Wake up father
Stop beating your son
To make him a branded man
He is free as a bird
To fly high of the sky
Let him chase a dream

Wake up Mother
Don’t live under the labels
We’re putting you in
No more hiding in the house
Don’t silence the abuse
Howl to the world what’s going on

Wake up brother
Wake up sister
Love and keep love flowing
Teach the children
To not live with hate
And make em chase their dreams

Wake up bus drivers
Wake up old farmers
Wake up lawyers
And the doctors too
Wake up players
Wake up students
Wake up from the slumber
That’s clouding you

Abuse is abuse, no matter where on earth it happens. Needs no translation in order to Bring Awareness to this problem happening globally, right 'under our own roof' and neighborhood, many times.

When you see abuse, Call It! Many times other people don't know what to do, who to call, or even IF their alert will even make any Difference. The vulnerable deserve our protection and help. Even people who are strong, may have an episode where they become an unwitting victim in a circumstance they didn't bring on. This can feel quite demoralizing, and even shatter a normally-strong individual.

It's unique to what happens--- everyone has a weakpoint, even when it's temporary, that can bring you into a place where others have to step in and BE the Friend, the Tribe, the Ones who Represent everything that's Right and Good about being a Human Being on the Planet Earth.

I'm so glad the times are Changing, and that citizens are saying that 'Enough is enough'! No More Abuse. ... We are Leveling our Standing Power. EVERYONE has the Right to Dignity, and Food, and a Home where they can live Unmolested. Everyone needs to have equal opportunities.... in a way that is 'tailored' to THEM.

I just saw this piece of news on Yahoo while I was searching for quote.... http://www.yahoo.com/news/canada-aboriginal-community-declares-suicide-030245174.html

This world needs our COMPASSION, and LOVE which PROMPTS ACTION taken on all behalfs.

The story in question is that my friend met a Countrymen while she was on the bus, and she was hearing that the man was calling a lot of people to get ready to go to the plaza for the protest, and that they have made a lot of things to get the money to make the travel to here, cause they live quite far from the city, and they are doing whatever they can make to make this count, but the media and the goverment are ******* it up badly.

It's quite a thing what's happening here, and I hope things can get better, cause here in Paraguay, things are going to collapse soon if things don't change.
