That's naturally the way they can smile...The freshly trained officers unveil their readiness. healthy, happy, and ready ... so youthful that full of vigor. I can see ... senior officers ... their faces tell that they are full with experiences. They are just invincible cos' they are for a just cause... and so courages that do they never mind the outnumber. Indeed, they are the most experienced soldiers in the world. Everyone knows that.

And above all, the trees are greener, and the mountains are pituresque. So green that our spirits dwell there... we were happy only where our spirits live ... dreams always bring us back to the land we were born. The rivers and the animals enjoy themsleves. The land is so precious that make the other jealously come and loot the land. The sacred land is worth protect at any cost.

May the force of our people from everywhere be with you forever, Karen land!

Morr y' tho duu marr nay orr kae`, nerr du nerr darr.

And THANK YOU for the documentary, Going Home.

Unknown said...: Going home Karen blog is very good and I hope it could help people like me and many others who are working or living along the Thailand-Karen Country border to start going home and help rebuild our nation. I wish I can go home a long time ago but I do not have chance because of uncertainity and do not see the Karen have a strong network from within our Karen State and outside of our Karen State. Lets rebuild our connection and make it strong and lasting, so that it will be the strength and protection to all the Karen People. Saw Richard; February 17, 2010 at 7:37 PM

WELCOME

Welcome to Going Home Blogspot!

The idea of Going Home Where We Belong comes from those who have been away from a place considered home, a place we belong to and a place we feel warm to be at. We believe that everyone shares this common feeling about home although we may understand ‘home’ in different ways.

With the three main objectives – to share, to learn, and to bond – we created this program so that everyone away from home can take part. We hope to be able to carry out this program annually, especially with the intention to bring together all Karen/Karenni students and youths and help them organize summer trip to go home where we belong.

And, this program welcomes anyone who would like to join. There is no formal procedure as to how you can join. The following is a few questions if you are thinking to join:

1) Are you willing to do what you can for your people and for your country?
2) Are you willing to contribute to the struggle of your peoples byway of donating books and other educational supplies? This is especially for our children, young students, who are fleeing from the Burmese soldiers (Yes, I mean SPDC soldiers!), hiding, and going to school at the same time so that they can at least read and write.
3) Are you willing to invest your time (summer) and your money (for your airfare) in order to be a part of a greater struggle of your people for freedom and peace? This may sound big, but please remember many of our people are sacrificing their lives.

Generally, if you can answer yes to all the above questions, you are pretty much prepared to join Going Home program. Please note that we do not question whether you have any skill or ability to do anything, for we believe that everyone of us have unique talents and skills and we each can do many things – big and small – to help others.

The great American civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr. said: “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” Let us do anything we can in defense of justice – for the Karens in particular and for Burma as a whole. After all, we rise as one nation and we will fall as one nation, for we all share the stake in this country we so much love.

Please feel free to contact our coordinating team with any questions, ideas, and suggestions you might have, either to join or to better the program.

Thank you very much.
