Amalia thanks so much for sharing your story. It made me think a lot - as I have also wondered why some people do their best to help - and others do so much to hurt or destroy. I know I cannot ever completely understand others - but I have decided I want to make this trip through life better - easier - kinder. I too love the world - plants - animals - and people. When I go - I hope I will have helped more than hurt. Thanks so much for sharing your story - it is wonderful.
