people are still good.

"Depicted in this photo, an image from an anonymous source on the ground in Egypt, is a team of Egyptian Christians forming a massive human shield to protect their Muslim countrymen as they prayed during the violent protests yesterday. Beauty amid the chaos."

i was a bit overcome with emotion when i saw this photo.  we keep hearing about all these terrible, confusing and violent protests in egypt and it is just exhausting and shocking. 
i am grateful to be in a place of safety and freedom. america is not perfect, but i sure do love it.
and i am so thankful to people that are courageous enough to be compassionate amongst the hatred.
