Whenever a tragedy strikes, we often stop and take stock of our own lives. Our values, our priorities. This week is no different and I am no different. Of course, instead of a positive outpouring of support, some choose to set themselves upon a pedestal of ignorance, hatred and cruelty. I won't name the people as they are receiving far more publicity and attention than they deserve. My point is simple. Don't make this tragedy about ignorance, hatred or differences of opinion. Your time (and mine) can be beter spent helping the people of Haiti by donating our time, efforts and finances (however small, help IS help).
From MSNBC, here is a link to A TON of charities that can use your help.
