A little girl will be buried today.
A child born on a day of great sorrow and who left our extended family in another day of sorrow. The least we who remain in this world where children are not treasured enough can do is to honor her memory with a day of peace and start working earnestly on a nation at peace with itself and the world. It starts with each one of us, here and now.

Play and splash, little one, and godspeed.

1. Yeah, and probably a few Afghani ones too.
God speed to them too, eh.

5. One thing at a time, please.
This thread is about one thing. Your comment is about another thing. Please don't change the subject in someone else's thread. You can always start your own on the subject you want to discuss.

2. Beautiful
Shame we can't unite as one on a day like today - as we did on the day she was born.
