(Inter-)National Mourning

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/7407119.stm

Sometimes we wonder why we officialise mourning when we are already in mourning and will continue long after the national period is up. Yet this, too, is an expression of grief.

People die everyday, but we will feel it most keenly when we have been to that area, or seen the damage in that country, or call that place home, be they Darfur, Myanmar, China or any other place in the world.

There is going to be a fundraising event in the SUB on May 21st, held by World Vision, I believe. If you can, please donate what you can afford to give. Thank you.
