   This one always makes me sad . . .
   And now I have to face the day ready-depressed. What’s the point of life if you leave the house ready-depressed?

   After speaking with friends in New York, I felt the need to re-post this cartoon in order to share awareness that, in the wake of Super-Storm Sandy, there are still many thousands of low-income families whose homes are completely ruined, and now have nowhere to go.
   They are facing a freezing cold New York winter without any of the things that make such harsh conditions bearable, let alone comfortable.
   If you haven’t already given support to those groups who are helping desperate people on the ground, then please consider making a donation of money, goods or services to the American Red Cross.

   PS: I also raise my hat to Superpun, who undertook the Winter Sleep Out challenge earlier this year, to raise funds for the homeless in Australia. His selfless act is a wonderful example to the more self obsessed and morally depraved lost bears, which seems to be most of us.

   Like the one in the southern states where most of the homeless were black. I wonder if they had as much support as the white people had. I speak as someone who has mixed race cousins and often think that the black people (who didn’t ask to be there in the first place) get the worst deal.

   That’s a great message and reminder to us all, BTG.

   Amazing Comic BTG.. Amazing Message.. And although it is supposed to be sad, I find it optimistic. There are so many of us (people) who feel that we can’t go on without more, that we can’t survive, so they keep trying and trying to get a head. This comic shows that eventhough you may feel like you don’t have enough, there are so many who are worse off than you, so many that would fight for the scraps of what we consider useless junk, or food…It puts everything in perspective. As many lost bears have said before, BTG… Amazing..

    The answer to any disaster is community. We should not need to wait for such catastrophes as Sandy to care for our neighbours, especially the old, lonely, sick and disabled. Communities are built on kindness and mercy. Sharing what we have with those that have nothing. The more we have, the greater is our responsibility to the hungry and homeless. If you are Jewish or Christian, read Job 31. Christians, read 1 John 4 as well. End of sermon.

    Unfortunately, these days, people shout about being poor when what they mean is that, after buying cigarettes and booze, they can’t feed their children and thay can’t remember who the fathers are.

    @pcolli

    So, we keep everything we have for ourselves? We ignore the needs of our neighbours? We care about no-one and no-one cares for us? Sounds really, really lonely to me. Glad it’s not where I live.
