Judy Price is Writing

It is with great joy, as well as sadness, that I write this thank you to Lara Logan after watching her interview on ’60 Minutes’ this evening.

February 18th I wrote an article entitled, “Sexual Assault Exemplifies Human Tragedy”, after hearing about this tragic event in Egypt.

I hoped and prayed that Lara Logan would recover and heal enough to be able to return as a strong voice for change, and my prayers along with so many others are being answered.

Seeing and hearing her tonight, as tears came to her eyes, so they did to mine. 

There is an empathy she elicits from me and so many others now, that will strengthen us all while enabling her to find the resolve she needs to return to her mission and passion in life, as a journalist reporting human change globally.

Her fear, which is a normal reaction to the horrific violence she survived, will eventually be replaced with its opposite; love.

Love for her work and, more importantly, her love for humanity will overcome this fear.

I thank you Lara Logan for having the courage, which is facing fear head-on and moving forward in spite of it, to raise your strong voice, knowing your tears would follow, on ’60 Minutes’ as a prelude to your eventual return as the courageous  journalist you now exemplify.
