When I finally crawled out of bed today to take my still sleepy self to the couch, I was still not thinking clearly. There, on the TV, were hundreds of people huddled on a bridge. I thought I was looking at pictures of Africa where misery on a mass level is never in short supply. It did not dawn on me that I was indeed looking at pictures from my own country.
Stunned. Surreal. These words come to mind, but they don't do justice.I just heard NPR say, "The situation continues to worsen."
Misery-it's a universal.
The multitudes asked him, "What then must we do?"
