The good outweighs the bad by a long way. I read a lovely quote by a UN aid worker the other day that I wish I could find, but to paraphrase it said no matter where she went in the world, no matter what disaster - hurricane, earthquake, typhoon - there would always be a bunch of kids kicking a makeshift ball around between two sticks, laughing and playing. It's called the beautiful game for a reason.

I found this great article while looking for that quote. http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/20...oy/berlin-text
