I want to turn a blind eye. I read from Relavent magazine stories of the Congo and injustices throughout the glove... I have books of child soldiers on my shelves.... I lurk through webpages of stories, and my continuous flow of mail delivering news which calls me forth...
But I want to turn a blind eye. Because all of it makes me feel, and all of it requires action. And I don't know what to do with it all, or how to even try to begin one of the needs. I want to turn a blind eye, simply because it's 'easier' and I can play ignorant so I am not responsible for what I know and the awful, treacherous, heartbreaking actions that are occurring across the earth.
I want to turn a blind eye, but know that I can not. How does one person "decide" how to make a difference? How does one "choose" which area of injustice to target? How does one pray for the God of us all to step forth?...
