Karen Drucker writes, “Wouldn’t the world be a different place if we understood how important the other is in our lives? How would you feel if you suddenly realized that you needed that particular child crying in Haiti because it contracted cholera because the government did not clean the rivers?
How would you feel if you needed the very Chinese general who ousted the Dalai Lama from his homeland in Tibet? How would you feel if you needed the criminal sitting in jail who did the most horrible things to his or her fellow human being, but you needed them? How would you feel if you needed the one person you despise the most in the world? How would your feelings change if you knew that your very life depended on that person who is making your life the most miserable right now? How would you feel?”
I don’t know how others would feel my dear Karen, but here’s my take. I would of course feel bad for an innocent child, but if the parents of that adult caused it because of their own raw sewage entering a river that wasn’t the fault of government. This is a failure of personal responsibility and sadly Haiti is full of those types. They foolishly sit around waiting for someone else to do it all the work for them. They demand that others build houses, clean rivers, remove trash, provide medical, etc. Then they take out their frustrations by stoning doctors and relief workers because they are not working fast enough to help them, Bad things happen when people refuse to help themselves. Blaming others won’t get the job done either. Thats when the Darwin effect kicks and solves the problem.
Next. Karen, I will not ever find myself relying on creeps such as your communist general or a vicious criminal for my needs, I would rather rely on myself. Not sure where you are coming from, but you must realize that people reach an age of accountability and then what they do is on them.
This is how the real world works my dear airhead.
