It really breaks my heart to hear people say they don’t think they would ever be able to love an adopted child as their own. I appreciate their honesty, but it still breaks my heart.

System breakdown leaves Burmese refugees in need | The News-Sentinel - Fort Wayne IN

System breakdown leaves Burmese refugees in need | The News-Sentinel - Fort Wayne IN:

thelink:

Here is an article on the News Sentinel website that was posted yesterday about how some of the new Burmese refugees are not receiving their financial/food/medical aid in adequate time. This is a big problem in the fact that they’re having to wait close to two months to receive their aid.

What’s even bigger about this article are the responses to the article at the bottom from FW residents that decided they needed to “speak up” and share their thoughts on our new refugee friends. Unfortunately, the comments are not pretty and should challenge us to step up how we treat each other.

These comments really hit how we need a new and radical change towards humanitarian crisis.

One of the commenters, Nancy Virtue, is a former professor of mine and also one of my favorite people in the world. It is an honor to know her.

Next venture: volunteering again!

I wonder if this little girl knows just how much she doesn’t deserve her medal. Must it be mentioned again that she also doesn’t belong in this Olympics? She’s not old enough and her routine was obviously second best if not third.

China, you are the worst. Really, the worst.

Poor Nastia. I really admire her for keeping her composure the whole time.
