Overwhelming

It is overwhelming how much help is needed.
It is overwhelming how many people are willing to help.
It is overwhelming how many ways there are to show support.
It is overwhelming how many people will try to stop something good.

The good that is being done cannot and will not be stopped. Teachers from all over the country want to find a way to send money, supplies, and cards to those hurting and in need. Children are finding ways to provide for other children.

I am overwhelmed that I am in the position to help. It could have been me. It could have been my home. It could have been my school. It could have been my students. The saying "it is better to give than to receive" couldn't be more true. How fortunate are we as donors?
