Day 17 - word of the day

wotd - 17.10.09

One of the other things I plan to do one day is to make a big difference somehow, somewhere.  Some people think having an ambition to change the world is a pipe dream but I don't.  Changing the world doesn't mean you need to be elected president of the US or anything.  It can be a small thing that makes a big difference.

I can't understand why we don't value human life on an equitable basis.  I don't understand why we continue to have such an enormous amount of poverty in the world when over the last 10 years the West has seen more wealth than it ever has before.

Stand up against poverty this weekend.  I am.
