Night/Theatrical Muse Challenge
Why is it that things that seem one way in the light of day, appear so vastly different by the darkness of night? I don't think the realization of just how much that could be true hit home until the first time I served with Medecins Sans Frontieres in a war-zone. Working within the camp with all of the sounds of life during the day it was easy to ignore the explosions and gunfire in the distance, but, the same could not be said about the nights.
I remember the first night I spent in a war-zone, standing at my tent-flap watching the tracers as they lit the night's sky. I couldn't help but wonder how many lives would be lost once their target was found. Here I was, here we were, trying to save lives though-out the day and with the coming of night it was all undone. What was the point? I can't deny the frustration that came over me, that still comes over me when I realize that it's never going to change.
