Today is the day that aid organizations are meeting to discuss the plan of recovery for Haiti...I pray with Haitians in the lead. I mentioned in a post below about the kite-flying in Haiti while I was there....how I would see young children with a plastic bag tied to a string and rooted on a tin can lid. They would run and fly their kite with laughter and joy on their faces. There was a certain freedom and hope that lived in those moments and it is that hope that I cling to for Haiti....that hope would be realized in it's most tangible forms.
I discovered that there are other kites in Haiti that can be purchased and while I made several attempts to capture an image of the kites I saw while we were driving the roads, I never succeeded. Ben, on the other hand, has gorgeous photos of kite-flying in Haiti. I leave you with images that hold out
HOPE.
