Tracy Chapman

I absolutely adore this song. I’m actually learning it on my (ghetto) guitar and it’s super easy.

It reminds me of how important is it that those who are disadvantaged have a voice… I think if we actually heard what they have to say, we’d probably find a way to connect more earnestly as opposed to relying on the assumptions we make about the guy on the corner with the cardboard sign to know what these people go through.

Talk to people! We’re all human, right?

In reality, each time I think about and see images of the shit that happens in the world I feel quite hopeless because it’s so complicated… development is complicated. And then I don’t know where to place myself within the mess as I have my own opinions about short-term development projects…. bah. God is in control, right? Tough stuff.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends. Go spend time with your family!! (not shopping, please…don’t go shopping)
