Benazir Bhutto

I wept as I heard the horrific news yesterday. It was a shock to my heart and my head that this womyn would be assassinated. I understand, as has been pointed out by a very smart man I know of, that she was not without her skeletons. I just think she was the best of all of the options available. She was a womyn who wanted what was best for her country.

She knew she was putting her life at risk by returning to her beloved home country but she took that risk and ran with it in order to be able to work on something she believed in. She stood up for her beliefs. More of us should be willing to do that.

Go in peace, Benazir.
