A few years ago, I was showing a friend a video of the tsunami that had hit a few days before in Indonesia. They were blown away by it but they proceeded to ask me when it had happened. I was speechless, considering the tsunami was on every headline and news channel at the time. Not hearing about a natural disaster wiping out over 230,000 people really says something about your awareness of world events, if not your character. Consequently, I became obsessed with creating media presentations to promote world awareness about the pain and suffering in the world. I just want people to see how fortunate they are to live in the U.S. and to be compassionate about something other than themselves.
