Have You Ever Felt Shock?

I just finished reading It's Not Okay With Me by Janine Maxwell. I am so numb from reading this book I can hardly stand it. I have had troubling sleeping and eating since starting it. It isn't for the faint of heart or a "light read."
Read it if you want to be challenged and makes changes in your world and the lives of orphans around the world. I have a link to the website Heart For Africa in my sidebar. This is Janine's organization.
Ask yourself these questions:
Is it ok that every 3 seconds a child dies of hunger?
Is it ok that everyday 30,000 children die of hunger?
Is is ok that every year 2.9 million children die of hunger/malnutrition?
Is it ok with you that 15 million children have been orphaned by AIDS?

You know what, It is Not OK with Me.
