It's Not Fair

It's not fair that the following video is REALITY and we have never felt such things, never been scathed by things like this, never been touched by this kind of suffering.

It's not fair that at the exact same time as these things are happening, Americans are looking at "10 Best Cars of 2011", buying pointless-waste-of-time apps for our iPhone, and reading about "Camille Grammer not leaving 'Real Housewives' just yet" ......that's not fair.

It's not fair. But it's reality. I thank Him, for He has blessed us abundantly beyond what we deserve, but I also pray I will not live as an ostrich with my head in the sand, that I will not be blind to reality. That I will forever cling to Him as my only hope, and know that we are not immune to suffering; to be human is to suffer. To live on this planet is to suffer.

If I know nothing of suffering, how will I take it when suffering comes knocking at my own door?

So I share in the sufferings of these Haitians.
