Blog Action Day 08
2008
Today is Blog Action Day.
Today, Everyone across the internet are focusing their posts and energies on one topic today : POVERTY.
The goals are a simple one : Awareness, Action and Change.
I’m not going to pretend that I understand poverty. I have never experienced it. I’ve never been hungry for more than a few hours (if that), I have never been put in the situation where I am too hot, too wet, too cold, too tired and been powerless to rectify it.
When I am sick, I have come to *expect* healthcare and when I’m down I have my group of friends and family around to get me through it and pull me out the otherside.
So, whats the point of this blog? What I’m doing is contributing to bring awareness to the world.
Nothing Else…. it’s a simple one really.
Hopefully I haven’t missed the point of Blog Action Day ’08 – Apologies if I have.
