Give.

Speaking of money expenditure, please get past the thinking stage and GIVE to some Hurricane Katrina relief. If you’re like me and have some PayPal credits sitting around, it is easy peasy to give to the United Way’s Hurricane Relief Response Fund. Just mosey on down to the PayPal homepage and you’ll find the link on the right.

CNN has this list of reputable charities from which to choose.

I know that my previous tongue-in-cheek ‘materialism’ entry will detract from this call to give; but if you haven’t responded to such heart- and gut-wrenching calls, then maybe a call that follows a despicably fluffy post will get you to open your wallet a bit. Who knows? Whatever works.

This isn’t about politics. Well, the situation is certainly political, but this particular post of encouragement is not. Whatever your reasons for shaking your angry fist at the t.v. screen after Kanye’s rant, you’ve got to feel something about this disaster. Channel it into vibes, prayer and aid.

I have faith. Honestly, it’s a bit hard right now to have such faith, but you’ve just got to believe in your fellow human beings. Band together, people. Band together.
