Re: LZ Granderson's "I Am Tired" article (full)

I am tired of females dying because of domestic violence. I am tired of hearing about children dying because of abuse and neglect. I am tired of hearing about millions of babies being aborted every year. I am tired of hearing about the massacres of men, women and children in Syria. I am tired of hearing of Christians being forced to leave their homes or die, because they are Christian. I am tired of hearing about race being the issue. I am tired of hearing that low caste children in India, China, and other places around the world are working as child slaves to make the products that I enjoy every day.... yes, I am tired of hearing about it... so, because I am tired of hearing about it, maybe I need to do something about it!

That something involves giving of my time, my prayers, my $$ and whatever else I can do to help those who are hurting and in need... and instead of whining about how "tired" I am... it is time to do something.
