Hi James, thank you so much for diving into a matter close to my heart. I have witnessed women rise and fall and rise again. And I am taken by their boldness for hardly ever giving up.

The pain is colossal worldwide and is further fueled by grotesque aggression, leading to more and more of the same.

Afghanistan remains an incredible experience deeply ingrained in my heart. A beautiful country drowning in despair that the Western world has fueled. No war leads to peace. Sadly, I come from a country that takes a different stand on this.

We need to hold up the sky together. Only then do we stand a chance.

Blessings from New Zealand!
