i realize i spend a lot of my time staring out the window at the cruel injustices within my own life. i do not do anything about them but comment on them like the weather. It's as if my very nature is to further encourage the unjust and vile things in this world by talking more than walking.
Yesterday as i was reading the book Jesus Wants to Save Christians i felt like there was too much going on for me to sit idly at my window. i decided i would protest the american gluttony by eating only one meal a day. i just want to draw America's attention to the fact that people in many parts of the world are starving to death while we throw out at least 10% of the food we buy.
americans eat three meals a day while many people eat three meals a week
where is the justice in that?
why is america concerned with protection when we should be concerned with generosity?
why is america about the latest in everything while starving children struggle to remember the last meal they ate?
could america be any more wrong?
could we be any more wrong?
