I’m angry. Not able to sit down and stay still angry. This isn’t me. I don’t do anger. I do annoyance at times but I don’t do anger.
Except for sometimes. Today is sometimes.
Today I need to take parts of the world apart and put them back together in a different way. Today, I need to rip some people from the places where they have chosen to be, pull them apart and force them to see. Today, I need to be everywhere. I need to be there. I need to be there where a child is having their hope and trust destroyed. I need to be there where I can step in and stop it. I need to be there to prevent the hurt and the shame. I need to be there to stop the manipulation and training that leaves a person unable to talk about their own self. I need to be there so that no-one feels so confused and alone that they shut their own soul out. I need to be there.
Today I need to re-make the world so that children are safe. Today I need to remake the world so that even a thought of abusing a child would leave a person retching in horror instead of justifying their harm. Today I need to make the right support there for when it is needed. Today I need to make people believe, to make people listen instead and to make people know. Today I need to be there.

I understand this anger. I have a very similar anger, for many reasons. Sometimes, it’s either be angry or shut the world away. xxx
Thank you, Malin. I normally focus on making a difference but I needed to express this. Xxx
I feel your anger. I’m with you on making the world a safe place for children, for people to see, for people to be aware, for people to believe. My vanilla Facebook has a similar message today. I need people to understand.
Hugs to you, Honey!
