… without watching BCC or CNN for an update on this ridiculous war between Israel and Lebanon. While we try to reserve this blog just for business topics, sometimes I find it necessary to pontificate, or just vent, on the state of the world.
For all of our perceived forward progress, we are just one step away from being barbarians. I’m definitely not a “glass is half empty” kind-of person. But this current bout of warfare is really too much.
The majority of us Americans can’t even come close to empathizing with with the Lebanese or Israelis. My biggest concern this weekend is whether I will go mountain biking or kayaking. In my spare time, I’m working and and watering the garden. My refrig is stacked and my neighborhood is safe (basically). I really have want or need for nothing. I would wager your life is pretty great too. (especially if you have the time to read this post).
Unfortunately, in our cushy lives, we are pretty helpless to change the events in the Middle East. But maybe, just maybe, we will elect some politicians who will do something to affect big, BIG change in this world and stop this senseless killing. We waste way too much energy re-doing and undoing and re-doing again.
