Kim Bird

 

The story behind this photo continues to shock anyone who recognizes it.

In 1968, two men kidnapped Kim Bird. They put her in a homemade coffin, took this photo and buried her in the woods. They hung the photo on a local bulletin board and signed on the back, "I am buried in the woods, you have no more than 5 days to find me." For days, passersby looked at the photo and thought it was a joke. Until a former colleague of Kim's saw the photo. She immediately went to the police, but they didn't know what to do. After all, they only have the photo, but where it is buried is unknown. Then Kim's classmate started looking at the photo and realized that some letters are written strangely, highlighted in bold, and if you look closely, you can read the girl's secret message....

On the leaf was written Kim + Brad (classmate's name). It was exactly the kind of inscription they had once left on a tree during a vacation in the woods as a token of their love for each other in high school. Brad immediately went with the police to the site and they found a fresh grave next to the tree. Kim was saved, but if she had been found a few hours later, she would not have survived.

For many years afterward, neither Kim nor Brad could explain how it happened that she was buried there and how Brad saw that photo. After all, he had just happened to be in town for work, he hadn't lived here for years.

Remna Ni – Mizoram’s Day of Peace and Unity

Remna Ni, celebrated annually on June 30th in the northeastern state of Mizoram, holds a place of profound historical and emotional significance for the Mizo people. Known as “Peace Day,” Remna Ni commemorates the signing of the Mizo Peace Accord in 1986, which brought an end to two decades of insurgency and unrest in the state. It is a day not only to remember the past but to celebrate the return of peace, stability, and democratic progress in Mizoram.   The origins of Remna Ni lie in a long period of political turmoil. In the 1960s, due to dissatisfaction with the Indian government’s handling of famine and development in the Mizo Hills (then part of Assam), the Mizo National Front (MNF) launched an armed uprising in 1966, demanding independence. What followed was twenty years of armed conflict, curfews, and deep unrest that affected thousands of lives. For two decades, Mizoram remained under military and political tension, isolated from the developmental mainstream of India. ...
