It was emotionally overwhelming trying to help Chinese Indonesian clients at that time in court room setting. I still need to learn to practice spirituality from the heart without being carried away emotionally. Then we share these difficulties also, and pray so that the door of compassion is always open.

We still have many excuses for disallowing the victims to "affect" the Church. As a member of the Indonesian Catholic Church, I feel that we do not yet open our door for the victims to come in.

It is important that we express and share our grief and sorrow, not to dwell on the past, but to release the psychological trauma and to renew life itself. The past cannot be forgotten, but becomes a lesson to learn once understood in its psychological complexities. We do not need to suffer silently alone, but to strengthen each other with self renewal in wisdom and compassion. Thank you Mutiara. I thank you all the facilitators that makes this forum possible.
