Haiti.

I am going to be honest. When the earthquake hit, I was saddened, and felt horrible for the people who went through it, lost loved ones, etc, but it just didn't affect me like it did others. It's been that way for the few days since as well.

Well, today I received an email with the following link from a friend. The pictures are graphic, but they're real. They're what people need to see. They show what really happened to the people of that small island. They didn't lose buildings...they lost people. Husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, BABIES, and more. Read the interview, look at the pictures. Pray for those people if you haven't. Donate if you can.

I am sad that for some reason it's taken me days to honestly and truly care what happened to the Haitian people. I am glad that I have finally woken up. Never again.
