Sunday Bloody Sunday
WOW! That's all I have to say. I just saw The Constant Gardener at Revival House, I was impressed.
Suffering in Africa is happening all the time, I have heard it said by an African that no one cares what happens in Africa. This movie shows some of the destitution that is there. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to live like that.
I am once again moved with an indescribable emotion. It's part sadness, part amazment, part sympathy, part anger, part anger, part anger, part indifference, part apalled. I am amazed that these people who are among the most emotive, passionate, kind humans on the planet live like dogs!!!! I am amazed that the world I live in, N. America, knows/cares very little on a daily basis about the well being of anyone but themselves. I am amazed at how I am moved by the sights of dying children to both horror AND APATHY at the same time. I am disturbed by it. I care and then I don't.
What does one do about these attrocities? What CAN someone do about it? Are we all simply limitedto help oneperson at a time? Are we really tied down by our physcal limitations of just being able to "help" out at a mission somewhere? I always feel that it's good to have people helping where they can and have always let them do what they do. Then I have always had a part of me say that their help is only limited and can only do so much good. They go into it wanting to "change the world" and I thinkto myself be real, you can only help as many as your able, the world will always have horrible things happening. I never suggest nor say don't bother, but I always feel that thought take over at the same time.
I know that helping even one life is good and invaluable to that person but I am always left feeling unsatisfied whenever I hear that or think it. I just want MORE!!!!!!!!! One is not enough, there needs to be redemption for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And here is where my passion and apathy colide with a deafening roar of confusion in my head. What the hell am I to do about it????????
Do I sponser a kid? Do I make donations to honest charities? Do I become a missionary to Africa and just do whatever I am physically capable of? Do I make noise here in America in a futile attempt to get people to, again, notice the suffering only to have the awareness fade like every other stupid fuking fad this fucked up culture embraces for a cheap fuck and good bye? It's so messed up!!!! I am so fucking riled up and heart broken, I don't know what I'm feeling, I just want to scream at all the stupid motherfucking injustice, hate, hunger, apathy, capatalism, GREEEEEEEDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE THIS FUCKING PLANET!!!!!!!!! Why can't Jesus just come back now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????????????????? Get it done and over with. It's so overwhleming, yet it's nothing compared to the what THE HOLY ONE sees every minute. We truly are wicked to the core, never doubt that. Our flesh is truly worthy of Hell. WE ALL DESERVE HELL!! Amazing Love, how can it be...?
