As I watch the grim news accounts of what is happening in Haiti, I am so struck by the sadness of it all. Lives are lost and bodies are treated like trash. Families have their loved ones tossed in garbage heaps into mass graves. It is hard for anyone in a modern civilization to imagine. Katrina was awful, and the Tsunami of 2004 was horrific, but great pains were made to keep people’s memories alive, and identities were at least catalogued when it was possible. Now, Haiti has lost generations- men, women, children. They are faceless and nameless. It is so terribly sad to me.
If you haven’t given to help,  please do so. Anything.
