I am so sickened by this piece I can barely eat my lunch.

I can't see it without paying... probably for the better. :(

I was so impressed with these young people in the article, travelling such a difficult road. I'm glad the university is helping out now.

ETA - I was thinking of the article of the homeless college students I read this AM. Hence my comment probably didn't make sense.

The invisible child article was so touching as well. Just such a struggle.

Kindra, I read this piece on Sunday, and have been thinking about it ever since. There are just so many obstacles for this girl and her siblings. There's really nothing I can say about it other than it's one of many reminders of just how blessed we all are, and to not take the simplest things for granted.
