"Although I have not witnessed the war directly, I know the impact of a war. I was victimized in the 1989 violence in the South. I still feel the pain in my heart. It's unforgettable. I can show an injury on my body, but I can't show my injury in my heart. An injury in the heart is more painful than an injury on the body. Some have suffered during the war, and have injuries on their bodies.And we all have injuries in our hearts, because of the bitter experience due to war. We can heal an injury on the body, but we cannot heal the injury in the heart" says Bandu Manamperi
