Afghan Albatross

I’ve stopped watching the news or even listening to the radio. It’s just that bad. I can’t, I don’t want to, but still images and sound bites find their way to me like a bad dream. But it’s not a dream, it’s an ugly reality. Women beaten in public, people shot on the streets, desperate mobs of people, panicked and confused begging for help, children separated from their parents, people clinging to the exterior of airplanes for dear life. And now…..13 US Servicemen killed.
