I saw the beauty in my own country, and it was inspiring. So why can’t we extend this feeling beyond moments of unexpected tragedy to include the long-term problems of the known reality? Why do so many turn away when they are asked about the millions of homeless freezing every winter? Why does a natural disaster have to happen to open our hearts? Nothing is stronger than when a community comes together, and America is a community. It is made up of so many different people, but we are all in this together.
