Seth Shares a Positive Moment in Iraq
If you haven't done so yet, be sure to check out Seth's blog.
His latest entry gives gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling - the side of Seth that he doesn't often share.
Flower Power
I had a mission to one of the water treatment plants in Baghdad today. While we were waiting around a bunch of kids swarmed us. I gave them water and candy and in return one of the little girls went and picked a flower for me (look at the picture below). I thought it was pretty cool so I am posting it.I like knowing that I am making a difference here. The difference may be small but I like to think that we need to help on a personal level instead of just sending a check to some relief organization. Just talking and interacting with the locals shows them that we are not monsters like some say we are. Sorry no rants :(. Later.
