may be another ones treasure!

Walking up the alley by a new construction dumpster, I see 'new' stuff has been dumped!      So,  what?  

A green suitcase on top caught my eye....and peeking in four and five boxes of 'new' books just dumped into a construction dumpster..balls of yarn and an unfinished knitted covering of some sort with a bent needle..well, that is trash, but for some people who go to the Goodwill and for persons in third world countries such  as

TOBASSCO MX which  has just been hit by a   catrastrophic  flood !!  those items may be donated to many churches, second hand stores, and certainly do'nt belong in a construction dumpster  was my thinking....sad.

 Just not far away persons spend the night on their flooded homes rooftops in the cold, rain.  awaiting rescue for their weren't enough helicopters to take out those affected...Many likely loosing their possessions, so think about WHAT you are putting into our construction dumpsters with  our local  landfills filling up fast...

---the books weren't moldy, or even well-used. --- libraries also take donations of books to be sold to the public for donations of 10  cents  or more. For those in low income, bargain hunting becomes a passion.....Salvation Armies and RedCross also take donations for those who have been in a catatrophy such as Katrina.

 I also was thinking of the poor countries in Africa whose adoption agencies would love to have a variety of well-used books, meaning they were popular for someone who paid full price.. And with my heart felt thoughts on other countries:

Many refugees also 'lost'  their belongings with the fleeing immigrants from war-torn Iraq, please flood President Bush,  with  'ITS TIME TO LEAVE...we caught SADDAM...'   And you know whose threat>>>>>>> The threat:  we'll come from the North and the south and the east and the west, shouldn't be taken lightly...<<<<<<

When Islam accepts other freedoms to worship the world will be a more peaceful place.
