Change
May 06, 2015Change.
We all want it. Not a change in our lifestyles, but a change in our society. In our world.
We see horrible things happening to people who don't deserve it. We put on the news, we watch figures higher than us talk about these issues going on around the world - some may feel sympathy, some may change the channel, and some may actually want to fix the problem. I, for one, want to fix the problem.
Kony.
Words cannot describe how I feel about him and his actions. I watched the video yesterday - at the first couple of seconds, I felt intrigued, interested, and worried.
I couldn't take my eyes off it - I was connected with it, my heart fell apart.
The words he was saying were unbelievably powerful.
Jacob - such a lovely kid. I loved him already. Seeing his smile made me smile. I'm smiling right now as I write this! His English was amazing - definitely a bright kid.
But then he started talking about his brother. I felt everything he felt. Poor kid...he lost someone close to him. He doesn't deserve that. My heart was hurting, I couldn't stop crying. I wanted to hug him and tell him everything is going to be okay, although I knew it wasn't.
I continued watching the video and when I finished, I was left speechless. I was hurt, I was bothered, I was disgusted and I was more determined then ever.
