THE BIG PICTURE




Who is looking at it?

Everywhere we turn, all we see is need. No matter how much we've done and given out, knowing that others are doing the same, it seems we're not making a dent. There are places that have not been reached. Meanwhile, there is the problem of plastics and styrofoam containers--the double-edged sword of relief. We use them to get goods out fast so that people can be helped. And yet, and yet....where is everything going? Garbage collection and processing..who's taking care of that?

Horrific stories abound. Most people I know who have been tirelessly working to get help out are already feeling as though they are being pulled every which way. The government, as usual, is performing poorly. Do they have the big picture? Are they ready for the coming storm?

What do we do with all the questions?
