Just think about it.....

Have you ever wondered, for just one second, how different your life would be if you scored 50 points lower on your SAT, grew up in a different state, socialized with different people, played a different sport in high school.  If you just think for one second how our surroundings choose who we become, you will begin to wonder, wonder if what you have is really what you really want.  There are six billion people in the world, six billion souls, and all of them are on a different path.  All of them are different, and come from different stations in life.  Some of them are working in the fields in Africa, or some of them are small children sold into slavery mining diamonds.  Others are just trying to get by on a minimum wage job, while others are taking shits on gold toilets.  There are people out there who have never held $20 in their hands, and there are people who haven't eaten for days.  For just one second, does anyone think of those people?  Probably not.  But if those people who took shits on gold toilets actually gave a shit, they would do something.  But that's the way the world works I guess.  But if you care, if you give a shit, do something about it.  There's more than ONE way to make a difference.  Visit www.one.org, and fight for a cause, fight for someone who isn't as lucky as you are.
