Today former President Bill Clinton was able to negotiate the release of two American journalist from a Korean prison. Albeit with an apparent false message from the White House. Great job Clinton!
I am always amazed at this powerhouse that we call home, the grand ol US of A. However, at what point do we become the change that we want to see in others? When do we start to behave in a manner that is indicative of a true powerhouse. Too often we do not practice what we preach. We extend our hearts and wallets to causes all around the world but will step over a person in need right here in our own backyard. We will send aide to dying countries but let the residents of New Orleans struggle to bring their homes back. We talk of peace in the Middle East yet protect the rights of racial groups. We lend money to failing countries while watching Americans loose their homes, their jobs, their health care. WTF!(What The F---).
It is a great thing to open your hearts and lend a helping hand to your brothering nation but can we at least take care of home first? Think about it....
Peace & Love,

About Me
- Rae
- I am a native of New Orleans but currently live in the DC metro area. The things that I enjoy the most in life are photography, lending a helping a hand to those around me, traveling, cooking, and the taste of great wines. I believe that life should be lived out loud and that the greatest tradjedy is to not live your life to the absolute fullest and that you should do so without fear of failure to just simply try.
