Bassin Zim Waterfall - a means to a better life

Janelle,
From your comments, you appear to value your rare visit to the beautiful falls as a reward for having been "brave enough" to make the visit.

I was stunned by your self-serving opinion -- perhaps because, ironically, you were there on a mission trip.
Did you enjoy the darkness from a room with a light, perhaps even a fan?

The "very rough and rustic roads" you "loved" are the broken lifelines to healthcare and decent livelihoods.

I hope you will spare Haitians any future privilege of your help and stay home...wired with electricity to light your rooms...cool your food...cool your air...power your computer, television, radio, coffee pot, hair dryer.

As a fellow Christian, your comments made me hang my head in shame.
