heroes

All too often we are captivated by horrific yet true stories that are seemingly unfathomable. Whether it’s our poor response to natural disasters as in Hurricane Katrina, acts of terrorism as in 9/11, or school shootings as in Columbine High School. Then there are stories like Shaniya Davis whose mother treated her own daughter as a commodity and sold her to sexual human trafficking…now dead. These stories affect the families directly associated with them as well as many of us who get a glimpse via newspapers or television.
