I’ve been thinking about Haiti a lot lately. The outpouring on love far overwhelms those who would send judgment and cruel words towards the victims. Enough to say I pity those whose words carry such negativity and I send them love. I hope one day they too can open their hearts enough to allow compassion to reign. I am an optimist, I know that one day their eyes will open.

It warms my heart to see the explosion of generosity from people who already consider themselves to be on hard times. Tragedies like this tend to put so many aspects of our lives into perspective. Today I am beyond grateful to have ample food, clothes, shelter and more for my family.

Tonight I light a candle and send love to all who suffer. I hope that it’s light might join with the light of all prayers and bring comfort to those in pain. Peace on Earth.
