This month, Rwanda commemorates the 20th anniversary of the 1994 - TopicsExpress



          

This month, Rwanda commemorates the 20th anniversary of the 1994 genocide. While I was there doing research for my book about forgiveness, I met an extraordinary woman named Chantal. Chantal, at 16, survived a massacre of 3,000 people - and that was just the beginning. Twenty years later, she told me, You have to choose to be happy, no matter what. We all at times feel overwhelmed by challenges, but if Chantal can choose to be happy, shouldnt the rest of us? For more reading on Rwanda 20 years later: I did this story about women survivors, and this about a unique reconciliation program that unites survivors and perpetrators.
