Contrast

More bombings in Iraq, as if there haven't been enough, 29 dead...Four American Baptist missionaries were killed in a drive-by shooting on Tuesday while they were working on a water-purification project. They knew it was a high risk mission going into Iraq, but they loved the Iraqis that they were ready to give up their lives there, and they did.

On the other side of the world, a girl got upset because she lost her library photocopying card which had $5 on it. She is stressed because she has 3 projects due in the coming 2 weeks. She got annoyed because one of her housemates is too busy watching Cricket games online to get himself some cold medication and instead asked her to supply him the medication he needed.

What a contrast at two different parts of the world.
