As today was Friday, I checked the msn week in pictures, and it was moving. It opened my eyes through pictures, and a caption how bad the situation is in Darfur, Sudan, and the surrounding countries. It is so absolutely and undescribably horrific. Sorry this is so heavy, but it was laying heavy on my heart, and I think we should just be aware of what is going on around us.
I know that it is the holiday season, and that Thanksgiving was yesterday, but I want to say how thankful I am for safety, and health, and modern technology and access to modern medicine. We are so unbelievably blessed.
I don't know what I, or any of us can do to help the 4 million people that have been displaced, or killed, or harmed, but pray I suppose. I love you all, and have new appreciation and motivation to count my blessings.

Rachel - what a perfect post at this Thanksgiving time - we are truly so blessed, in this country and especially in this family. We are all our Heavenly Father's children and we need to not lose compassion because of our own comfort.
