reality check




Today I had a black cloud over my head. (I can't believe they said that! How annoying! Poor me!) But after I got home and saw the images of the turmoil in Egypt on CNN, I was instantly humbled. With all my quitting and life changing, I've been a little (okay, a lot) self-obsessed as of late. But watching those people marching in Liberation Square reminded me of the great scope and the great bravery of the world beyond my little fortunate bubble. The injustices happening there right now take my breath away, and I'm holding the warm, wonderful Egyptian people in my heart.
