however i don’t have to justify myself to a random stranger. you don’t like my “piety”, don’t read. i can assure you it matters not one whit to me, because i sleep fine at night.

you’ve had your fun here. toodle-oo dearie.

(ETA: for those of you playing along at home, i’ve taken the liberty of deleting any further comments from my esteemed reader [who, perplexingly, accused me of "closing off the debate"? not sure what the debate *was* exactly? that i shouldn't reflect on how lucky i am, or think about others less fortunate than myself? how controversial of me!] because, well… it’s my blog, not an open forum for personal critique of jen.)

Whilst you gazed out the window the other night thinking of those poor Zimbabweans, did you stop to think of doing anything other than giving yourself a great call-out in your blog for
walking a few hundred yards up the road to place an X in a box? I’d hate to read what you would think of yourself if you actually did something that mattered to their cause.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve done sweet f.a. to help them either. But I think it counts for so much more when people have humility when speaking/blogging/talking of such issues.

well done on the sarcasm, dude. really clever stuff.

that’s the problem with the internet – everyone with a keyboard thinks they’re witty.
