X-mass , Iraq , the poor , the lost
I sit here and often wonder since this is the internet and it costs money to have plus you need a home , what about those who have no voice here with none of these things , who speaks for them .

Who speaks for all those lost in Iraq and who spekas for those who are lost in this so called land of the free , america .

I am saddened by this and I feel their pain because I have been affected by the american down sized economy and if things don't change sometime soon I will become one of the millions of the lost and forgotten .

X-mass is difficult for me to get into this year , it has been difficult for the last few years gone by . I felt a sense of guilt while so many suffer and are out of the reach of the tech world .

Many may suffer alone , many may suffer with others . Why is this still happening , are we not all part of this so called america ? If not than who are we really ?

1. That's a great question. Who are we, really?

2. When people cannot advocate for themselves,
or cannot do so independently, we need to do it for them. Those who are poor, those who have disabilities, those who are oppressed, etc. We need to take up their cause.
