pegkerrI don't know anyone personally in Darfur, Iraq, Myanmar or China.
I don't know anyone personally (to my knowledge) affected by the tornadoes that have ripped up several communities here in the states.
Here on LiveJournal, we natter on (and on! and on!) about our various concerns, but to me today, hearing the news of war, cyclones, earthquakes and tornadoes, they seem just so trivial and petty.
I just want to light a candle today for those who have lost their entire world, who are struggling for survival.
