"Yes, I have Hope, Despite Everything
I have hope at this moment, Even if it seems irrational" , quote from Edwidge Danicat.
As we arrive at the two year anniversary of a most terrible event, let us remember those who perished by putting aside our differences and making a conscious decision to rebuild both physical structures and the invisible thread that ties all of humanity together. While we have different ideas and vantage points, there exist a subtle reality in which we are united in a bigger picture, for better or for worse. It is this truth that compels us to act when we are faced with incredible odds and strife. It is this truth that moves us to lend a hand to one another, forgetting the imaginary lines of society. It is this truth that causes one to feel hopeful, despite the seemingly long road to recovery. The world is full of amazing stories in which miraculous endings pleasantly surprise. Let us make sure we can add Haiti to those chronicles. Peace
NOU BOUKE'
