Values.

Been a really interesting week or so with Reach.
Funny how you really see peoples values when the fan is on and the brown stuff is flying!!
Thankfully, our boys and girls that work with Reach are made of strong stuff.
Reach is moving. Going from strength to strength.
We have had to adjust our street food run timings so as not to overlap other organisations who are working on the street.
They may not even consider that but we want to make sure we get food to the needy at the time they need it and if that means we have to adjust our times, so be it.
You see, its easy to come out at 7pm or 5pm and feel that you are doing something good. Or on Saturdays or Sundays.
No issue with doing that, but don't you damn well dare start spouting in the press about what you are doing. That's EGO!
We are out at 11.30pm, 2am, 4am, Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, in fact everyday of the week. We feed in places where other groups cant or wont go. So don't get holier than thou through the press.
If your gonna do this do it for the right reasons.
Then we have the Obedient Wives Club.
Lots in the press.
I'm supporting the AntiOWC for one main reason.
I DO NOT accept that domestic violence is the fault of the victim! Thats what they have said and repeated time and time again.
That's why I started White Ribbon Malaysia. To add Malaysia to the growing global movement called White Ribbon.
I know who this OWC are and who they are linked to and if you don't stand up against this then you condone their actions/statements/views by your silence.
Of course if you agree with the OWC then fine. I don't. That's my choice. And its everyones choice to stay quiet or make their concerns known.
So lets just say, I say NO. NEVER. NOT IN MY LIFETIME will I accept and stay quiet on the OWC and their shameful, disgusting, discriminatory views on women and girls.
NO. NEVER. NOT IN MY LIFETIME.
Not until they are gone and it is shown that civilised society will not allow their warped, deviant, and disgraceful stance against women to remain.
They must be consigned to a distant memory, a bad memory and one that we wont ever let come back.
Its a new Reach week.
Time to meet new friends and volunteers on the streets. Time to continue to try and get our street friends reintegrated back into society.
A time to share what we do with those that want to help.
