Author Notes
I don't want your vote but I do think we should all stop and seriously think about all those children that are suffering and dying.
The numbers are staggering ....we have so much , too much...let's not pretend they don't exist... let's donate to some charitable cause working to save them or even just say a prayer for these children.
