Ugh... so selfish!!!!

I have been sick for the last few days. It's just common cold like running nose, minor headache, sore throat and some body aches. I woke up around 4 AM to take medicine. While waiting for the ibuprofen to dissolve and take my headache away, I was browsing KSL. It is a website just like Craigslist only it is for Utah community. As most people do, I went to the free section. (you never know maybe someone had extra million dollar to give for free. ;)

While going through it, I saw a title of "WTF with Haiti." I clicked on it, and read what I thought was the most selfish opinion someone could write.
This person claimed she is a single mother with two kids who goes to work everyday and did not understand why the government put so much effort to raise money to help the people in Haiti. As she went on, she complained that she lives here in the United States and thought that the government is so blind that they didn't see her and helped her instead. There were other things she wrote that made me want to vomit and my head more ached.

Ok, first of all, she did not offer any free stuff. Second of all, who cares she has to go to work everyday. Who cares she is a single mother and has to raise her kids by herself. She can file for child support or get other supports from the state. She did not have a building fell on her, she did not have to see her family and friends suffered and died in front of her eyes. She did not have to hear all the screaming coming from people who are trapped begging for someone to save their lives. Please people have a heart!!! USA is a blessed country. It is one of the richest countries. There is no way anyone who lives here has worse life than those who are in Haiti. We should be grateful that the government is not blind to see that and has the means and capability to help them.

We try to keep up with the news. It is heart breaking. It is sorrowful and painful. The images show on TV are too hard to watch. My heart cries for them. This could happen to us, no place is safe from any turbulence. I am thankful that we can eat, have a place to live and can give each other hugs. I pray that Heavenly Father continues to protect us and bless us!!!
