Get Real

Try living on less than a dollar a day. Two hundred and thirty-three million Africans do it, a.k.a. the extremely poor. These are the world's most positive - positive with HIV.

And these are the H.O.P.E. positive, like no supped-up-jetsetter-star-studded superficial life can ever wrangle up. They are brothers and sisters full of brilliance and determination, skill and imagination asking brothers and sisters to follow a few simple instructions.

"Love the Lord with all your heart and wil all you soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: "Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandement greater than these." (Mark 12:30-31).

This is their time. This is your time. Face the light of the Son and don't turn away. Embrace AIDS.
