Colors

Without color, what would our world look like?

Tuesday, I struggled with the ignorance of human beings. The Dominican Republic is beautiful with many colors of skin and eyes, but like the rest of the world some individuals lack tolerance for another race. I was completely shocked at remarks that came out of mouths about Haitians. These mouths were children.

I not only hope for tolerance, but I hope for love.

These week at camp has been one of the hardest things I have ever done and words cannot describe my emotions or the struggles. I am completely exhausted and I have found that all I can do is love. There are times during the day when I have to sit back and remember the love I have for these kids.

I think the Beatles had it right when they said "All you need is love."
