When a seed is planted it sprouts into a plant and slowly spreads its branches
growing into a tree. It shelters all animals, birds and humans regardless of the
species. As part of their process of healing, the survivor group of the Human
Rights Office decided to go beyond themselves to reach out to the war-torn
areas in the North.
It will be a 15 day workshop consisting of three parts. The first part of the
workshop was held in Kandy - Lewella Fatima Retreat House from the 3rd to
the 8th of November 2012. The other two parts will be continued in the year
2013. The workshop consisted of input sessions, group work, personal
reflection, games and relaxation exercises.
The participants were open in their sharing and were bold enough to go
through a process of inner healing. Saying “Good Bye” to the unfinished
business was a very emotional experience where the participants grieved over their losses. A sense of relief and a general tone
of joy prevailed as they achieved the much desired closure.
