A couple nights ago before the press and the crowd came, I sat on a corner and stared at a deceased person, lying in the street. My thoughts were mostly about how I could get out of this Godforsaken place. I told my co-workers how I watched a bloody murder scene last night and they were shocked and horrified. I have somehow become accustomed to this place and except for the sobbing man next to me, I was not really affected.
Today I was reminded of the good we've done in this community and the how even in the worst of circumstances, we do some good. I try to remember the smile of a little girl given toys and crafts by the community shortly before she died. I try to remember the joy and miracle that is Baby Isaac Early and what his smile brought to my life. This is why some of us must stay. This is our purpose for staying.....
