Sad, isn't it?

Amazing. How people have trouble living. In this world. Unable to find peace and tranquility and happiness. They become destitute. Refugees. Fleeing. Fleeing. Often not knowing where to. And not only refugees. Take my friend, Julie, for instance. She wanders in a labyrinth of mental illness. Depression. Grief. Despite having the financial wherewithal. To have the material things of life. But even if she had millions and millions of dollars, she can't find a way to buy happiness. Meanwhile, America could do far more. To aid the refugees. I'm proud of my German heritage. The Germans, after all, have pledged to take in 800,000 refugees.  I feel kinship with the refugees, too.  Because they are trying to do something about their hellish plights.  Sad, isn't it? We Americans lag far behind the Germans. In doing the right thing. --Jim Broede
