Desperation – Haiti

This week I have been over come by the desperation in the world – highlighted by the plight of the rescues in Haiti. The news coverage has been nothing short of brilliant. CNN must have half a dozen film crews there capturing the desperation on the faces of the Haitian people. Seeing the lady and the kids being pulled from the rubble with the final death toll and loss of the country still adding up. One of my personal triggers is that of desperation, seen in all forms however this week seeing the sheer desperation in Haiti bought me to tears. It is really sad and mulling it over in my head this week it dawned on me how catastrophic it really is. I mean imagine having nothing and having that taken away rom you? How do you take nothing away from people who have nothing? Then hit them with another 6.2 earth quake! Think about it for a second , scientifically it makes no sense however it is happening / happened in Haiti these last few days. Anderson Cooper – big up to you, I saw you get involved in a skirmish – you put humanity before work  and you could not stand there while all this is going on around you – NICE!
