Do we really do what is best for the helpless?

Do we really do what is best for the helpless?
When I say we I mean Human kind.
 The adults, the ones that have grown up.
The ones who are suppose to know better.
The ones who are to protect and serve in an honorable manner.
The ones who have learned how to share, listen, think 
and not react in a negative way. 

Us adults, do we think that we have arrived!
Do we think that we know all
 and
 can play the role of God?
Then and only then are we able
 to handle the consciences  of our choices?
Without blaming everyone but the source of the conflict.

What happens to our mind when we grow up?
We are to make this earth better.
We are to teach the younger generations the positive
and best way to interact with others. 
We are to show
 patience,
 mercy,
 grace
 and compassion.

Why have we not taken this role seriously?
Why do we think we can act 
and
 react like a child that does not know better!
We do know better....
We need to be the bigger one!
We need to not always look at our pride.
We need not to always push our way.
IF we do continue to push our way and make those choices, 
we need to be prepared for consequences!
I have had to put this pattern of behavior into practice lately.

I have to bite my tongue.
I have had to slow down my mouth
 and let it catch up with my thoughts.
I have taken the other person's thoughts, actions and behavior into consideration.
However, when the innocent and helpless suffer it makes it that much harder.
Therefore I am speaking out today.
Since Jan. 1st of this year the hasty, reaction to people's pride caused
hundreds of people to suffer.
We are not just suffering from the physical, we are also suffering emotionally.
The worse part of this is that the helpless children have to suffer.
Suffer emotionally, spiritually and physically. 
Since the ban on American adoptions, there has been
several children that have died.  
In the past two days
 two children have not been able to 
come home
 and
 feel the love and hope that a family can offer.
These precious little ones suffered
 from many different causes of neglect.
 
These children had the opportunity to see love when their
mamma's and papa's got to spend time with them.
They got to bond and feel what hope feels like,
 then what?!
Adults got hurt and thought that all the other adults where not playing nicely.
Let us call it as it is!
This ban has nothing to do with the past abuse or even death of 
children here in the States, 
if that was true then
 every case
 of abuse and neglect here, there, or any where 
 will play into that choice. 
We know that this is not happening.
I know that there are problems  with the adoption realm.
Let us be realistic there are many programs that are broken in
any nation, city, or state.

If the problem is:

 IF we as adults truly cared about the children's 
suffering here or abroad we would come up with a solution,

INSTEAD of pointing blame and trying to start a battle
with the wars of words!
These actions never help or solve the problem at hand!
We can justify our actions for our choices
 till we are blue in the face.
This does nothing but harm, scar, or even kill the little ones who are
counting on the sound mind and choices of us our adults!



Therefore,
 if we are adults,
 then let us
sit down and come up with a solution 
to help the helpless.
We need to do this before another child has to pay the price!
This can be fixed if we are willing to 
make better choices 
and 
put our own hurts,
scars
intentions
aside
for the best solution for the children.
I hate the fact that people have to suffer for 
poor choices of  others.
I hate this fact
 however,
 it is a fact!
I know that the thing I can control is my actions and re-actions.
I want for all of us to do that!
PLEASE
PLEASE
THE CHILDREN ARE COUNTING ON US!
