    Haiti: Pushing the limits of human misery even further

    Back in 2008 I posted pictures and story of the devastation from a hurricane in Haiti, sent by friends of my employer who has two adopted children from Haiti, and who has also worked building clean water systems down there.

    At that time, I posed the question of what are the limits of human misery:

    Unfortunately, this abject nation once again tests those limits, and their population of poor continue to demonstrate how both terribly fragile and resilient the human animal is.

    I’m just not sure whether Haiti will be capable of coming back from this most recent blow.

    If there was ever a time for the world community to drop the fighting that consumes much of their time, energy and resources - and redirect it to Haiti in a positive manner - this is it.
