The 33 Wait.

" The world has always been ready to care about someone locked inside the earth. The empathetic fear is primal and timeless. The technology of telling us about the anguish has changed, but the essence of why we can't turn away has not. "


This is one of the most moving articles i've read regarding the 33 miners trapped in the San Jose Mine in Chile. While it's nearly impossible to read without tearing up, the voice it's written in sheds light on the connective threads that link the world in a beautiful way. Despite the daunting circumstances surrounding these 33 men right now, the writer sheds light on the silent stillness as the entire world channels massive amounts of innate hope and belief that all 33 will come out alive.
