I suppose that I could go off on a long, depressing rant about The War -- but frankly, I don't like to dwell on it, and there are other people out there who ruminate on the subject with much more eloquence anyway.
There's a part of me that is overwhelmed with guilt because of my preference to ignore, as best I can, the goings-on in Iraq at the moment; there is a part of me that questions whether it is un-Christian to be as disinterested as I am. But then, isn't it worse to remain glued to the television or CNN.com, watching the media representation of something almost none of us have ever truly experienced, and being fascinated by and engrossed in death and destruction?
And while I may turn away from the constant newsfeed, I still pray for the souls who are involved in this. At this point, I think the only thing left to do is pray: pray that this whole ordeal is over with relative swiftness, that there will be as little damage as possible.
So now I'm going to bury my head in the sand again, and return to the more frivolous things in life.
Like this gorgeous cover art. I wish I could illustrate like that. Seeing stuff like this almost makes me want to break out my colored pencils and go nuts. Almost.
