legal slavery and makes me quite sad. the video at the end of the article is a mini-documentary about 10 minutes long. i don't usually bring the ugly parts of our world to this little web space of mine, I much prefer happiness, humor, color, nature and most of all Loved & Happy Children that are allowed to be children... if you can find a way to help these innocent souls please do and pass it on (to me as well), Thank You.
