Hands Held High
Like Libby, I too have noticed an eerie numbness that sets in whenever I learn of th latest American or Iraqi to lose their lives because of this war. I watch videos like the above and it fills me with a cacophony of emotions. Anger. Sadness. Frustration. Guilt. Determination. All seem so hard to bare that we as a society, as a people, as human beings, have become far too desensitized to the violence so distant yet so tied to our national psyche. We've become far too complacent in allowing this president to continue this war all for the sake of his ego.
The emotion of fear was exploited to start this war. It's time another emotion ended it.
