special

last night we donated a few winter clothing, such as scarves & mittens,  to kimberly and her drive to raise awareness & bring light to a special group of children, particularly navajo children who are currently residing at st michaels special education association living homes...when she spoke of their setting, the song 'skin' from sixx am was in my thoughts.  i begin to think of folks i have not met. i wonder how they see a world around them...how the shield of family has been lowered or maybe its there yet become so use to a pattern, the concept of love is eroding ;  it must hard on the families when they themselves are face with such reality...i could not even judge...there are just no words...how can i help them let along their child...what are we to do as a whole...as a community to provide the necessary care and support that will enable them to feel and grow with love...

i feel through our efforts and Kims along with the ASU Winter Clothing Drive team , we are making a difference...i hope with this little contribution it will keep a child, a young girl or adult,  from feeling the coldness of the wind ...


from 'skin' by sixx am
"Just rise above this
Kill them with your kindness
Ignorance is blindness
They're the ones that stand to lose

'Cause they don't even know you
All they see is scars
They don't see the angel
Living in your heart

Let them find the real you
Buried deep within
Let them know with all you got
That you are not your skin"
