Sun, 28 Jun 2009A Week of Loss
We lost a number of personalities over the last few ways -- Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, Billy Mays. But, when you look at these people making news, you wonder just where we place our importance. It's tragic for their friends and family, don't get me wrong. But, they are entertainers. How may people died this week with little or no notice who really made a difference? How many policemen, firemen, statesmen, religious and those helping the poor and needy. How many people died needlessly in wars, because of starvation or conflict? How many people died because they fought for rights for their people? How many people die needlessly and without fanfair each day? posted 11:52 [/Thoughts] permanent link |
