We have a shelter here in town for women and children who were abused and they are having a drive to collect clothing and anything else useful. I have a huge collection of stuffed animals and so I gathered them up and took them over to the shelter for the kids. Most were set aside to be wrapped up for Christmas but some were handed out right then and the looks on these little faces made me cry all the way home. I doubt I could survive if I had to see these kids and countless others in far worse condition and be able to do nothing. I guess maybe Oprah and others are right and I stand corrected, and humbled by the thought of poor children languishing anywhere in this world. Children are children and should never have to suffer from hunger or disease or anything else unpleasant...
