As you all should know by now, Haiti has been hit by one of the most concentrated & deeply distructive natural disasters in the history of planet earth.
it is very hard for me to imagine that this has not affected everyone everywhere. I have a friend that is Haitian here in the Bronx & she has not been able to get in touch with her family in Haiti, & they are still missing. Whole families are gone, there are 10's of thousands of people missing & dead.
Almost 50% of Haiti's population are children.
We have to help, these are dire times & HAITI NEEDS US NOW.

To help Haiti would require a government that is just. Money given as aid to Haiti should have gone to Haiti's people. Where did it go? How many people in leadership positions became wealthy from the hard earned money from others generosity? Where are the leaders in Haiti now? I'm just wondering.
ReplyDeleteI cry for the people of Haiti and pray for a better world for them. No one should ever have to endure the struggles they have been through. Are the series of earthquakes, an act of nature, God's way to bring about the attention Haiti needs from the world as a last attempt to save these people? Please, world, give what you can to help the citizens of Haiti live another day.
