I received a phone call at 2am yesterday morning that Chris was on his way home! He arrived in Roanoke at 5:30 safe and sound. The journey is long from over, but I, for one, am happy to have him here -- for awhile at least. And I know he is grateful to be home, but I also know that so much of his heart stayed there. I can't predict what the future holds, but I can say without reservation that the people of Haiti have a long road to recovery ahead of them. Something like this does more than break bodies and buildings, it breaks minds and hearts. And there is much to be done.
Over the next few days, we're going to take some time to decompress and try to figure some things out. But I'm not letting any of you off the hook so easily. I am personally asking you to continue the efforts you've already taken. I'm asking you to continue spreading the word and increasing awareness of the immense nature of this catastrophe. I'm asking you to strengthen your own resolve to be an agent of change.
So welcome home, Chris, and to the rest of you? Welcome to the revolution.
