Why?

The other day while watching the news my heart was disheartened by the news article of the little girl who was chopped and her maid.
One person can be insane but when three collectively gang up to commit such an atrocity on an innocent soul, I find it way beyond insanity. My only peace is in believing that the little angel is at a better place.

My prayer goes to the little girl’s parents and relatives. This is just too painful for them to bear, to accept and move from.

I do not know what drives someone to such insanity. Could it have been drugs, hatred, greed, jealousy? What would surely justify such an act?

   What we’re saying today is that you’re either part of the solution or you’re part of the problem.
   [1968 E. Cleaver Speech (in R. Scheer, Eldridge Cleaver (1969) 32)]

   You are likened to Iron Lady…. determination to see change through for the highest good of all concerned.
   You have been with the people in all the projects you have initiated a fair piece of the cake to the areas politicians only visit when they are seeking votes.
   Yet in all you understand better those who you have mixed with in all areas not seeking votes, but more to improvise awareness. I recall when you were recruiting street children, you saw the good in them and believed that they only needed to be given a fair chance in life. I thought that was the most honorable gesture when you further employed every physically impaired in your factory.You have walked through slums making it your business to sponsor children to school for you believed that education and literacy is the greatest gift you could give any human. Your compassion for the less privileged has always been your quest. To humanity an awareness that all is possible.

   Exactly, thats what I’m talking about. Problem is; most rich people have no clue thats whats happening, most middle class people have no courage to act on it and most poor people know it but cant do anything about it.
   Lets keep educating those who do not know, encourage those who need a little push then give hope, show love n give what we can no matter how small.
   This is our country our future and our childrens future.
   Lets make it a better place.
