The World is full of stories to be told. It might be hard to believe that Ledger's overdose or Hilton's birthday aren't the only things going on in the world. But there's a reality hidden from our eyes, tucked away in the recesses of our awareness. Every night men, women, and children drift into sleep amidst the poverty, disease and violence that is their existence. We don't want to know them. We don't want to see them. We are blissfully ignorant, and comfortably numb.
I want to change that.
About me: My name is Josh. I don't know how to describe myself. I'm a 28 year old. Well traveled, well weathered, poorly funded. I've been told I've done more than most people will in a lifetime. I feel like I've hardly scratched the surface. I'm scared to poke a hole into that surface, afraid I'll never come back. I believe in God. I believe there is evil. I've seen the residue of both, staining the hearts of men. Half the time I don't know what I'm talking about, the other half I wish I didn't. I've looked into the face of utter poverty, yet the despair was in my eyes, not his. Seven years old and he is a better man than I. I'll continue in my journey. Welcome aboard.
