a deepness.

beyond borders remains one of my favorite movies from the past year.
grab it.
watch it.
listen to your heart.
it speaks to something deep.
perhaps i get caught up in the film...
with my desire to help hurting people...
with the dedication and self sacrifice of the characters in the film.
but we have something of greater worth to offer people.
better than food...medicine...and clothing.
a hope that will never fail.
yes, those other things are important.
but, how can i go on living the same way when people are hurting so much? they are literally dying.... only to face even greater agony.

oh...to offer people hope.
a hope that will not change with different political structures...

but, could i really offer any hope if i was in a situation depicted within the movie? or would i be a liability...? a hassle? i think that is my greatest fear.

I love that movie! I don't like Angelina Jolie...but I can look past that for the greatness of the movie.
