This is a time to set our differences aside and help people regardless of anything else. Those are all human beings in trouble out there and they need help.
I cannot personally offer meaningful help in person, however, my employer has started a disaster relief fund and I will be sending them a check.
Excellent post.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
