Blog #10

Considering the quote: “I have looked into your eyes with my eyes.  I have put my heart near your heart.”, what you have learned and what we have discussed, describe the Sister Dorothy in you...

Sister Dorothy had done many things to people who live near Amazon, and she protected them from natural disaster and worked with them. Sister Dorothy in my is like a hero because she is willing to help the poor people in the Brazil although it is more dangerous to work there. As the world discover lots of natural resources in the rainforest. Gradually, loggers, ranchers and land speculators came to forest and destroying the forest. Sister Dorothy witnessed the destruction of the rainforest. She knew the importance of the Amazon which is like the lungs of the earth. She helped people who lived in the forest and taught them the farming technique, and told them how to protect their family. She also asked for government to send troops in order to protect people, but no one responded. She was named to a "Death List" created by the power brokers in that area. They tries to eliminate all the people who stood opposite side with them including Sister Dorothy. When she was killed, she took out her bible and began to read beatitude. She was truly hero because she saved the forest and the people, although she knew that she would die for doing that. She did not afraid of death. I learned that if people have their own belief, they will not be afraid of anything. I think she is very brave because she worked at very poor working condition but she still felt happy and smiled at the camera.
