Sometimes I think we'd rather turn a blind eye to that kind of tragic suffering, but if we can do nothing else, we should see what they are going through, offer our prayers for them every day... such suffering as we cannot begin to imagine. I too remember vividly watching on TV the Ethiopian children when I was younger, and those images have stayed with me and always will. "Sad" does not begin to describe it.. It is indeed beyond heartbreaking, and something we should always remember.
