Indifference

The opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it is indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it is indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it is indifference. -Elie Wiesel Coming close to having our first week in and  around the townships near Cape Town. I am reminded daily of the willingness and determination of the local communities to welcome us and offer the gift of hospitality. In the words of Mother Theresa, we are reminded daily that "we have been created for greater things, to love and to be loved." Peace from our family in South Africa. -James Cassidy, AIAIA "If you are to be true partners with God in the transformation of Her world, you must begin by understanding that as much as God loves you, God equally loves your enemies... God does not share our hatred, no matter what the offense we have endured. We try to claim God for ourselves and for our cause, but God's love is too great to be confined to any one side of a conflict or religion. Our prejudices, regardless of whether they are based on religion, race, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, or anything else, are absolutely and utterly ridiculous in God's eyes" -Desmond Tutu...
