What can I accomplish here when there is such distance between
good people? When a heartfelt gift can twist into a gruesome
reminder of all that you still need? When you’re forced to make use
of it anyway?

Someone told me (perhaps they read it somewhere) that refugees
are forced into cement shoes and told, ‘Now you have roots.’ But
being held down isn’t roots. They are told not to move, to build a life
for a year, two years, to learn a culture they may soon leave behind

shouldn’t wanting a better life
be enough on its own? Isn’t being ‘underused’ in your twenties the
greatest tragedy for the mind and the spirit? Why should these men have to spend their lives idle and
mediocre with no hope of accessing their potential? Isn’t a wasted
life also a life that is in danger?
