Blood Diamond Story

I've been working outside in the sun all day long. I want to kill the RUF but they have to many soldiers against us. Even little kid. They kidnap the kids and make them one of there soldiers. They give them alcohol and drugs to paralyze them wen the shoot people. Also that way the kids don't care about who there shooting at. The RUF try to make the kids like grow men even though there still little kids. It is terrible how they treat people. Like there better than every one around. Well I want to stop this madness before they try to take my little boy. I try my best to protect him. I'm out side every day taking orders from the RUF digging for diamonds looking harder and harder for them. Every time I find a diamond I want to hid it from them because I need the money they just want the diamonds that way they can sell it to the Americans for more money. They cut my husbands arm of a few months ago. He was just looking for food and they just tortured him and he was just standing there looking helplessly. I wanted to kill one of them. But I'm only a woman and there will be a lot of men against me if I try to kill even one of them. I need to get out of this place. I need to run away like now but i don't know how it's hard when you have every one watching you every second of the day. So i don't know how to do this. But I'm going to do it some day. And I'm going to make sure that my children are safe too.

Fantastic! You really got into the mind state of an African mother living in the midst of terror. You added great details which reflects how much you learned in our studies. A+
