This is not acceptable to me.

It is Monday.  There is a ton I want to work on.  As a result, I am not sure what to start on.  I am writing as a starting point.  I want to check on the animals, work on our fundraiser…I just did a list.  Lists do help give a focus.

I am listening to the radio about certain Muslim schools in Sudan where kids are chained, beaten and rapped. This is not the world I want to live in.  This is not acceptable to me.  I talk about accepting diversity, but this approach I cannot accept.

I want diversity to a point. When this diversity becomes so pernicious, so contrary to my point of view, to my values, I will not support it, I do not accept it. I am not sure what to do about it.  I want to encourage hope and appreciation, but it is difficult when I have no idea how I can help these kids.

I am not going to give up.

I am thankful for this opportunity.
