Best known for his role as Lucas Jones on “General Hospital,” Ryan Carnes has shared his experience during his second trip to the southern border. Together with This Is About Humanity, the actor took the opportunity to learn about the lives of asylum seekers and their struggles. Carnes had a lot of things to say and he shared it all in an Instagram post.

An Eye-Opening Experience

“Made my second trip to the border with @thisisabouthumanity, led by the incredible and indomitable @elsamariecollins @yscalibaja and @zoe.winkler.reinis,” Carnes said.

“What these women have created is deeply impactful — both for the asylum-seekers whose lives are made better by their generosity and commitment to a more kind, humane world, and for those of us who get to experience first-hand the atrocities through which some of our fellow brothers and sisters have to live,” he continued.

Made my second trip to the border with @thisisabouthumanity, led by the incredible and indomitable @elsamariecollins @yscalibaja and @zoe.winkler.reinis. What these women have created is deeply impactful — both for the asylum-seekers whose lives are made better by their generosity and commitment to a more kind, humane world, and for those of us who get to experience first-hand the atrocities through which some of our fellow brothers and sisters have to live. . Both times I’ve gone, as I’ve heard poignant, sometimes atrocious stories of the circumstances some of these humans have faced that have compelled them to flee and legally seek asylum (which is a human right recognized by the UN), I’m reminded both of the resilience of the human spirit and just how fortunate I am to have been born where I was, at the time I was, to the family in which I was born, and to have largely lived a very, very safe, secure life, full of opportunity. . Not everyone lives like that. Some people’s hard-earned money is stolen from them by thugs who wield power because of the mere threat of violence. Some people’s spouses are beaten and murdered for no apparent reason. Some people’s children are stolen and sold into child labor or sex slavery. Some people are bullied for their sexual orientation, beaten, raped, and sodomized — simply for being who they are and for triggering unconscious fear and insecurity in others. And some people are simply terrified for their lives and the lives of their children because in this world, sometimes fear is a currency all its own, that is used to prevent others from living freely and providing for their families. . On these trips, I have seen and heard things I never thought I would see or hear. I have been reminded of how important it is to be of service in this life and to move through our days with as much love, kindness, compassion, and generosity as we can possibly muster. And I have witnessed directly what a difference showing up to offer time, energy, resources, and love can make in the lives of others. . CAPTION CONTINUED IN COMMENTS

Asylum Seekers Share Their Personal Stories

The actor shared that during his trip, he’s heard personal accounts of the horrors that these people have to go through, which forced them to seek asylum. The stories the asylum seekers had to tell reminded him of the “resilience of the human spirit.” It also made him realize how lucky he is for living a safe and secure life.

These individuals suffered various kinds of atrocities like thugs stealing everything they have, children were stolen and sold, spouses beat, people raped, sodomized, and even murdered.

Carnes continued by saying that all these horrific stories should serve as a reminder for people to learn how to love, be kind, compassionate, and generous to others.

“And I have witnessed directly what a difference showing up to offer time, energy, resources, and love can make in the lives of others,” he added.
