Romance and intrigue in public

Seoul, capitol city of the Republic of Korea, in the shadow of a horrible diplomatic foopah, holds a meeting that will change world policies. Meetings revealing human issues have changed world politics drastically in just the past fifty years. To know the sacrifice and ridicule people suffered for those actions is critical to finding the courage to continue the progress.
Here and now, in June of 2005, thousands of women from 90 countries are pouring out their hearts and research with the expectation that to know every person's struggle will inspire a deeper search for solutions. Is it necessary to know the violence and horror experienced by women in every nook and cranny of our earth? Yes. It opens the opportunity for bonding and then action. So much is unbelievable but we need to hear how powers in the world keep women in fear, bondage, and submission using the same simple techniques.
Only if women and the men they love understand that the tragedy of humans exists everywhere and no individual needs to stand alone, can they go forward with determination to create necessary actions. Women now know they can think bigger, achieve higher, and influence wider. Women have no greater capacity than men to create a safer world. But women do have language skills and managing abilities to implement change. Gertrude Mongella, in the keynote address, told of her rise in influence as she knew she could do the greater tasks she pushed for herself. She didn't believe she could do the jobs - she knew she could. And it is that kind of knowing - the basic thinking - this conference inspires.
Corporate greed changed the world scene and it helps women. The demand for better technology gave us tools for instant communication and easier travel. And this meeting of intelligent minds urges digestion of reality so action can be defined. Women are embracing the earth. Some do not know exactly what they promise to embrace. Some think that embracing the earth means embracing people, but people are the problem so solutions from other aspects of human life must be put into expectations. Only by striving toward great expectations can change occur.
Change is happening. And the opposition knows it is losing. We see greater violence as proof of their impending loss. We will keep pushing and we will win.
