There is so much wrong with this world that it seems irredeemable. What baffles me is that some people seem unconcerned with the murder rate, the injustices, the sickness and all the other problems plaguing our humanity. I have always believed that world hunger could be ended with a million dollars being donated by all our entertainers, businessmen etc....that's one less Benz in the driveway, one less plastic surgery, one less expansive house you never use......one less jet, yacht, basketball court in the house and so on. Just give.....It doesn't have to happen more than once really, just give...something back/forward.
People are dying for want of food and health care, developing countries are submerged in squalor and debt to "first world nations", youths no longer care about living beyond 22, some video games continue to encourage and promote euphoria in taking a life and seeing blood spilled..... where is the responsibility, has the love of money replaced our hearts? Can't we see what's happening around us?
I would love to see more meaningful talks which leads to ACTION, not motivated by political and strategic alliances, or opportunities for raping a nation, but fuelled instead by the need to do unto others as you would have them do unto you....we should always remember that but for the grace of God, it could be you......I would like to see an end to the wanton hypocrisy of the G8 nations.......I would like to see each member of this earth taking the responsibility for each other and helping where we can.

Amen girfriend
Hey Lot....I had to get that off my chest after being bombarded by an acquaintance who couldn't stop gushing about his new customized Benz.....A percentage of its cost could have given some kids a warm place to sleep and a full tummy....yet he would not donate to charity....he was acting as though there was some great benefit to this "accomplishment". I asked him how he was gonna drive the two vehicles.
