Julius leaves tomorrow and I second the request that everyone pray specifically for the safety of Julius and his family. I ask prayers also for everybody in Kenya to individually make the decision to desist from violence. That wouldn't be a bad choice for this country, now that I think about it.<BR/> How little I knew when I met the beautiful people of Kenya lat summer that their situation to disintegrate to this level. I didn't fully understand how fragile their young democracy really was. I thought I had seen the terrible poverty but that it could erupt into such violence is incredible. I looked at my blog from last summer the other day and I see that I wrote something about there being "great beauty and death at every hand." Who knew how ugly it could get? When I wrote about the glorius beauty of Lake Nakuru that I wanted my father to see I could not have imagined that the town of Nakuru would now be overrun with refugees and having people being hacked to death there daily. Who could have imagined that my friends would now be at risk because they are of the "wrong" ethnic group and, worse yet, related to a prominent opposition politician. I have reached this advanced age only to be continually amazed at what we are willing to do to each other. <BR/> How long, indeed?<BR/> MamaEdnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
