.If you ever get rid of that icon, can I have it? It rocks.
Actually, it was made for me by my dear friend ponders_life and so... no, I'll not be giving it up...sorry. But, she will do Icons for folks... usually in return for a donation to her fav. charity.

Well, the story is far too long and complex to be told here. But in short, whenever a valuable commodity is discovered in Africa by Non-Africans, the Native people are forced off their land... and are then often forced to work in horrid and dangerous conditions to retrieve the precious commodity. Gold and Diamonds are the worst examples of this in Africa. But other things, like Tee Tree Oil have similar "bad human rights records

A sad truth...you can't save someone who doesn't want to be saved. But at least you kept her from driving drunk that night, and protected all the other drivers on the road as well.
My father has (is still) struggled with alcohol abuse. (Both my parents would disagree, but my dad use to lie about not drinking, after just a few beers there is no body home to talk too, And I’m not talking about the small beers he always buys bigger in volume. Mostly he drinks a lot of nips, and wine. And has shown multiple personalities through drinking. Sometimes hell be happy as a clam, sometimes hell be really depressed.) He’s not as bad as this girl is, and I know a few other friends that will drown there sorrow with alcohol. I myself have made some poor decisions do to drinking at a young age. It's kind of sad how society completely ignores, or just doesn't think much of how dangerous alcohol really is

Now I've heard that the diamond trade has damaged the lives of Africans and I always wondered how. What exactly is the story there?

Heh, perhaps. Although these days, I think it more accurate to say
"I led an interesting life... and then I moved to N.H."
