I see freedom and opportunity

The last week of graduate school... After 18 straight years of education, I should be worth something to the world, no? Ironically, I am finishing up my thesis on Somalia, which has been "governmentless" for as long as I have been in school, and "less than worthless" to the world with its glorious contribution to piracy and general lawlessness.

Thats really something to think about.

As I look forward to my freedom from this long, and at times difficult process, I wonder when Somali's will be free and considered valuable to the world. And when for Afghans and Iraqis? For Burmese and Thai?
