The Girl Who Silenced the World at UN for 6 minutes

Dear Friends

It had been awhile since I last posted.

Recently, the weather is scotching hot here in Asia and I believe many other parts of the world are experiencing much worst - like Australia's bushfires that wiped out an entire village. I think we should all re-think our daily ways of living and the waste we are creating. Imagine living in the "ultimate" world - all covered and filled with rubbish as featured in the movies "The City of Ember" and "The Terminator." We have all the wealth (no matter how small or large) compared to those who are completely deprived - starvation; lack of clean water, proper sanitation and shelter - we are blessed. Let's us bless others too in everyway we can.

Listen to this girl in the video below. Just 12 - 13 years old but she and her friends' minds are filled with such worries. How can we adults (even children) help - in our little and big ways? How?...



What CAN we do? What WILL we do? What MUST we do?

Let's re-think for our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren; and future generations of children to come.

Let's us begin to change our ways for the future!

Until my next post, let's solemnly re-think....

BUT MOST OF ALL ACT! Action always speaks louder than words. Talk is cheap...
