Thanks for adding to the conversation.

Last night a group of us from Indy Metro Church were able to give away free beds to extremely underpriveledged people living in The Barton Towers (government housing on Mass Ave). I spoke with one gentleman who was obviously very grateful for his new bed. He said that he had been sleeping, in his room, on the floor, ever since he had moved in about 5 weeks prior. Sleeping on a hard, cold, tiled floor, without a bed.

The things I take for granted every day are outstanding. I would never think of sleeping night after night, in my own house, on the floor, unable to afford a clean bed, sans bed bugs, sans clean sheets. It rarely occurs to me that I am surrounded, daily, by people who are desperately in need of love, attention and help. Let’s never forget them. Let’s never stop loving them. Let’s never cast them aside as irregular or \not normal\. So many of the things we consider \normal\ are so irregular it’s laughable.

Thanks for the great thoughts guys.

We don’t spend near enough time looking behind ourselves and thinking, “Boy, there are just so many things that I do have.”

How many of the things that we do every day are not normal? Making phone calls, typing responses to blogs, using advanced technology. Our world is terrifying unequal, and we spend most of our lives being unaware of the inequality.
