Footage of kids wading through The French Quarter, with smaller kids on their backs, sacks of not much under their arms, smiling at the camera. What I would give to be handing them bowls of chicken and rice in my kitchen and tucking them under blankets on my couch, letting my hounds up with them to snuggle them into dreamless sleep.

Do you know why

the depth of your ability to empathize astounds me... is that true about the welfare checks? damn.

Yeah,that's what was reported.I know. Stuck with no way out.
My empathy seems so worthless, you know? Giving money,clothes, household stuff,just doesn't seem adequate.
I heard some radio guy talking about people here in Charleston offering their homes, and I'm trying to imagine how that would go over. We have this big unused room over our garage, still connected to the house, that has always made me feel...excessive.But how do you know your getting people who you would share a roof with?I feel I should walk the walk if I'm gonna talk the empathy talk, but am I brave enough?
