Here and now...

Why again?  Why Sudan?  Why Genocide?  Why do we sit and watch TV?

I keep seeing Rowanda in my mind's eye.  And what I see I don't want to share.  (Did you bring enough for everyone?)  Do we really think that we are immune to the killing, the hatred, the pain?  Do we think that we can wrap it all up in a "Duck Dynasty" blanket?  Do we think that we can sit back and giggle along with this generation's Archie Bunker?  Are we that blind?  Are we that confused?  Are we sane?

I think we all need to be placed on a 72hour hold.  I think we need to be held responsible for our thoughts and words.  I think we need to realize that everyone else also matters.

I think I need to stop thinking, and listen to my heart...
