2nd January, 2008.
What a world we live in. I was so shocked to see the dreadful pictures of the violence in Kenya. All about power struggle as usual, but the ordinary people are the ones who are suffering. They look so poor and helpless and absolutely terrified.Don’t know how it’s going to be resolved, but hope it will be soon. I vaguely remember the trouble there about fifty years ago, when the Kikuyu people rebelled against the British and there were terrible atrocities on both sides.
I feel so ashamed sometimes, going on about my own life, when there’s all this sorrow going on world wide, especially when children are involved. It makes me question my faith sometimes.
John used to tell me to stop worrying about all the world's misfortunes, as I can't put the world to rights, so I'll go and get a book from his room.Maybe take my mind of things.
