Okay, so I'm going to try something new. I'm going to go all political on ya'll! Now, usually I HATE politics and everything about them, but this struck me. I feel the need to share it and get it out there!
Okay, so first, watch the video. This whole thing will make a lot more sense if you do, and the guy can explain it way better than I ever could. You've watched it? Alright cool. So take a couple seconds and thing about all the thing ( I call them middle class white people problems) that you have complained about today. Here are some of mine
1. Dang! Why do I have to wake up early every morning!?
2. My bed is to warm too get out of!
3. Why do I have all this homework!
4. I don't want to wait in line for food!
5. I don't want to go to my last period!
6. I'm tired
7. We have nothing to eat!
and the list goes on and on. But as you have seen from the video, our problems are so much less than theirs. We need to help our fellow man. We must pull together and make a statement! and who knows, this could define our generation! We can stop Kony in his tracks and save all those millions of people. I know our lives aren't perfect and we have our own concerns and all that jazz, but come one. We can at least take 30 minutes out of our day and raise awareness about this horrendous issue. We can do it! We don't want to look back on this and tell our future generation of how we almost helped or how we were thinking about it, we want to say how we raised awareness and stopped a murderer/ rapist/ crime against humanity. I know we can. I believe in America!
Much love and apologies for the preachy-ness
