Don't you dare preach at me

Don't preach at me, don't bully me, don't tell me what to do or feel about Haiti or any other human suffering for that matter, and let's face it there's plenty. By all means ask me to contribute/donate/help. Just don't you ever judge me or treat me like I'm the cause of the suffering because you suspect I may not have donated. I might choose to look away, I might not. I might choose to give, I might not. i will definitely choose to hope, and to give silent thanks to those on the ground desperately trying to bring to relief to those poor wretched lives. I'm big on empathy. I can do empathy till the cows come home. The rest is my business, between me and my conscience. Let's leave it that way, back off buddy!
