HeartBreak in Haiti

My daughter claimed someone bit her in school and it turned out to be a somewhat false alarm. She just did not like how her friend played with her.

My son still jokes at the table and wouldn't say grace like he was supposed to.

It is very hard for me to find a job right now, and soon I'll be in my next semester for my B.S.

My fiancee wants to go real "hard" and work three jobs.

These, and many other issues, are some problems that are going on in my life. Yet, the main thing that plagued my head was Haiti. It is sad to see another strong natural disaster occur, and I feel I can't do much to help. Some friends are donating their $5...I don't even have that at this time. So, I signed up to volunteer one way or another with UNICEF. My status might be looked down upon by the snubbish republicans such as Rush Limbaugh, but it is definitely greater than others in developing countries. My situation is not that bad, so I better help.

BTW of all times, I didn't think they could make an attack on Obama because of a swift response, but Limbaugh did. Okay, he didn't act quickly on an averted attack on Christmas. Hello? That attack was thwarted and no one was hurt. It took him three days to respond, but Bush longer for Katrina. When people hurt I think the priority in response is supposed to be Higher. This blog isn't supposed to always be political, but ya know, sometimes the nonsense is a bit much. Why can't Limbaugh rush to lend a hand? If he was in Haiti now, I'm sure he'd want it!

  1. A charitable caring hand
    Outstretched to another land:
    Empathising their grief
    With UNICEF relief.

    Good luck with your job hunting and studies. Thank you. Take care. Bye.

  2. Thank you, and take care also.

    I've also found an easy way for us all to contribute to the lack of clean water supply around the world. Millions of children do not have access to sanitary and safe water. For more info, go to: http://www.tapproject.org/#
