I know Duke isn't religious....but somehow this whole thread reminded me of the verse in the Bible which says "Blessed are the poor...". We may never be rich or be able to solve the hurts or unfairness of this world.....but AT LEAST we see it and care. SOOOO many don't seem to.
I can't imagine having millions and enjoying it without going into the nooks and crannies of this world and trying to fix stuff for those people. I guess being there close up......has made my heart more sensitive. And God was right....we ARE more blessed.
Not because we may be able to MAKE the difference.....but because we SEE the injustices, feel them in our heart and CARE!
Can you imagine being born rich and not even having a clue? Yeah....we are more blessed!
