supporting a cause

**disclaimer** this video contains 1 or 2 cuss words, sorry for those who might be offended... Its really not bad at all, however you dont have to listen, but its eye opening



Okay guys...

The title says it all... "Has passion replaced common sence?"
For all of you guys out there eager to join up and "fight a cause"!!
For all of you that have signed a petition because someone you know signed it.
For me, this video was exactly the way I view most of the "activist" out there!
Now, I am not saying that we shouldnt put our resources we have to good use.
There are just far too many people out there that blindly jump into...

"SUPPORTING A CAUSE"

Supporting it just to be able to say that in thier life they stood for something!
I am sorry if I sound synical, but this video proves my point far better than I can articulate it. Why? Why do people get so passionate about things they know so little about? Why dont more people do a little research on what the crud they are doing and saying. No wonder there are so many things wrong with the world. If WE as a people would spend 10 minutes doing a little brain work and soul searching before we jumped into "whatever it is" that were supporting just think what we could accomplish. Literally there are hundreds of places you can get plugged into that support something that is TRULY worth it and positive. Life changing stuff. If you want to be a part of "something" take 5 minutes... look and see whats out there... I am NOT even talking about other countries or big charities... Look around your own city. There are places that you can do something, or at least support it. Not all of us are wealthy, not all of us can grab a shovel, not all of us can counsel, not all of us can organize. Do what you can, just make it count for something that will change someones life. Even if you will NEVER see it changed yourself.

Dont be blindly passionate about causes... support the causes that make you blindly passionate!

ok ..climbing off the soap box....
