I often read the blog A Life Overseas because it provides great insight and comfort that other people out there feel the same way we do here in Cambodia. Earlier this week the blog posted a video about why people give their life to seeking justice.
You can check out the video here. It's only 2 minutes.
We loved the video because it explains the connection we feel to the Cambodians that we live and work with day in and day out.
We each also just finished reading the book "Cambodia's Curse" by Jeff Brinkly, a serious of chapters on why Cambodia is a difficult place to find justice, freedom, fairness, and a quality life.
But my favorite quote in the book is from a UN Aid worker that worked in Cambodia for 1 year, "Cambodia is a dangerous place to go, you will fall in love, and it will break your heart."
Every day we fall in love with Cambodia, and every day it breaks our heart.
