Family, Freedom (not Farc)
Farc
Columbian rebels are thought to be holding about 750 prisoners; Here's the experience of 3 recently freed Americans, who had to endure cruelties such as sleeping both in boxes and with chains around their necks all the time, including while they were sleeping, secured to a tree...:
Freedom
-Gonsalves also held small wooden chess pawns he had carved out of wood using a broken piece of a machete. It took three months to make them, he said. Watch Gonsalves talk about how chess made him feel free "We're in chains, sitting Indian-style on a piece of plastic, just playing chess," Stansell said. "And when you're doing that, you're free."
Family
-He said, "When you're in our situation, we realize what's important. We know. The three of us know better than any of you guys out there, it's the family. And I'd like everyone to listen very closely to that."
Chess is freedom. I knew a player who said, "Chess is war". So war is freedom.
Hmm.
