things that matter
'Albertine'I am sitting stillI think of AngeliqueHer mother's voice over meAnd the bullets in the wall where it fell silentAnd on a thousandth hill, I think of AlbertineThere in her eyes what I don't see with my ownRwandaNow that I have seen, I am responsibleFaith without deeds is deadNow that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go 'til you are...And I am on a plane across a distant seaBut I carry you in meAnd in the dust, the dust on my feetRwandaNow that I have seen, I am responsibleFaith without deeds is deadNow that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go 'til you are...I will tell the world, I will tell them where I've beenI will keep my wordI will tell them, AlbertineRwandaNow that I have seen, I am responsibleFaith without deeds is deadNow that I have held you in my own arms, I cannot let go 'til you are...And I am on a stage, a thousand eyes on meI will tell them, AlbertineI will tell them, Albertine......................................... ........................................................................................."I don't have any grandiose illusions about being the saviour of the world, but I hope that I can play a little part. I would rather be considered a fool for thinking I can make a difference than for not doing anything"The story behind Albertine is a very touching one. Not very long ago, Brooke went to Rwanda on a World Vision Campaign. Her guide, a veteran of the devastating wars in Rwanda over the past few decades, showed her a village and introduced her to a little orphan girl called Albertine. She asked Brooke to pen a song about her and Brooke agreed.Now, in her first song (also called Albertine) she says she will“…tell the world, [she] will tell them Albertine...”. And, she does just that but that’s not all.This album is about all the things in this world that matter to her– be it things like her love for Africa or her passion for justice, authenticity and faith. This 22-year-old is all set to impress the world…again.Brooke Fraser, NEXT Magazine, December 06 Facts about RWANDA: As much as 10 per cent of the population of Rwanda was killed in the 100 days of the genocide. The current population is now 8.4mThe ethnic make-up of Rwanda is very skewed. As much as 85 per cent of the population is Hutu, but the elite positions have traditionally been taken by the minority Tutsis.The country had long suffered from ethnic tension because of the traditionally unequal relationship between the dominant Tutsi minority and the majority Hutus. In 1959, the civil war led to 200,000 Tutsis fleeing to Burundi.The UN set up a tribunal in 1995 to investigate the massacre. But despite a large budget, 16 judges and 800 members of staff, only eight people have been convicted of genocide-related crime.Human Rights Watch has done the most reliable study of the genocide. Researchers speak of hundreds of thousands of women having been raped. United Nations investigators say it could be between 250,000 to 500,000.The events in Rwanda led to rape being recognised as an act of genocide for the first time by an international court. The tribunal ruled that such acts"were committed solely against Tutsi women.Thousands of women raped during the genocide are now suffering from HIV or full blown AIDS. (An Avega survey of 900 women raped during the genocide found 68 percent HIV positive.Seventy percent of the population of Rwanda is female. Half of them are estimated to be widows.500,000 Rwandans - Hutu and Tutsi - are infected with HIV. That represents more than 11 percent of the population. The average in sub - Saharan Africa is eight percent.150,000 people have died of AIDS in Rwanda - some 20,000 of these were children. What am I into right now?· Music, as always, inspires me to think OTHER. Yeah, Brooke Fraser, is hitting an authentic tempo with the world around me right now. What are we doing about our brothers and sisters who are left to clean up the mess bestowed on them by the insanity of war??????· Reading A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS by Khaled Hosseini. With the passing of time comes Taliban rule over Afghanistan, the streets of Kabul loud with the sound of gunfire and bombs, life a desperate struggle against starvation, brutality and fear, Mariam and Laila's endurance tested beyond their worst imaginings. In the end it is love that triumphs over death and destruction. An amazing triumph of the human spirit.· Meditation has become a regular night time wind down which is providing so much balance and clearing of unwanted clutter in my life.· Pampering the body at Body Bliss, my seafront beauty haven, luxuriating in body massages and treatments to enhance that feel good euphoria.· Travel, planning a trip to Canberra with a bunch of amazing and energetic friends in September already has me on fire with passion for what I truly love to do best.· Loving and being loved by those who bring me so much beauty and joy.Not wanting anymore but indulging in what ALREADY IS....whoohooo, life cannot get any better.
