In Search of the Truth

I cried today after the initial shock of whats has happened to Haiti. I cried because of the things I knew to be true: children are dead and mothers are crying, husbands and sons have been lost. Brothers and sisters are seperated by more than space, they are seperated from home, family, and hope.

I cried at the images of childrens bodies laying piled in the streets next to schools, and I cried at the images of women laying dead with shock still emblazened on their faces. I cried because of the blood spilled, and life lost, and hope gone.

I cried because I realized that all of the things that I have been upset about in my life are absolutely minimal and nothing in comparison to the devestation of those who have survived in Haiti. To those in Haiti I am sorry from every fiber in my soul. I can't even begin to imagine a fraction of what you feel but you all are in my prayers as should we all in America.
