We will take a day off to acknowledge the terrible tragedy that has occurred in Myanmar. As the death toll climbs towards 100,000, we hope the government will come to its senses and allow humanitarian relief to enter the country so they can begin to recover.
Update @ 9:00 am est: The first UN relief planes have landed in Myanmar as part of the international airlift of aid to the victims.
OH Cindy--- thanks for this. We all need a reality check, yes?
ReplyDeleteYes, it keeps things in perspective.
ReplyDeleteSeriously. This is just so sad. I'm glad they are accepting aid now.
ReplyDeleteI know. There are other options if they don't want aid from the US.
