| Posted by Felicia Aguilar on 07/31/11 at 01:41 PM Tragic, but I am sure everyone can relate to this. You've managed to capture such sadness and empathy in such a beautiful framework. |

| Posted by Rula Shin on 10/19/11 at 02:55 AM Yes, it's heartbreaking and I wonder if the people in those commercials are really their advocates, and besides, who is responsible for their plight? Is it someone at a great distance from us or is it we ourselves, each man projecting his human nature in his small surrounding contributing to the world at large. A poignant reminder George that we must never take for granted what we have nor become insensitive to our part in what others don't have. Nicely done. :-) |
| Posted by Ken Harnisch on 10/20/11 at 12:20 PM you need not apologize George for writing such a magnificent piece. You've opened many a blind eye and the little guy could not have had a more compelling champion! |
| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 11/03/11 at 01:34 PM how can you say it better? this ode of yours, George has all the earmarks of Ode Of The Century, and it merits such in my estimation. What you have penned here my friend is a toothbrush for the soul on whose surface tartar has been building up of late or forever. and to begin to break down such tartar requires such a toothbrush as you have manufactured, George with your hands in concert with your heart. |
