Trying to find everyone. Since we didn't know each other in person, everyone gathered in one place not knowing who to look for.

My hero for the day was Jean-Pierre. He spoke no German, no English and was the only man. And he still had fun, thanks to Danielle he did understand us and probably distributed the most leaflets. Shows what believe can do.

Many thanks to all of the once who turned up and helped. Can't wait to see you all again!

What did I learn from all this? Well, there are people who talk talk talk and when it comes to really doing something, they don't. Many people like to stay in their comfort zone and are scared to take action. It showed me what friendship really means. And it showed me, that organisations are no help what so ever. I asked a few for support, advertising and leaflets and didn't even get an answer. Let me tell you, it is no good just pushing out statistics and getting membership money. We all fight the same fight, and I thought it is more important that something is done, rahter than looking if this person is a member. We are fighting for life and human rights, not for peanuts.
