Only The Good Die Young.

Sometimes we are blessed by people who are guided by a spirit that is more concerned with healing. The obvious choices are Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Ghandi, Mother Theresa and all those who served as the Prophets that guide our spiritual beliefs. Some are lesser known as they toil in their area of compassion. You know who they are, but most likely they will die without ever making it to the Oprah Show.

I invite you to look at a memorial to the life of Kevin Carter, who was a shining example of a life that went far beyond the usual realms of caring. He used his camera to document the incredible suffering that our fellow humans, especially children, experience. It is an awful, tragic and deeply moving tribute to his life's work.

I recommend that you watch it more than once, as it will shock you. But I think it's important to be shocked now and then. Perhaps this will help you to decide what's really important in your life. Which may make you, ultimately, a better being.
