Divided We Fail
I’ve been watching a lot of CNN and Fox News lately, regarding all sorts of issues. I got tired of the repetitive crap they broadcast elsewhere (aside from my usual Disney Channel and Nickelodeon networks). Glenn Beck has been a recent favorite of mine. There’s a new movie coming out called “I.O.U.S.A” that I’ll be watching Thursday night. It is a documentary film on our current economic crisis and all the ways we can act to make a change. I guess moving to China has sparked my interests more than ever on world issues. I’ve been selectively committing myself to small community service programs when what I really want to do is be on a broader scale, something more international and effective towards a better future for all.
I guess it really got to me recently, some of us are too paralyzed on our own personal issues that we neglect to act upon everything else happening around us. Not to say that there aren’t many wonderful humanitarians. Being well-rounded and doing things not only for yourself, but for others as well. I ,for one, hope to one day be more then just a face on the surface of this earth. Not to only make an impact for others but to also show them a path towards humanitarian acts.
I chose to get back into blogging to update my community on the things I’ve been able to accomplish. I come from the same streets and backgrounds as you and promote that if someone like me can pursue it, you can too -attitude.
