email messages

evry fortnight I recieve forwarded mails from many of my friends inland and abroad, on child abuse, domestic violence, battered baby, poverty & natural calamity leading to malnutrition and death. The mails also write that forward this message to the persons you know so that these can be informed to all...the mails contain some of the shocking, unbelievable pictures. Some go through these mails in detail and even try to forward them, others go through them and just give a deep breath of sympathy, some even dont go through them at all or delete them, considering to be trash!! But what next?? Just forwarding theses mails is enough? Are we doing enough by just circulating these among our friends? These are neither any achievements to adorn our screensavers our add our names in the list of social scientists nor are these pieces of trash to be thrown into the garbage!! Today morning I got a mail on child abuse in South Africa. A 3 year old girl raped and beaten up by a man, a 9 mon old baby girl raped by 6 men!! its really stunning to read these and all these... due to the myth prevailing that sex with a virgin cures AIDS!! Disgusting how can people be so ruthless, brutal creatures?? Its high time that these mails should only be read and forwarded. It is alright that we have a prime responsibility of making people aware of all these but things are to be done beyond these....
