LOVE IS A THREAD

Justice is a garment prepared for residents of earth. It is woven from billions of threads, knit together into a strong and integrated fabric. Love is the thread and it has produced a fabric of integrity.

Injustice occurs when countless numbers of these threads are pulled from the garment. The wearer of the garment is uncovered and vulnerable.

The work of justice is to mend the rips and tears of injustice that have occurred in the fabric of a society and its governance. The repair consists of the replacement of frayed threads, so the work must begin with love. 

The idea for my literary fragment above was inspired by THE JUSTICE CONFERENCE that uses among its images this one. Love is a Thread. This Conference promotes dialogue around

justice related issues such as human trafficking, slavery, poverty, HIV/AIDS and human rights.

Ayn Van Dyk’s release from government care into the waiting arms of her father Derek Hoare is at the very least the requisite solution to a human rights issue. It may be much more upon closer scrutiny of the policy, interpretation and practices that make it possible for a protection agency in response to a notification of a child missing for three hours, to take that child from her family. When due consideration is given to the child’s autism, not a father’s negligence, that accounts for her nomadic excursion to a neighbour’s yard, the shredding and slashing of justice is readily apparent. Immediately following Ayn’s brief trip, protection social workers appeared with a voluntary release form for Derek to sign. That was met by his anxious and incensed refusal. Four days later, unannounced, this government agency removed Ayn from her public school classroom. Ayn’s justice garment was in tatters as was Derek’s and his sons, and the extended family’s garments. Love covered her at home in the prettiest material designed specially for her. Only love’s thread can mend the lacerations so she is properly adorned again. Over 4000 people are members of Ayn's Facebook page, called 'Help Bring Little Autistic Girl Back to Daddy." and many are actively involved in lobbying for her release. Our comments are shared all days long. Here we weave our voice and our gifts into the project of Ayn’s protection so she can wear her garment of justice with its irreplaceable threads.
