I have been trying to get a hold of @Kak off and on since the storm hit Houston a week ago.
He called me once maybe the day after to let me know he is OK, and now he's too busy to return my calls.
Why?
He's spending his time in Houston in the community. Getting his hands really dirty. Sheetrock, insulation. Helping. All day. Every day.
Because he can.
You get to see what people are made of when they respond to help the least of us, during true windows of darkness.
You're not reading about him in the newspaper, or seeing him on Fox News. He doesn't care. He's out there with contractor bags, and hopefully rubber gloves... helping people.
Right where he should be. Right where WE should be.
Here's me, sitting in my office, hammering him on my speed dial and pissed that he's not sitting around taking my call. He's not hanging around the forum. He's not sitting in his dry house in a peninsula of Houston.
He's out helping people. Being the hands and feet of Jesus.
Here's to the heroes like @Kak that understand where the internet personas stop, and where the real world is. Here's to the heroes in Houston that are shining a light in the darkness.
BTW @Kak when you see this, your voice mail message wasn't funny. You are too much like me.
