Six years ago today, I woke up miserable because of my own problems. I was nine years old at the time - and was thinking only about myself. I got a major wake-up call, though. It's the first time I recall having ever paid any attention to the news. Or thinking of anyone outside my immediate circle for so long. I couldn't get it out of my head for days - maybe weeks - following. I realized that there was a world out there that needs help. A world that needs God. I'm out of time, so I need to go. I apologize for the shortness of this. Maybe I'll post a poem tomorrow.
