A Frozen Snapshot in Time

my oh my..if you have the chance you sld catch Hotel Rwanda- this show is a classic. beyond all the description that you see and hear on the movie, there is something deeper underlying all that. one thing that is true, all these genocides are still taking place in the world today.

we live in this part of the world where we think that gangsters fighting are the worse thing that you can see or ever accept where in the world out there beyond these 4 walls of the nations, there are issues of starvation and other issues but on top of that people are dying- not becos of old age but because they were straved to death or they were killed. here we are sitting in the comfort of our homes and think "poor thing" and get back to our lives. what harsh realities.

seriously, what benefit does it give to us for helping these people in need- zero i guess. apart from the gratification that they may have towards you. but this is not the issue- we call ourselves believers and sit back and do nothing about this. the bible says that as you do unto one of the least of these brethrens, you are doing it on to Me (God). what effect will the works that we do have? i guess first of all, we are saving lives. But what can we do? we cant all possibly get our gear together and set out on a quest to save the humanity- becos we are not trained to do that. i guess that is where what we have been learning for the past few weeks come in- that is where money can bring us to places and save lives that we may not physically able to save.

we sit in the comfort of our own room watching a movie and get all worked up but there is a limit to what we can do- for now! i want to be able to do sth in the time to come. we propagate human rights and equality- i think that it is time that we give some of those rights to these people where there is not even even food to go ard- they have their rights too, but who is going to give it to them.

***
here i am worrying about my own problems when there are issues that are gravier and needs more thoughts than all the things that i may think that i am going through. i need to have a greater capacity and a bigger heart for all the people who are suffering out there.
