Child abuse in Turkey was reported in the news today. Staffs abused
children in the orphanage. Staffs abuse children on a daily basis for a
long time, over 19 years. One person who knows the fact of the child
abuse took abusing scenes with a hidden camera. Terrible. Really
terrible. I can never forgive them. 7 staffs who were all women were
arrested. But it is the tip of iceberg. Many children are plagued by
abuse as well as war, poor, disaster and so on.
How can we protect children from these things?

My goals on the future chronology
Yesterday was my birthday and I set up goals and made my future chronology.
I set up some goals. Of course one of them is "English". I will score over 900 on TOEIC exam in 3 years. (Oh! You think it's impossible now, don't you?)
Another is that I will do activities to help poor children in the world. At the present time, I do something I can do a little by little. I hope I will do the activities worldwide in the future.
There are many poor people in the world. Especially I'd like to help children.
For example, street children. One Filipino girl works in dump all day and get small changes. They can eat lean meals only every 3days.
For example, children who are in the battlefields, children who are in the disaster areas, children who are in the poorest countries.
When they play with their friends, they really enjoy with smile, although they are in the harsh situation. When I see their innocent smile, I feel near tears. They can't go to school but they have strong desire to study. So I'd like to do activities to make situation that children can go to school. I think foods are needed before education though.

If you have money in the bank, money in your wallet and spare change somewhere around the house, you are among the richest 8.
Among the villagers,
1 has a college education, 2 have computers, 14 cannot read.

I have money in the bank, in my wallet. I had gone to university. I have my computer.
And these are things most Japanese take for granted. But these are very very rare things in the world. I must be thankful for my situation.
