I only wish for half of their strength

World Refugee Day

Nearly 10 million displaced across the globe
And I cry today because I feel so helpless
14% increase since 2002
This has to stop

Take a moment today and imagine your life tomorrow
without
a roof on your head
clothing on your back
shoes on your feet
food in your stomach
limbs that have been torn off
children whose parents have been murdered
sisters who have been raped
brothers turned into martyrs and child soldiers
a place to call home
