I just realised that this is the religion forum not the political forum! I dont care if you dont! I would just get alot of pretty much shock that I would even think about going, like Do you know whats going on there kind of thing to which i would answer "well duh lived there" and general moralistic high horse attitudes like im a supporter of abusement of human rights or something. i dont think its that cut and dried. Some people didnt know what was going on and some people felt like me. I generally found though, that the people who would judge me were the same ones who "oh I would love to go to china" similar to the almost arguement i got into with my clients a few weeks ago, The father of the family I took on my trip said they wouldnt never go to Myanamr under the present regime spelling?)with this combative tone of voice knowing full well I had lived there but I managed to keep my mouth shut, remarkably I should add. I dont care if people go or not you know what I mean? but just dont judge unless you have a informed opinion. ( this family wanted to go to China) If you asked the people what they thought, they're thrilled tourists would be coming to their country. I dont have all the answers but I want to decide for myself not have georgie or canada or blair telling me I what I can or cannot do. Go with your heart dont you think?
I know I try to.
