The Moon Doth Shine
Dear Reader,
Being brought up in one of the most cut-off provinces of a third-world country, I’ve always wondered how, in my own small way, I could make a difference in this world. I don’t want to be a spectator, and watch this world blow past me in a blur. I want to make a difference; a better place for you, dear Reader, and me. Is it too much to even dream of it? What with fighting selfish battles just to keep in step with the world, you and I have forgotten the rest of our kind, those who need our aid. At least I know I have.
But alls not lost. There is hope still, shining like the moon over a deep blue sea of calm. Shining in all its splendour for each to see, and believe. So, let us come together, dear Reader, and bask in the rays of hope.
If this is starting to seem a bit banal to you, I couldn’t agree more! So let me get straight to it.
On the 15th of October, 2008, no less than 20,000 bloggers are going to be making themselves heard, in a collective effort to discuss global issues, problems, and solutions related to poverty from their own unique viewpoints. You, dear Reader, can be a part of this and give hope a chance.
They say that the pen is mightier than the sword. If that be true, let us, together, prove them right twice over and keep hope alive!
gr8 thought!!
thanks dreammer… and welcome aboard!!
Hi!
I’m from a Third World Country as well, so I can deeply relate.
I’ve seen dreams dying almost everyday. But the amzing thing is that dreams seem to have this ability of resurrecting, given the right conditions… given that their owners find some rays of hope once again.
Hope. For most of us, it’s the only thing that’s keeping us from falling apart… or the one that let’s us stand up everytime we fall.
Great thoughts. And yes, I want to take part on the Blog Action Day. Thanks for letting us know.
Have a good day…
