Rebuild

In the wake of the day, surrounded by an impoverished neighborhood which cried out from the cracks in the concrete. I realized something had to be done. And I for one couldn’t sit back and just do nothing. With tears in my eyes and a deep burning in my soul to uplift the community around me, it hit me like a dump truck full of old memories labeled as trash. I ran through the house waking up my seven children in a plea of excitement singing “today is the day, today we unit with humanity and pull together as one in an effort to Rebuild the land in which we were created”! As they wiped away the sleep from their eyes while looking at me as though I’d lost my mind, they jumped up with curiosity wanting to know where I was going with all of this!
