And brown to white.

Six years is a really long time.

You could get a couple degrees in six years. Get married and have a bunch of kids. Have countless meals and holidays and relationships and jobs.

You can grow up in six years.

This whole Ingrid Betancourt thing has me over analyzing everything from this summer to the entire human population. I'm sure you've all heard of this "stellar" rescue operation, but if not read about it here.

But what I really want you to do is watch this news clip on mute. Seriously, turn off the sound, the newscaster is dumb and ruins the moment. The clip was taken right after Betancourt's kids stepped off the plane. The first time they've seen their mom in six years.

Just watch them and start thinking.
