Day 128
I discovered yet another amazing blog by a lady called Bernadette Russell that is very inspiring. She completed a year of performing a daily act of kindness for strangers and wrote about it (see it here). I sent her an email to say that I was inspired by her blog and I shared what I was doing too. I asked to join their Facebook page as people are posting their inspirational stories on there.
I also sent an email through Amnesty International urging action for the abducted girls in Nigeria. On April the 14th over 200 girls were abducted by Boko Haram from a
Nigerian school and although some escaped the rest are still being held
captive and their whereabouts is unknown. I have just received an email
from Amnesty International telling me that Nigerian security forces
failed to act on advanced warnings about Boko Haram's raid and did not
do enough to stop it. Amnesty have asked us to call upon the Nigerian
leadership (see here) to now use all lawful means at their disposal to secure the
girls’ safe release and ensure nothing like this can happen again.
I am visiting my family today for my Dad's 70th birthday! He is a legend and it is nice that we get to celebrate it with him. My mum is sending some treats for my nephew so I am sending him this too. Isn't this ace (from a cute shop called Found). Louis is mad about space :)
