The Refugee

I took a cab to work this morning because I wasn't feeling too well and I was running hella late..while talking to the guy, I find out that he was working for the UN's refugee program during a war and that he was unable to return to his ciuntry. When he first left, they killed members of his family and burned his house and took his vehicles. I asked himwhenthis war occurred and to my surprise he let me know that the war had not completely ended. I was shocked because I had never heard of this and I like pride myself as a person who pays attention to what's going on in the world. Well,this guy who once worked to help refugees is now a refugee himself. I couldn't imagine not being able to go home, but I suppose if my life is in danger I could get used to anything.
