Haiti

i don't know how quite to explain this frustration.

My homepage is the Globe and Mail website and for the past two days, every time i opened my internet browser (which is all the time), the first thing I see are photos of the devastation and chaos in Haiti. I don't know who to complain to because it is so unfair for an earthquake to hit the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere - the country that is guaranteed to have one of the highest number of deaths and damages if a earthquake should hit, as it two days ago. Then of course, an earthquake is but a natural disaster so I can't blame a natural disaster for a 'decision' that it did not make.

Another thing that frustrates me is the fact that I am just sitting here. Of course it is totally unrealistic for any of us to pack our bags, go to the airport, and try to hail the next flight to Haiti to go and 'help out', but there should be more than just sitting here and reading the updates. Donating to the Red Cross alleviated this frustration slightly but I still feel like I didn't do enough.

These guys are in Haiti right now, helping out. Read what they have to say.
