As reported by Global News, “As many as 10,000 people were killed per day” during the Rwandan genocide. The genocide may be over, but the pain, suffering, and violence are not. Let’s reclaim this number and see 10,000 victims of trauma empowered per day.
No victim of violence should be left unheard or face fear about speaking out. Join MAJ's fight to empower the vulnerable and defeat gender-based violence.
Ending gender-based violence doesn’t just mean fighting for those who are experiencing it, or have experienced it, but teaching them how to fight for themselves. Visit our website to learn how MAJ is using Enhanced Resilience Training to combat trauma. https://t.co/K1of6EWth4
There's a Japanese proverb that states: “In the struggle between the stone and water, in time, the water wins.” This illustrates what perseverance is all about. We all have stones that seem impossible to overcome, but with perseverance, the water will eventually win.
Tragedies, hardships, and disappointments come for us all. Whether aware of it or not, these moments shape how we perceive and approach the world. Trauma may change someone, but it will never define them.
Victory isn’t only found in accomplishment, but also in the life one leads and the values they stand for. Living for truth and justice – no matter what consequences may come – is a commitment made by Taekwondo students around the world and an example worth following.
There's a Japanese proverb that states, “Fall seven times, stand up eight.” The unfortunate truth is that none of us can avoid fear, pain, and suffering. Resilience is about not staying down.
Mother Teresa once said, “I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things.” The message is pretty clear. We all have unique skills, talents, and gifts. Working together and combining our gifts, we can do the extraordinary.
