we have it so good

i met about 7 teenagers today that have lost their parents to AIDS and are raising their younger siblings, going to school, keeping up the house, and trying to figure themselves out.

i held so many kids that see more hurt and neglect at home then love.

i tried to talk to children that have spent most of their lives ignored. they just stared out at me from deep eyes.

i was so blessed and these children will continue to bless and teach me more then i can even imagine at this point, but i started to learn the depth of my ignorance and the privilege of my circumstance a little better today.
