My friend's mom died this morning, of cancer, at the age of 49.  I hate that there is nothing I can do, but it reminds me why I'm here.  No one should die of cancer... no one should die of cancer at such a young age.  I know that there are far to many things that cause cancer - I also know that things can be done to prevent cancer, but it's not, in the name.... economics? 
It's horrible to live in a world where affluence kills people.
It's horrible to live in a world where there is so much pain for no reason.
I want to make things better.
I want everyone to feel like I do right now.
I simply can't understand.
